    Just picked up a new 2011 Subaru WRX 5 Door and thought I would post some pictures. :)

    The car was pretty hard to come by. Ended up getting it shipped in (dealer trade) from Indiana. It was the only one on the lot in the country (black 5 door)! It is my first Subaru. My last car was a 1999 Honda Accord, so this is much more fun. Looking forward to trying it out in the MN snow!

    Car isn't real clean. As I'm sure you all know it was not great weather this weekend. I didn't even wash it, just parked and snapped some shots. I love the '11 wheels and the widebody look, can't stand the clear tail lights. Here are the photos:

    Mmm sexy time. Congrats on the car. It's a big improvement visually for the wrx to get the wide body fenders imo and the clear tail lights have been ugly since 06 haha.

    I agree on both counts.

    BTW, I drive down Silver Lake Rd twice a day. Maybe you'll see me around...

    Thanks! When you finish your project, maybe we can do a photoshoot :)

    Black all the way for me. White would probably be second though.

    Thanks. Definitely a lot of good Subaru info out there!

    Thanks!

    for sure, a lot of changes are under way right now with it tho, so it'll likely be a while.

    Nice car! Have fun. And agreed on the rear tails my 2009 has the same problem. Tint will get done sooner or later. Hopefully sooner.

    Sounds good. Hopefully it's sooner, rather than later.

    I agree. I like the dark grey look. Had similar color wheels on my last car.

    I wish someone would just sell OEM quality red/clears. On my Honda you could find these EVERYWHERE. I had a set that looked just like stock (except red/clear).

    Not a big fan of the red stitching down the middle of the seats. Otherwise, Interior looks identical to my 09, minus the telephone controls on the steering wheel.
