Default Chris' 06 STI

Hey P-rex.

I've been lurking on the forums for a while now, and thought it was about time to introduce myself.

My names Chris, I'm 19. I've always been into cars, imports, v8's, supercars etc. But Ever since going for a spin in my mates GC8 6 years ago. I just had to have one! So with some hard work and saving i picked up my 06 STI. bit of a step up from the lancer i drove around in for 3 years...

Love the car, great performance, handling and really enjoyable to drive!

The car is pretty much stock atm but the Current Mods are;
-Exhaust
-full Alpine stereo (if you count a stereo as a mod)

Short term future goals are mainly cosmetic. Rims, Lowering, front lip.
Long term goals, well we'll see what the future holds!

Cheers guys, look forward to meeting some of you in the future!
Chris.

Welcome aboard Chris. I had the exact same model (pig) and colour DGM. Such a good car and I wish I still owned it. Turbo back exhaust and tune will net you some awesome gains for relatively small dollars ($2.5K) and coilovers $1-2K

Welcome to the forums. Nice ride for 19 mate, well done for saving up and getting something you wanted.

I hate to think what your insurance premium is though.

What is the insurance premium on one like that? I'm also 19 and have a 2011 WRX (with mods though).. Wonder if it's similar?

Most likely similar to yours man, I went for high excess and a lower monthly rate... Its not THAT bad
