    Brought one!!

    Got the silver 98 STi wagon, I will up date with photo's once I down load them from my camera. Its been a huge weekend for me so just getting a chance to play with it now.

    I have ordered a complete major service pack from Subaru, going to go through it and service everything, that way I know its right from the get go. Over $1k in parts along :eek: good thing the labour is cheap...

    Driving experence so far....even though I am not going to drive it hard till the service is done.....this thing is properly quick, I am impressed.

    Thanks guys!!

    The color is growing on me slowly, I painted the wheels gun metal yesterday so that has improved things..

    Looking forward to pulling her apart and making sure everything is spot on..

    Haha, yep, pull it a part and break it, then fix it and forget how to put it back together, a few spare bolts is normal??

    Can't remember what my first toy was :eek:

    :D

    I wanted a white sedan so I guess the is close :rolleyes:

    :D

    It's a tidy car though, and that's what really matters.
