WRX and R32

We recently had a family reunion near Duluth, MN (Two Harbors, actually). I drove my rex from Colorado, and my brother drove his brand new R32 from Florida. We had to get some pix while we were together. That's Lake Superior in the background.

love those r32's...I was on the list before I bought my wagon.

must suck to be so far from your brother. I have had some job opportunities and what not to move further away and I just don't want to be that far from my brothers...hard enough that my youngest bro has been up like 8 hours away all summer. bah...i'd be bummed if I was across the country from one of them.

It is tough being so far away from my brother, but that just makes it that much better when we do get to see eachother.

When I bought my WRX he was a little bitter that his younger brother had a faster ride than him. He had a swapped Civic and even though we never raced, he knew it couldn't hang. I guess now he has redemption. It's pretty much a coin flip now (I just have a cat-back), and I'll wait a bit to put on my up/down pipes so he can revel in that for a while. I don't want to steal his thunder too quickly.

But I'll tell you what. As much as I LOVE the way my WRX looks, nothing turns heads like his R32. Especially that color. My camera doesn't do any justice to that color.

it's a nice car but not worth it imo.

there are SO many other cars i'd consider in that price range BEFORE the R32.
350z, G35, RX-8, EVO, etc etc

oh, and i'm not "hating"... just my OPINION

I was expecting a different (and superior) kind of R32, but those are two extremely hot cars just the same.

My personal choice woudl be a R32 over an STi I just like the vdub more, but thats me, even though I'm a subaru fanatic. Pshh, I don't even own one yet, which blows.
