    Hey guys,

    Well its about time that I actually own a "Subaru" now that the Saabaru is gone.

    Here is is...2008 WRX STi, in Aspen White :D Picked it up in Las Vegas a couple weekends ago and drove it back. Bone stock and planning on leaving it that way...for the time being anyway (ok, I already picked up black Enkei RPF1's with snow tires). The STi is takes it to a whole new level and my driving skills need to get up to the STi's level before I can think about modding!

    Here's a quick pic, don't mind the ghetto-ness of my back alley lol.

    It looks good man!
    You must have driven through Colorado then. The freeway through CO is curvy and beautiful especially at this time of year.

    Thanks! I actually saw that there is another track day at BIR this weekend, and I'm tempted to go. If I wasn't on these heavy stock wheels (28lbs apiece :facepalm: ) and all seasons, I would! I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to drive the CTS-V on the track at the Autobahn Country Club this last weekend (video to follow soon), and it made me miss the full track (vs autox)! I need to stop talking about it and just man-up and go to BIR next year!

    Well I'll be up there helping some friends/team sort out their car. I don't plan on instructing that day but will be giving out rides here and there. Feel free to come out and hang out with us.

    Congrats! Great looking ride! I know that they are heavy, but as far as looks go, those are some of my favorite stock wheels! Enjoy!!!
