    Hello!!! I joined this forum when I was much younger (~19 years old) with hopes of finding a slick deal on a Subaru. That never happened. Well, I graduated college, got a job, moved across the country, moved back to MN, bought a BMW, sold a BMW, bought my wife a forester, fell in love with the platform, and FINALLY bought myself a 2014 WRX.

    I bought the vehicle off a dealer in the south metro, Rav Motors, who deals with many salvaged auction vehicles. Frame and suspension looked untouched from the original salvaged title. 8k on the engine and it was mine.

    I currently have a Perrin downpipe and a grimmspeed EBC sitting in my garage ready to go in the car when I decide i have the funds to buy some engine management/tune for them.

    Nah, the garage was Duluth. I think the DECC garage.

    I refused to find anything newer than 2014 due to the hatch being... "sunset"
