Default Hello!

G'day all, I've been keeping a close eye on this site for a month or so, but now have a subi, so thought it was the ideal time to introduce myself.

Name is Darryl aka Daz & have just purchased a new STI. Looking forward to meeting everyone on the next pwrx cruise!

Daz

Welcome

like ImPreSiv said: MY11/12 STI?!?!?

Either way, Nice choice. Wish I had the money for that, but in saying that if I had that money it would just find its way into my car.

Thanks for the welcome! Yes, MY12 Spec R, manual sedan in WR Blue.

It is the first Subaru I've owned. I was in the market for a new car that doubles for a bit of track work, but is still comfortable enough as a daily driver. So glad I didn't go the FPV/HSV route, as I am absolutely speechless by the STIs performance.

Can't wait to get it on a track as it simply outperforms the street & no doubt, a license.

I took a standard WRX for a test drive & loved it, however, for track work, I felt I needed the extra braking power and gear box. As soon as I took the STI for a test drive, I was sold.

Bit excited aren't I... hahaha.

Pity I can't LIKE a post more then once.

A little excited? thats fine I was over the moon when I picked mine up (and its a 2004), it's like having a 1500KG turbo child being brought into your life,and if you get bitten by the modification-bug then it will cost as much as a child

EDIT: STI > HSV/FPV every time
