Talking New Guy From Reno

Hello everyone! My names Ryan, 19,i am from Reno (i live on Ashbury just south of McQueen for locals) and just got my '06 Black STI yesterday. I traded in my 2001 Mustang SVT Cobra, main things were i couldnt fit to well anymore, i grew a few inches. I also am working on a photo/video business and as you will see, i go off road alot.

I am loving my decison. I test drove it 2 weeks ago and was hooked. The power/handling/braking is amazing, it probably would beat my old car. I love the interior much more also.

Im also really into detailng so the car will be polished this weekend, i just had to get some pics to post even tho its dirty.

So heres some pics: (Full Gallery Here)

Welcome to the club!

Just a heads-up, you might want to think about some all-season/snow tires for the winter, especially if you're going to be heading over the pass Enjoy your new toy!

Edit: I noticed that you're already on SECCS

I got the wintersport m3's on my STi. Had them during the big snow storms in Reno last year. They are awesome and when I got mine not too pricey either. Rota wheels, makes some inexpensive wheels to keep your snows on so you have a seperate set, see subydude here on the vendor forums. If your looking for some one to purchase your 070's let me know. (I would put them to good use.)

(I said hello on SECCS too.)
