Hello,
I got my very first Subaru in Oct '08. Buying the STi was the best decision I have ever made. Thank gawd I didn't get another suv. I had a Ford Explorer for 7 years. It was awesome driving it, but I needed a change. I def wanted a more sportier car. I was actually thinking of the EVO X, but no trunk space and the car actually felt smaller than the STi. I def needed trunk space and all wheel drive capability. Comparing the EVO X and the STi, I actually liked the look of the hatch better ( I hate hatches!!), but I loved the new look. I have always liked STi's so I had to get one for myself.
At first, driving the car stock was just a dream on its own. Then I started reading and looking through at all the threads about the car and how awesome stg 1 was and how it changes everything. I had to get it and I got it, and I loved it even more. now, the power bug hit me and I had to get more.
I love boardings so I had to get a roof rack and all weather tires.
I went up to New Hampshire and other places on the east coast a couple times this year, and the car is awesome for road trips. The car is comfortable and smooth.
and so here it is... for now
