Goodbye tC, hello WRX

[Spicy McHaggiz]

Got rid of that POS tC I'd been rocking since 2008. After the flood issue I said it'd been enough. Today I got in a 2006 Subaru WRX. It has 94XXX miles which is nothing to me. Car hauls ass.

Mods I know of:
-Hawk Pads and rotors
-New turbo (old had shaft play during protune)
-Exedy clutch
-Protune by Ptuning
-Cobb Accessport
-Tinted windows
-TurboXS catted turboback exhaust
-TurboXS TMIC

Let the fun begin!

Nice pick up. Looks like it's in good condition. Nice color too.

Time to update this signature.

Congrats on the pickup. Clean whip.

It was from the DC area I can tell. The front bumper is a little messed up but the dealer is going to fix it, and the rear bumper has some scratches. But honestly, the way this thing moves, I could care less.

The rims, and the lack of a sunroof make it look like a TR edition for that generation, amirite?

Nope, it's a "standard" WRX model.

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica]WRX is available in 2 new models for a total of 3 models. New for 2005 is a base WRX TR (Tuner Ready) sedan and a WRX Limited sedan and wagon (replaces the previous Premium sedan), in addition to the standard WRX sedan and wagon.[/FONT]

Basically it's not a stripped down version, and doesn't have leather and a sunroof.

Black mirrors are the tip off for a TR version. His are painted.

I'm always tempted to get back into a WRX for a daily driver. Enjoy it!

Definitely a huge upgrade over the tC! NICE!

I thought bmx said those cars are junk... Nice car!

 

[blakbearddelite]

I thought about getting one of those as DD before I picked up the G8.

I'm not a huge fan of imports, but that WRX is really sharp looking!

Halfway through a wash, clay bar, polish, wax, wash cycle. Depending on time and attitude of wife I might get some decent pics.

Haha, funny

Guess it's a step up from a Tc.

Get ready to change that timing belt soon.

I have 10K miles so about a year with as little as I drive. Plus it's not the first one I would do.
