Haha, it's not my house. My friend lives by the mission hills in fremont, so we just went around the neighborhood and found a couple of nice houses to shoot at. We just knocked on the door and asked the owners.

Heck, even if that was our house, my parents would never allow me to get a wrx. They blow their tops if I asked for a 20k car

nah, it was a private seller off of craigslist. The guy had it for 8 years, and was the second owner. Everything is stock, and it was kept in relatively good condition. Yes, the clearcoat on the roof is showing some wear, there's a bit of rust on the hatch, and the passenger side fender has a dent from a parking lot incident. However, the car is in pretty good condition considering it's an 89.

pretty car! taking care of the engine is going to be a task, but it should be a lot of fun. I almost bought a 91 before I bought my 05RS but decided i wasn't ready to take on the rotary. Good luck, looks good.

Wow thats crazy that you were able to find that. My friend has an FC that looks just like yours, but no turbo. He recently purchased a Racing Beat exhaust.
