Sighting: Brown WRX on 91E in Cerritos

Last Sat, Oct 18 @ apporx 9:20am I got off of the 605 & on to the 91 & I saw a brown WRX & I was wondering if the driver is an I-Club member.
You: 02 or 03 sedan with OE wheels & muffler (Stealthback maybe?), FMIC, & unpainted Morretts or Prodrive headlights.
Me: 02 PSM Sportwagon

He might be colorblind. Maybe he meant red.

LOL! I am NOT blind, though I do wear corrective lenses! It must have been custom painted - like a dark brown mixed with a medium grey color. If memory serves the windows were not tinted...

still...
BROWN
Why? of the all the freaking colors on the wheel, why brown?

I have a thing against brown. The first car I ever fixed up was an 80' Celica GT, back in 84'. I did all the right stuff, and it looked great, but everyone gave me a hard time because it was brown. I polished and waxed, and polished and waxed, to the point that at night it looked almost black at night, but still everyone made fun because it was brown. It was low, it had proper stance, it had 3 piece wheels from hayashi, but still people only commented on the fact that it was...BROWN. It had sidedraft carbs, TRD heads, a roll cage and brembo brakes....but still the only thing people asked about was that it was....BROWN. Damnit it came that way, and the paint was still good. why waste money on it being painted... I was using that money keeping it shod with Yokohama A008Rs..

[steps off box]

the only that looks good to me in brown is the UPS truck when it is bringing me new stuff.

I'm not particularly a big fan of brown.. but there's this metallic muddy brown colour that's absolutely amazing. I've only seen it on custom painted cars.. but it's really nice.

Aside from that, all stock browns are crap. No pun intended.
