Upgrade to 07 STI from 02 WRX - Pics updated

So my car finally gave way last week and I have been looking and test driving different vehicles at various dealerships. I finally found an 07 STI Limited and I test drove it a few times and really liked the feel and power. This is really my first car purchased from the dealer and after everything is done I feel guilty. I know this is not a car I need but I do like and can afford it. Anyone else have this feeling after spending 20+K on a new car? I have always bought cars used and paid full but this one I financed.

Welcome, and nice car you just got! Please take your car to a shop you trust and get a compression test, the 07 sti tend to have some engine issues, and if the car is stock get off that factory tune ASAP!

I felt the same way at first when i picked up my 06 STi but then after a couple of weeks i was much happier than i was guilty. Every time i drive the car It makes me smile and happy.

That is exactly how I feel. Right now I think about it and the money I owe but when I get in the car, I am in my own little world smiling.

That smile will become even bigger once you pay it off. Trust me. Congrats and welcome. A friend of mine had an STi Limited as well. Great looking, way understated.

My favorite about the car has to to be the black brembos and the black leather interior. Absolutely hate the blue interior.
