Haha I love how many people think it's a good idea to dump they're rally bred sedan to make it a piece of metal barely on wheels lol

Lol I know right it's crazy!? Throw away the fact that WRX's and sti's handle really well offload and on Tarmac but when you slam them there goes $10,000 you spent on all the performance that comes with the wrx packages. Thanks man!

Standard I know the models are fairly similar but I like the idea of subaru's as looking tidy but with a hint of rally driving about them and a stance of aggression. I do think slammed looks pretty sweet! But I couldn't live with it myself

But I agree with your general statement. To each their own. Do what matters/satisfies you. Unfortunarely, too many instead do it for the status and approval from others (otherwise noone would be pissing themselves over getting a "HellaFLush Approved" sticker).
at lease there are still some sensible people in this world..we have two different opinions but we respect and understand eachothers preferences.

Gladly. And where is "out here" ? I am currently based in CA and not many people get why I am lifting my Subaru and putting full skid plating on it
