My story.
My dream car has been an Sti for the past few years. My dad owns an auto body therefore I have been searching for a hit Sti for quite a while. I never found one world rally blue and that is that color I wanted. Than this 07 limited wrx showed up one day and i had to have it. It has 25, 850 miles on it. It is a little beat up but my dad can fix anything. So I didn't get an Sti just yet but this one will come out for about $ 10,000 for me which I can afford and insurance will be cheaper. So for now this is my new baby.

nice work saving that scoob. Have you considered upgrading the suspension at all? I would do some springs/struts or coils w/ larger sways before getting into any significant power mods, but that's just my 2 cents.

Looks good. Just wonder if the amount of work going into the build comes close to the cost of a used STI?
