Exclamation Can a dealership out there put me in a STi..?

Are there any dealerships out there who are willing to work with customers and do whatever they can to put a person in a car (STi 04-05)? I already have an 08 STi, but my wife likes the 04-05 STi's and we want to put her in one. So if there is anyone with good information as what dealership or a specific person to talk to lmk, that is all i want to know! Thanks!

hahaha yes she is, I want to put her in one right now. The thing is that she currently drives an Accord wich she still owes money in. We are looking for a dealership that is flexible and can help us out in trading it in... but we will have to see.

Last time I was at Capitol Expressway they had a couple of pig-noses sitting out front.
There is a used car lot in San Jose on 7th and Keyes that seems to specialize in Subaru
I don't know much about them but drive past daily and see Subies on the lot

I would suggest that you sell the Accord private party and then buy a used STi private party.

i agree you will also save a lot of money in taxes if you know what i mean and this way you might be able to get an idea of how the car was driven.

Your going to be jealous of your wife's STi and start driving her's more then you drive yours!

The 04-05 STi is SUCH A NICE LOOKING CAR! Soooo sexy. I still don't like the new STi as much as the 04-05.


New STi should have taken styling cues from the Daewoo Lanos:


I swear to you, I think this lanos looks sooooo much better then the new subaru hatch. At least the STi looks pretty decent, but the base model is just awful... AWFUL!

Compare:

Lanos:




Impreza 2.5i





It's a really, REALLY sad day when an f'ing LANOS looks a lot better then our beloved subaru! I can't get over how ugly that base model is... The sedan is just as awful too. I can't wait for the face lift.


Good news is that you're going to have an 04-05, the bad news is that when you park them next to each other the 08 will look even worse.

Did you buy your car new or used? If you got it used, do you mind if I ask how many miles, what mods, and how much you paid?

I think going private is going to be the way to go for a used car, unless you find the used one you want at a dealership.
