I purchased this 2005 STi from a car dealer in Cartersville, GA, just northwest of Atlanta. It had 105,000 miles. I was looking specifically for a car in excellent Shape cosmetically, mostly stock look, inside and out. I had a local shop inspect the car for any major issues. It seemed to pass general inspection, no accidents, nothing major was obvious.
I have made changes and improved almost every aspect of the cars performance. Below are the details.
Items in Black were installed when I purchased the vehicle
Items In GREEN are improvements I made
