Spotted a black 06-07, I believe, it was an STI. It had a painted red line grill, nice bright HID and nice amber color center lights. I flashed my blinkers and you did your highbeams.

I think that was me - my wife to be and I were getting booze.

I don't think I've done an 'introduction' post so here you go:

Hey everyone, name's Roy; about 60 days ago I became the proud owner of a 06 OBP WRX with 9,900mi on her. =D

Bay Area native here - if you live/work in Palo Alto, Los Altos, SJSU, or Sunnyvale you've probably seen/heard me (SR-S exhaust came with the car, a little loud for my taste but 3'' piping is worth it).

Speaking of which, saw a nice 06/07 WRB WRX going northbound on 280 about 5 miles from Page Mill Blvd today - threw up the V and got the nod and rev.

Good stuff - I work on Ramona St. so you'll see me up and down Alma/Forest/Oregon Expressway.

You or your husband wouldn't happen to work at City Hall would you? And park in the underground lot?
