WDC, VA and MD area new STi owners are looking to organize a weekend ride & drive to help kill off some STi 'break-in' miles while providing those less fortunate an opportunity to ride along and drool.

Yup!! Did you get the other blue with silver wheels or one of the white ones? Hopefully you didnt get sucked into their "market adjustment" fee!

very cool to connect with you and to see you're on the forum. i got the white/gold. you picked up yours the day before i got mine. and no, i didn't get sucked into that stupid market adjustment fee. in fact, there's a thread on the forum about my experience dealing with that. kinda funny to read it now.

what's your mileage now? i'm at around 3800. any pinging problems? do you live in the area? i'm surprised i haven't seen you on the road. i live basically across the street (to the north) of mt vernon.

believe it or not I just hit 900 miles...not even my 1000 break in yet!! I'm still keeping it under 4000 rpms and its a pain! I live in falls Church ..night be the reason why we havent crossed paths. Have you seen this thread yet? http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=4157409#post4157409 A few of us locally are organizing a drive through the area.. mostly to burn off break-in miles for those STI newbees!

That was the warm up drive (I didnt make it..not enough notice..about 4 cars I am told). The "official" drive is being headed by Janq and has not happened yet.. Looking at August. There are over a dozen interested drivers so it should be a good time :lol:

[4MLA1FN]
