jk!!!


hey guys long time lurker but new to the community..was very well into hondas before i finally picked up my 06 wrx. i always liked subarus and told myself i'm only going to buy a white hawkeye but this one was traded in at my job and i was kind of iffy but after checking it out and seeing what it had and the price(employee) made my final decision.

some of my hondas

first 99 ek hatch sold it for a gsr with jdm front but sold right under my feet.


second bought this one on impulse since i needed a car.parted it out.









lastly this was my daily and traded it in for the wrx.







wheels then went on my gf's coupe...but was sadly stolen =( effff thieves!

[RScoobyy]

At first I was like then I was like

[Snoopy408]

Clean ride dude.

what were all the bad stories everyone was telling you?

[slopoke27]

@RScoobyy-lol! thanks!

@Snoopy408-not too much just the 5speeds suck,oil consumption,and tuning for every almost every single mod. but i dont care i love this car!

i'm coming from hondas which are pretty reliable so i bought this car pretty open minded

[Shipman]

I really like it with the factory wheels better, but car looks great dude

[potownrob]

i love how clean the car is. the 04-05 tails look much better than the newer ones. i have to be honest that i like the rims it came with a lot more than the black ones.

[Speedster329]

congrats! Car looks great

[slopoke27]

Thanks guys! I can see what you guys mean by liking the oem wheels better...to each his own! I'm going for the aggressive look and with 5x100 I'm limited to wheel choices unless I wait months and months for custom wheels but I love how it came out =)

[Tsujen]

Looking very nice!! I remember your gold hatch from back n the day, I was actually thinking about buying it when you had it for sale lol.
