Nice dude, I like that color too. I wish i could afford a new car, but swapping seems more cost effective to me. But i really want a new car...:)

Its nice...not a huge fan of subys red though. Wheels look worse than the old stockers too. But that grill does look nice. I am a fan of the 5 doors, I will admit. If I could afford a new STi, I wouldnt hesitate to get one.

Im thinking of 18" black wheels with a polished lip. I figured I can go bling with this car because Im certainly not going racing in it.

Dealer-installed grillle? That looks better than the 'standard' snout.
Does it handle as well as the old car? Much more body roll? All the press says the new car is a lot softer, but I haven't tried it yet.
The hatchback is great on these, but the taillights are death. Excellent choice as a daily-driver though. :thumbup:

Screw complaining about it. I like it. I would buy one if I was going to get a new car.
It reminds me so much of the Euro spec SVT Focus which was a ****ing pimp car!

Well the grill and front and rear lip spoilers are purchased from Subaru pre-painted but I put them on and all 3 took about an hour with a good buzz from margaritas going. It does handle different, still sporty but not as stiff it is more plush and comfortable. Actually I would compare it to a legacy or BMW 5 series or something like that. It is much quieter @ highway speeds due to the window frames, and It is very good on gas righ tnow im averaging 25-26ish. Very very good in the snow, although I think my snows have something to due with that but it is much better then my rex. The AWD system is different then the rex as it is less powerful. Resulting in better driveability in the snow but still can have some fun in it. All in all it is probably my favorite car I have ever owned power aside. ~ok~~ok~
