New member, not yet a new owner (but I'm actively looking to change that). I've been looking for a clean STi in good condition for about 2 months now in the Bay Area but haven't had any luck. Every car I find has been modified or driven into the ground! Oh well, I'm optimistic.

I've been active on BimmerForums.com for years (used to own an e36 m3), and hope to be active on this forum into the future!

Welcome! and good luck with your search!

 

autotrader.com keyword sti open search to 200 miles.

 

I've definitely been steadily expanding my search...the car I'm looking at tomorrow is about 120 miles away

 

I bought it, an '06 STi with 61k miles! Here we go...

 

^You def got the best year-06 STi ftmfw! Welcome & good luck, you'll have some real fun now lol.

 

 

^sweet have fun with it and stop by the meets

 

how much did the sti cost you and what were the miles. I want to compare prices

 

61k miles. I bought it for about $500 under KBB minus the estimated cost of repairs, things like new brake pads, belts, and tires.

 

Damn, black with goldies, ****ing hella nice man!

 

very nice pick up! I see you have 07 centercaps on your BBS's (love the gold wheels!).

congrats, welcome to the board, and enjoy your stay!

Be glad you got the 06 and not 07...less problems from the factory tune. a little surprised you came from the M3 world, but then again, i guess maintenance and parts in the subie world are a bit cheaper

 

I know M3's in and out, but I was getting irritated by all the electrical problems that were constantly presenting themselves. Plus the M3 couldn't take me to the mountains in a snowstorm.

Niceee. Where in the Bay are you?
