I guess in a way it's just learning how to use a new thing, but still lame.. I like how precise the throttle is in the RS with the new mounts and such.

Santa Cruz didn't have even one '06 WRX Wagon. 2 STi-L's though.. **** those are nice.

Cypress Coast Subaru in Seaside, CA has several 06 Wagons....

You should be able to get Santa Cruz to do an inventory swap or something along those lines...

What color are you looking for...?

I'd be willing to swing by after work tomorrow and see what's currently on the lot.

Thanks for checking! I am looking for a steel grey WRX wagon. I also hadn't seen the new seats before, and I don't like them (cloth). I am a couple miles from Carlsen, so I would check with them I guess. Have to see what the 'right' price is and of course if I can sell my RS.

Bwaaaa.... That would be classic with those two cars back in the same driveway. I am trying to figure out what is fair for the car right now. Most likely hopefully somewhere near KBB value.

I couldn't find one easily, so I am selling 2 cars and then I will just keep my eyes open for a SGM wagon w/ leather and a boost gauge. Some springs would rock too as the one wagon I saw at Carlsen looked like it had a lift kit!

I really want to drive one though because it's been a long time, and I love the way my RS drives. Can you make a wagon handle?

Well I finally drove an '06 wagon today and I am sold. Gonna pull a few things off my coupe and put it for sale. The '06 is sweet, love the 2.5's low-end and the shifter/clutch action is much nicer. The whole car is flippin sweet. Little too much body roll, but that can be fixed and I think I am spoiled with my coupe.

I'm closer to Carlsen but went to Livermore instead, they seem to have more steel greys. $25k otd for my '06 wagon.
