I guess I should come clean on what I've been hiding for a few days now...

The STi is up for sale! I have been thinking about selling it for a little while now. I've been racking up the miles like nobody's business and it's a good time to sell before depreciation really takes hold. I bought the car for $26K w/10K miles on it and now it's got almost 29K a little over 10 months later. It's just way too nice a car to burn up like that. I put it up on Craig's List last Sunday...

http://sacramento.craigslist.org/car/243475434.html

...and had a buyer about 4 hours later. The new owner is picking the car up on Saturday. It was definitely a big surprise. I was hoping I might have a little while longer to enjoy the car, but I sure won't complain about an easy sale. Don't verbally lash me too badly guys...

We don't keep too many of our cars very long and we usually break even or a little better. And thanks.

I looked all over i-Club yesterday looking for the TSB regarding the timing belt tensioners. I remember seeing it, but I was looking at alldata.com at the time, and I can't find the login and password that I was given.

I think I left that piece of paper at home.
