edgar,
Carlsen are badass...got my STi there.
Stevens Creek suck...the salesperson was pretty rude.
I've only email exchanges with other dealers. Ron Price, the dude was very very helpful, but he couldn't find my car. Some others that I can't remember

Good advice..Been on phone with Carlsen Subaru today...seem pretty reasonable. for car salesmen

steven's creek is where I test drove - the guy was real laid back...didn't care about making a sale it seemed

That's an unusual Stvns Crk visit. Most of the time they attack like a hive of killer bees, but instead of stingers they have loads of BS to attack you with.

make sure you figure out what YOU want, and dont settle for anything less, if your gonna spend that much money on something make sure you like it. oh yeah and the 2006 wrx's are going to have a 2.5l engine (so i hear?) so you might want to wait on that.

I didn't bother reading if you want a new or used subaru, but honestly I would not recomment buying a used WRX from a dealership. Private party is another story, you can talk to them and get a feel for if they beat the crap out of it or not. From a dealer, you really have no idea.
