Oooh, a cool salesman at Roseville Subaru
So stoped by Roseville Subaru to see if any 05's came in... (Yes they did, more on that later) And I always dread going there, and try to avoid any salesmen I can. But one came up to me and asked if they could help, and I asked about the 05's, and hes like "Oh ya, we did just get some in! I got dibs on the Crystal Gray STI though" LOL! Anyway, he was Mike Lagandon, cool guy aparently posts on WRXlinks alot and has seen I-club/Nasioc before. I was there with my mom too, as we are trying to replace our aging Aerostar with an XT 
(my dad was on the bandwagon but jumped off... so now we wait for the new Outbacks then we can put him back into an XT) and he wasnt pressuring us or anything, we just talked about cars in general and the new models, good stuff, I always like it when I run into a good salesman like that 
Anyway, the 05's are quite different. The new WRX 16" wheels arent that bad (they are gunmetal-like which is cool, and dont look as puny as the 02-04 stock wheels) The interior is definatly much better, alot like the XT. I love the new steering wheels!!! The Crystal Grey is awesome, although it could be a shade darker. The Obsidian black is also nice, its ALMOST a pure black (with sporatic really small blue flakes that are almost impossible to see, but I think they might have just been reflective metalic paint specs) and that extra rear bumper fender isnt that bad, it definatly gives more room back there... The new STI control links are wierd though.

That guy is ok. He was thinking of buying Egans wagon after they fixed "some problem with the transmission" 
.
He was ok..seemed a little...F&F crowd to me. I prefer Jerry Hunter.

there are some cool peepz at roseville. i met the sales manager or something ~6 months ago in the oddest place.. a chevron near my house.. in the bay.. i guess he was going home from a Raiders game. anyways, he saw my car.. gave me props.. then offered me an STi right there for $2K off MSRP. and offered test drives. i never did go there though
