Are/were you a WRX owner? I still have my WRX but it's down while I do some work on the engine. I'm actually very pleasantly surprised.

Mine's an '01 RS sedan. It may not be on the top of any enthusiast's list of all around great handling, very powerful cars, but damn it's fun.

I never got the chance to play around on snow and ice with my WRX, being that I bought it and put 98% of it's miles on it while I was in Hawaii. The RS has some nice torque, especially with the 4.11.

Yeah, it takes a while to get used to cruising at 2000 RPM and not having to use 1st gear from a roll doesn't it?

No wrx here just a obs, so this is a big step up.
I'm going to keep it na for now because i'm poor, but i do have forced plans.
but first a little clean up,take off stupid crap like monster tach,blinkin washer nozzels,and
fart can muffler.(sounds really good,butt looks like azz)
need to powder coat wheels back to stock color.I can see 3 differant colors gold, silver,and white.
It does have a borla header,stock cats,and a custom 2 1/2" exaust.
ohh, the rear struts are pink.it has a real stiff ride,i can feel all of the frost heaves.
