Omgwtfbbq!!!!

w00t!!

Today is an awesome day! I got a call from my bank and said that I was approved for my new car loan. And I've basically sold my old car. The buyer is coming Saturday to pick up the car.

So hopefully I'll be driving my brand spanking new '05 WRX by sunday!

I used to own a '98 2.5RS which I turbo charged, but then sold that and bought an RX-7. But I missed my subaru sooo much, I just had to come back! I've been planning on getting one for so long, and it's finally happening.

BTW, this will be my first "brand new" car. How long is the break in period? 1000 miles? Or does it take longer than that.

Here are pics of my old Impreza, hopefully some of you will recognize it and remember who I am. And hopefully I'll be able to make it to the UCKK meets again.















Hopefully you guys don't mind me posting this thread. I was just so freaking excited I had to post!

-Paul (your friendly neighborhood douche bag)

Congrats! Breakin is technically 4K I think, but just be good to it for the first 1000 and you'll be fine.

Yeah I'd just stay off boost for +- 1500 miles and just treat it nice for a couple more thousand miles.
Nice car BTW.

Never dyno'd it. But ran at 13.2 at Sears Point, well it's not sears point anymore, but was when I went there. I know that's not super fast compared to what you can get out of WRXs, but I was more than happy with that.

No, the pictures were taken on the top of the parking structure at Vallco mall. But I do go to de anza. This is my last quarter there.

I thought about it, but I'll be very happy with an '05. If the '06 models look anything like the concept pictures that are all over the forums... then I'll be glad I didn't buy an '06. The peanut headlights are actually my favorite. And I'll be fine with a 2.0L engine.

Man if you were already doing 13.2's with an oldschool RS, I think you should go straight to STi-land. I hope you wont be dissappointed with a slow WRX's like mine

What he said, if you ran a 13.2 you'll either want an STI or new 06 wrx.

Why are you going through your bank? Are you getting a super low interest rate, because subaru might still be doing 2.9%

Correct. Much better torque. But possibly harder to get a better price.
