Nice! That's exactly what I just bought. I went from an 02 PSM sedan to the 05 GCM wagon and am loving every minute of it! Great choice!

I have an 05 too but in WRB I must say, I am so happy I got an 05, the interior is hawt! plus the car is a blast to drive....sorry to hijack your thread, but VRWRX and eric, do you guys have a sticky reverse gear? as in it's sometimes tough to shift into reverse(it'll only go halfway into the gate)?

Nice buy! I almost bought that one but got silver instead because it's a little easier to keep clean.

I like the gray because it's the same color as most of the road dirt I get on it.

Just depress the clutch twice before you try to put it in gear (depress clutch, let out completely, depress again, select gear). When I'm having problems getting it into reverse it helps me to shift into third first and then go into reverse.

Nice shots. I love that color. My next Subaru will be an STI, Crystal Grey (if they still make that color in 07 or 08) with a trunk swap to be S T E A L T H. There is something about that color that makes police, ricers and testosterone-impaired Mustang drivers just overlook it -- until you show them your tail lights

I was just talking about that. Black Rota's.

I just need the 1200 bucks to spend on them. And Subydude has to get them for me without the polished lip.

That's a really really nice drop, closed up the gap beautifully without slamming it and looking silly. Dead sexy.

Very nice! How is the ride on the H-Techs? I want to lower mine but I'm worried about losing the stock ride quality. But that drop is just perfect, so I may have to suck it up and live with a stiffer ride if that's the case.
