    I just purchased a 2003 sonic yellow wrx sedan from detroit lakes.

    Special thanks to olegrad for going with me to purchase the car and for haggling the price down. Olegrad also drove the car back from the dealership since I am new to driving manual.

    I will also like to thank vandelor for giving me some pointers and for providing me with the software to diagnose the car before purchasing it.

    I will post up some pics later tonight or sometime tomorrow.

    Quick shots outside my house

    Nice find. There's getting to be a lot of sonic yellow bugeyes in the cities these days.

    Don't forget to join the Bugeye Mafia.

    It's your civic duty as a bugeye owner ;)

    Try flying down to Corpus Christi, Texas to get a WRX.

    And yes, it was worth every minute and mile spent over the two day drive back to be able to stare at the Bugeye I park in my garage every night.

    Congrats again on your new car and I hope you enjoy it as much as many of us enjoy ours.

    Hmmm... Maybe you should keep the spirit of the Taxi going?
