WRX to STi

Hey guys!
I sold my 02 WRX today and picking an 04 White STi w/ gold BBS wheels this Saturday! I can't freakin wait! I talked down the price to $23,000(originally $25,000) from a private party so I think I'm getting a pretty good deal. The car is in near perfect condition(usual crap when buying a used car), new brakes, adult owned and has just a tad over 30k. What do you guys think? I also wanted to say I drove my buddy's 06 STI and I couldn't believe how different it was, power wise. My 02 which had comparable numbers to that of a stock STi(238 whp) and the STI felt so much faster and torqueier. Hard to explain but I was quite impressed. I'm so excited I don't think I'm going to sleep for the next 3 nights.

I promise I won't forget the pics. I was going to do the same thing but financially it didn't make sense so I figured I might as well get a good amount of money for my car while I can and get an STi.
