NO SUBIE WAVE MAN WTF 08's
You see another subie owner give a wave or a nod or something. DOnt think you are better than us cuz you have a newer, yet uglier, subaru. I love all subies but i think the 06-07 are the best looking ones.

See my car @ www.cardomain.com/id/irish_car_b0mb

SO as of right now until they change thier attitude towards fellow subie owners, I think they are not one of us.
Lol sounds like you've had some ill experiences with new owners... but remember a few things. 08 STi's right now aren't selling to the guy with 30k looking to chase super cars through mtns. They're selling to richer guys who wanted a sporty car. So they might not be like most of us, only time will tell.

Your attitude makes you look butt hurt though.

I just checked my calender, it's still 2009 here. Is this supposed to be an 08 remix thread?

haha lol the 08 STi has ripped the 07 STi a new one a Tsukuba. The technology is getting better model by model. So tech wise, the 08>06-07>04-05>02-03. That's just natural progression.

You may not like how it looks, but it makes your bugeye seem like a "crap awd honda" in comparison with regards to tech and performance. Even 08 wrx vs 02 wrx in those same regards kills.

And if you are looking at an Audi, then you're not looking for the performance factor, you're looking for the bling factor. Therefore you're looking for an expensive awd "riced out" honda with your way of thinking. Leave the STi's for the boys that want to drive them buy the pretty car instead.
