Didn't you have a Suubie?

You didn't trade it in did you???

 

[Spicy McHaggiz]

Technically I still have the WRX until wednesday.

And yes its getting traded in.
For a few reasons:
Mileage, its got 81K on it and I'm dreading the 100K maintenance
Fuel Consumption: I get 16 city, plus I'm tuned for 93 oct
Transmission, suby is an auto
weight, shes a heavy bitch with the awd which kills gas
the car also has hail damage and a badly cracked windshield that developed last week. Insurance is raping us

Plus this new car has a LOT of cool features, like the panoramic roof, power everything, liftback, etc etc. Its really not a downgrade.

Let me know how you like it...my g/f was looking at one of these and after some research it looks like a decent car. (if job things pan out may be picking her up one sometime in the near future)

I got a chance to read the CONSUMER REPORTS mag. and looked at this car. They rated it VERY well, was even a "recommended" car. Also had one of the lowest reported problems list and some other good things said about it.

I'm extremely excited now

A toyota, ummm well good for you

Yea, also pricing a brand spanking new with some nice upgrades(stereo and performance) for right around $20g....looked like a good deal.

that shifter is way too high by the way

 

[Spicy McHaggiz]

It is really high, hence the Dr. Isotope short shifter I'm ordering this week. (yes I know short shifter doesn't mean shorter height, but it has adjustable height!)

 

[IDAFC21]

adjustable really is the way to go. ive got the cobb double adjustable on my wrx and i love it. can adjust the height and throw.

rallysportdirect.com makes an adjustable billet one for the gto, its 400 bones but its an unbelieveable shifter. i'll be pickin that up once i get me some cash to burn

Cobalt? WTF?

subaru to a scion... wtf?

i dont get it either.... i have a friend that had a turbo one; lame. put down 315 to the wheels and was still slow... and ugly.

 

[syP]

i still dont get it..



i think a wrx to a scion is a downgrade.


i upgraded my car and it gets better gas mileage.

that seems to be your only "perk" with the scion.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

dont you know fwd is awesome!

 

[syP]

woulda kept AWD... especially for winters
