Sad to leave the Subie community
Well, yesterday I traded in my '10 WRX for a '13 Mini Cooper S. Back story is last year I started a new job and my commute went from 10mi to almost 30mi one way. So I needed something with better mpg's and fun. I initially was just gonna get the Mini Cooper (non-S) but I received a hell of a deal on the trade in that I just went for a base Cooper S.
Anyway, I enjoyed i-club and the Subie experience. So long and thanks for the good reads!

Had to offset to carbon footprint of the WRX somehow lol..but in all seriousness, that the wife's work car. Our personal second car is a 10 y/o volvo S40 that we are going to sell and get a used miata 
We'll be basically sharing cars. So the wife is stuck with manuals .

Bro, you just bought a Mini. You'll be back to Subaru's soon enough, maybe normally aspirated like me, but you'll be back.
In the meantime keep my contact info handy, you'll be needing parts soon enough, just drive down a few blocks and introduce yourself to your neighbor J.C. who's the guy with the silver one and ask him about the maintenance.

Another ex-Subaru owner. My 2001 WRX finally expired back in March. I had owned it from new and I had a huge amount of fun over the years. I decided to sell it on as a PNO because I figured it was time for a change. I haven't replaced it yet, so I'm motorcycle only at the moment. I need to test drive a new WRX/STi and a BRZ among others.
