    About 12:30pm today, I saw the most beautiful SJ Forester XT I have seen yet in the Bloomington REI parking lot. DGM, black Enkei(?) wheels, exhaust (Maybe SPT or invidia?), front window tint, emblem overlays, and just was a nicely put together vehicle.
    Note: I cruised around it to get a good look at it, but then realized you were still in there. Not sure if you saw me wave, but sorry for being awkward. haha.
    Second Note: I came out of the store and saw a brand new Prius parked next to me. I was intrigued, mortified, and grateful (he left a huge amount of space between my doors and his) all at the same time.

    Was down at the 100 Acre Wood Rally this weekend for Morries. Saw literally every year WRX and STI in just about every color. A white 05-09 Legacy GT Wagon (Drool) A LIFTED TURBO 5-SPEED BAJA. A 10-12 silver LGT (Only the third I've ever seen, and I work for a Subaru dealership!

    Also, not a subie but a RHD Diesel 2-door Landcruiser. Thing was awesome!

    Must have! Do you take "first borns" as payment? Or cash would work too i suppose.

    Chatted a little with @silver03 on bunker on the way to work today and thanks I wasnt sure how the flowmaster would sound on the Forester after it being on the wrx but I think it was a good choice over the tsudo mega fart can on it that wasnt long enough for the Forester. Also spotted a blue blobeye wagon turning left onto main st from 7th, gave you thumbs up

    Your Forester sounds outstanding! Maybe even sounds faster than it really is? ;)

    No SPT for you until all three of your kids have graduated from high school.

    Switched to LA Fitness recently, and have been going to the Uptown location in Calhoun Square, and the ramp always has at least 3 FR-Ss (2 red, one orange) and a 15/16 White WRX. The WRX looks very clean.

    It's amazing how many Subarus you see here compared to other states. Two weekends ago I flew to Raleigh, NC and drove to Myrtle Beach, SC. Saw one modified '15ish WRX cruising the strip at the beach, and a bright pink plasti-dipped Legacy on the trip down. Don't even recall seeing many stock Subarus.

    Saw a DGM or black '12+ Impreza heading north on 169 around 5PM yesterday, avoiding debris in the middle of the highway in Eden Prairie. Tinted windows, I believe tinted taillights, roofrack, lowered, etc. @subiesport15 was that you?

    I feel like you've done a bunch since I saw you last, but saw you so quickly, I couldn't tell everything. What'd you lower it with?
    Got my '16 two weeks ago, already have everything from my '12 swapped on, plus the STi spoiler.

    Saw a silver Forester XT turning to go north on 65 from bunker debadged too. Then I stopped in at my part time job and on the way out I saw @Mokamba and chatted for a little bit. Good sounding exhaust too, what did you do to it? Told you my Forester was hard to miss lol. You should also sign up for the LaXcruise its a blast!

    He has a resonated midpipe and an ISR performance axle back. Not sure how it was retrofitted on but it looks and sounds nice for sure.

    Im not 100% sure I bought the car like that lol. But I know that the rear windows can be as dark as I want cause its considered a suv. I also know the fronts are technically too dark but I havent had any problems yet and the previous owner that had them done didnt have any problems either so it is what it is lol. The bad thing about the dark tint tho is at night backing up its kinda tough but Ill prolly end up taking the tint off the reverse lights just to give me more light to see

    Maybe the exhaust is quieter on the new car. Next time I'll give it the beans and not concentrate so much on my wave.

    That was me in the '15 DGM STi. That was a cool drive to work - not often do I see another STi, especially another of the same year...and then a '15 WRB WRX on top of it.

    I'm on 169 out to Ramsey every g'damn day, so i'm sure i'll bump into you again. You work on 109th and 169, right?
