A Norcal Non-Suby member. Oh the humanity.

Figure I should post some kind of introduction on here.

Been going to the Sac Meets as well as one Elk Grove meet over the past number of months but usually as the "significant other" of the actual Subaru owner, My gf, i<3subaru.
Also been brave enough now to bring my Altima out to the meets because the GF and I are typically coming from opposite directions.

There you have it. An introduction.

Its a pretty solid car. I had a 94 Altima that I got into an accident with 7 years ago. Rear ended another car, but despite having airbag hanging out, and a little bunched up front end. Car started back up and I drove it another month before handing it over to the Insurance for nice little check. Funny part, i only had that car for about 9 months. Given how much I paid and what I got from the insurance, I was only 300 out of pocket.

According to your model.. 5 model years between new cars.
From my 94 Alty ---> 2k Alty -----> I guess I'll be driving an '06 Subbie ?

That looks like good math.


if you want a new one you can use this calculation: I go 5 years between cars. So you have to add that to your 2006 ......... you get a 2011 Got to fudge the numbers a bit haha

I kinda like Math.. well...kinda. If I had to pick 06... Probably be STI. But More focus would be rally style, or rally prep. But I would need a little more funds than what I'm currently getting from EDD.
