Just bought a '06 WRB STi

I saw this deal for a '06 WRB STi w/ 4k miles on craigslist and I thought it had to be some sort of scam. I'm glad I checked it out though. Had the car inspected by AutoHQ and Kevin gave the big thumbs up! A week later he drove down to Monterey and signed some papers with the bank and I got my "new" car. Sat in it and it still had the new car smell lol. Completely stock besides lugs and SPT intake w/ heatshield.

Here's some pics (btw my photography sucks)

I paid 27k for it. He wasn't extremely firm on the price but he did have a lot of interest in the car so I wasn't going to take that chance. I think it was a pretty fair price considering the condition of the car, plus I really wanted this car

Glad to get back into Subarus again. My first Subaru, an 05 AW STi, actually spun a rod, blew the turbo, and a blown headgasket within 3 weeks of me owning the car. Luckily I was able to get my money back from the stealership and 4 months later here I am, back again to Subaru.

DatsiK and Excision have my vote for my favorite right now. Rusko, Caspa, Skream and Bassnectar are up there too! But yeah that sounds sick, I'll definitely check it out

Yeah I went to a meet with some of the guys when I had my '05 STi. I'm definitely going to tag a long next time they head up there.

Man that is a fantastic find. Can't imagine how the previous owner kept the mileage so low. I know, b/c I try and it's freakin' hard. Also if you have any dubstep recommendations, I've been recently taking more interest in it and am trying to learn what I can.

I see 06-07 used STis at dealerships on CL going for $28k and they have 48-60k miles on them. You just bought a brand new car at a used car price. Lucky dog.
