    I've been on and off this forum for a few years now (more off than on). I've driven a 99rs for the last couple of years, and it's kinda taken a poo on me...so I've decided to upgrade. Found this beauty online and jumped all over it! I look forward to maybe meeting some of you and hanging out (and learning a lot)! See ya around!

    Excellent. Are you hanging onto the GC/GM? It'd be a shame to let it go...

    it honestly didn't look that bad too me. the rear fenders are starting to "honda" out on you but that just means it's time for a widebody :yumyum:

    how much do you want for it?

    How did I not see this? I drive through there every week to look at the cars (I only live a couple blocks away.) Nice find. Nice car.

    Were you going west on 94 today at around noon? I saw a car that matched yours exactly with no plates around then...thought of this thread when I saw it.:)

    It's the WRX, not the STI. But yes, a tune will make you very happy. :)

    Congrats on the car!!

    After reading a little bit on here about alarm systems...looks like it's kinda pointless, red blinky light will scare off the theives!

    Also, are there actually people out there who WANT 07 tail lights? How hard is it to find someone to trade with for their 04-05's?
