    Just bought a 2008 Dark Gray Metallic WRX Sedan a few weeks ago. Probably the best and fastest car i have ever owned...lol. Wanted some thing that was all wheel drive and had some power to go with it. I have always liked the older style WRX's but when i seen 2 2008's listed for sale in a 100 mile radius, i jumped on it and ended up with what i have now. Couple weeks after i got it, driving home from work next to a school bus on the highway, i seen some thing out of the corner of my eye and a loud "thud". thinking "What the F%&$ was that?". Came home to realize a piece of concrete or a medium sized rock hit my car. Dented part of the fender and the pilar. Little over $1k in damage. Was lucky enough to find a body shop in St. Paul to have it fixed. Just hope i made the right choice in trading up to this car when i've never had to bring a car into a shop for some thing like that. Look forward to meeting some of you in the near future.
