One year ago today
I bought my WRX. Now, 19,000 miles later, I couldn't love the car more. It's been so great and so capable. It rescued my sister from Grass Valley during a huge snow storm (in December) while running on performance street tires, it gets me to work on days like this when wind and rain are heavy. It's got seats that selflessly hold my friends and a trunk that could carry the heaviest of loads. Buying the car got me to find this, and some other Subaru forums, and I've made some really great friends because of it.
I love my Subaru. So, on this day, write about why you love your Subaru and the BAIC community. When did you get your car and what fun, or odd experiences have you had in it?

only 19k....lucky you.
I'm over 14k and it's been....lets see......about 6 to 6.5 months.
So sad. I hope to stay under 25k for the year.
as for times with my car.
Few weeks ago I ripped some huge snow donuts.
Hopeing to have a safe trip into the face of a blizzard tonight on my damned re92's half worn down. Gonna have to be on my toes at 2am if that's possible.
If it's clear I'll take some pictures for you guys tomorrow for your enjoyment.
Besides the big donuts....I look back fondly on my first traction failure do to damned tires. My first modification. My first trail brake u turn. My first time passed the chain controls without stopping. I look back sad about my first and third scratch. My first dent. The rabid disapearence of 0's on my odometer.
