picked up a new daily driver last night (04 Subaru STi) pics/vids!

SVTdubs · 12-16-2007, 04:19 PM

Picked up a new daily driver yesterday. Its a BONE stock 04 Subaru STi with 45k miles on it. Its the rare black with gold flake STi and it has the BBS wheels. The previous owner got the FULL extended warranty, not just powertrain, and it is good until 6 yrs or 60k.
It has a very nice sound system with two JL amps, JL w3 sub and alpine head unit, the spoiler was taken off (thank god) and it has the lower front body kit on both sides taken off (sleeper look and not so low you hit **** anymore).
It also came with tinted windows, BRAND new tires on it as well as a set of one season winter tires, a roof rack for the snowboard/bikes, and a car cover. Also, it has lowjack and if the car moves at all after I lock it, it calls my cell phone to let me know the car has been moved. The body does have a 4" keymark on the hood and a small ding on the trunk from the trunk opening and hitting a snowboard on the roof rack but other than that, its mint.
My plans... leave it stock performance wise but change the pink sti emblems to silver or gold or something other than pink, put the stock sti emblem back on the trunk, and powdercoat the wheels graphite.
I am VERY impressed with this car. It has adjustable headlights (raise and lower depending on conditions), adjustable selection of which wheels you want to have power, an intercooler sprayer to cool down the charge and a bunch of other cool ass features. And to my suprise, its kind of quick for a 4 door car... a little quicker than I would expect, especially up here in this altitude.
Here is a vid of the first pull in the car. I ran from the VERY bottom (1500rpm or so) in second gear because I didnt want to shift second hard because Ive never driven an AWD car and I didnt want to break ****. I shifted pretty easy but it was still a clean run... check it out!

and the pics (the house in the background is the one I just bought!)

sorry about the sunlight but you get an idea of what the interior looks like

and the system I just put in today

overall Im VERY happy with my purchase, the car is a LOT of fun!
