Opps, missed that obviously. Looked at you, looked at the car, saw all the windows and that's it :o

Yeah we got a bottle recently too during car purchase/handover, was shit though i think.
Thought that counted though.

Did you beat them down on the price so they maybe thought fuck ya? :)

Having said that we beat the poor bastard down pretty hard too.

Out of curiosity, did Subaru budge much on price?

No, I pushed hard as we got a nice discount on the BRZ but I was happy with the driveway price of the RS40 anyway they also gave me 4 weeks to sell my car which helped for the deposit.

Plates On

1st pic with plates and Perth WRX surrounds on, sorry for the iPhone lack of quality.

My thoughts so far on the car coming from a Modded but tiring 2001 Bugeye . . .

Good:

Stock handing, much less body roll than the stock Bugeye.
Recaro Seats
Short shifter and a slight gearbox whine makes it feel fairly racy to shift.
2.5L torque.
Big central tacho.
Easier for passengers to get in the rear.
60/40 split fold seats.
Body shape, spoilers, paint and rim colours.
Factory tint.
Stock exhaust has a bit of character to it.

Bad:

Gear knob
Stereo head unit
Small top mount intercooler
plastic plumbing bits
no boost gauge
brakes a bit weak
Chrome window detailing
Key fob design
double tapping the fob to unlock rear doors
Fuel consumption, noticeably more than the Bugeye

Thats it for now, will post updates (and better pics) as they happen . . .

Looking mint! :)

You can disable the double locking features, I think it explains how to in the manual.

I'll flick you a link for the service manual tonight, handy to have for removing interior trim :D
