    Hi all, my name is Cory, and im a student from the north metro (st.anthony new brighton area).
    ive been working on cars since i was about 14, but am currently going to school for automotive tech at st.paul college. i currently mentor at a my old highschools FIRST robotics program when not at school or work.

    Recently i sold my mazdaspeed protege, and picked up an 02 psm wrx from a guy in shakopee. looked clean, and i know about cars so it seemed like a good deal and i bit it, not really knowing much about its previous history. thought i might hop on her and look for the previous owner, and much to my surprise, found out it was user Dave0!

    im excited, to say the least, that my car was owned by someone that knew what they were doing (and documented it) for 90% of its life.

    well anyway thats a little about me, happy to be here and ready to learn!

    Haven't been hanging around, but a friend sent me this link. Glad to see the car is still around. Lots of good memories and fun times! Forgot how much I loved those wheels!

    Now about that stripe...

    Welcome Cory! I lived in New Brighton for about 3 years and got married at Hansen park. :)

    I'm also a fellow bugeye owner and currently have two! Lol.

    Keep an eye on the event section and come out to meet some of us! Also, if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

    the "impreza" stripe down the side? i kinda dig it, but also kinda wanna pull em off hahah. the wheels though, i love em, my friends love em, i get compliments on em, good choice, good choice. when i bought it, it was slammed on some decent coilovers. so much so that the mudflaps would scrape on jusssst about everthing. lifted it back up to rally status


    i love hansen! and yeah! it seems the suby guys have a stronger community then the mazdaspeed guys, so thats good, because i love going to meet fellow owners!

    thanks for the welcome!
