    Hey all, Thought I would introduce myself, I posted on the Minnetonka discount thread and realized that as much as I have been reading threads on here the last few months I have not introduced myself and that was my first post.

    Anyway, In july my Jeep finally decided it didn't want to live anymore, Not willing to give up the AWD/4WD I have so gotten used to, I decided the next best thing was a Subi. Well its not the next best thing... It's the BEST thing. I picked up a 2002 WRX wagon. I love it! I lurk in a few other forums NASIOC and Dirty Impreza under EJ1096. I don't post much because I'm still learning. I have a bunch of experience working on cars but these Subaru's seem so much different with the boxer and AWD system. Any way... thats my story in a readers digest version.

    Incidentally, does anybody know a good shop for the times I just can't fix it in my garage?(lack of good tools) I'm in the big lake area but commute to the west metro for work.

    Welcome. I have an '03 WRX wagon that I have owned since new. They are terrific cars that are great fun to drive and also very practical. This is a very good site with an enthusiastic group of members that are very willing to share what they know.

    Have fun.
