    I ordered my 2012 WRX STI a few months ago and just drove it home. It has the STI short shifter, home link mirror, all weather mats, boost gauge and a few other items on it. I got a great deal on the car when custom ordering!

    Meh, not a fan of the white at all.

    ;)

    Nice looking ride and welcome back Jack!

    Those look like stock tires on snow...you planning on parking it for the winter or changing to some snows?

    difference between 2011 and 2012 wrx/STi is the front headlights. 2011 has shades around the headlights and the 2012 with the chrome headlights :D
    welcome back Jack!

    Only the 4 doors got redesigned wheels. Add to the list: new navi and a new color, Ice Silver, which looks fantastic and the silver deal in the middle of the trunk of 4 doors is now body colored. The WRX got PBP and an interior trim color change.

    Jack, did you do VIP or just haggle with the dealer?

    Thanks for the comments! I got rock bottom pricing. I paid $33K with over $1K in options on a custom order. I have All Season DWS Continental Tires on the stock rims now. This is my year round driver now. I sold the 2008 Corvette.

    Looks to be real close to VIP pricing there, very nice. Local dealer? You really swapped on all seasons? That's crazy talk.

    All Seasons since I'm super busy and usually melt my snow tires by brining them in beginning of June. I had no issues with All Seasons on my 05 STI or 07 WRX. Plowed through most anything even when nearly bald.

    very nice pickup... the Eau claire dealer seemed like a good place to deal with... had to get parts through them on the way to the parents one time and they were real helpful

    I'm assuming you got it at Chilson? I got my WRX there (makes sense, considering that's where I live)! Did they still have that white 2011 on the showroom floor?

    Nice find! At $33k, I should have pushed for more goodies with mine!
