did you send it yet? a few helpful edits:
first line, change to:
My name is Kevin Bui and I am writing to contribute my 1997 Impreza L to Readers’ Ride in a future issue of SubieSport. I am a full-time college student from UC Davis who loves his Subaru.
______
be confident...none of this 'hopefully' crap.
middle section is really good.
last line:
So many things that I want to say, but unable to do so in such a short letter.
^^^ is there a limit? this is your one chance...say what you came here to say. take this line out and add a paragraph or two.
Chage the next sentence to:
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to consider my ride for the Readers’ Rides section.
again...be confident...none of this 'hoping' they'll do something.
I hope this helps, I have a bit of successful experience with sponsorship letters, so just my .02 for yah. good luck!

Say that you are a chick, and get a hottie to pose with it. Guaranteed win in the Royal Rides contest. Otherwise, forget it
Readers Rides is doable tho

Hi all.
Do you guys think I got a shot at the readers' rides section in the Subie Sport magazine? My car is just another L. Doesn't make it that much different than any other L, but I think it could win with some nice pics, and the story that I send in with it.
If some chick with a hideous looking bugeye with a huge-*** Subaru decal and body-kit could win, I think I could at least give them a run for their money, too, right?
Someone told me that I had a unique L and that it was really the only one of its kind. Something on the lines that if you saw my car, you would instantaneously know that it was me.
Just want your two cents.
TIA.

Like I said, go for it. I plan on a sublission this year as well, once I get time for a good detailing, some paint touchup, and some small dent removal.
