Update from Moscow
Although my WRX is currently sitting in Utah, I do get to see a nice 2002 STi in our hotel parking lot every day. I've seen several 2004+ STi's including a Tommi Kaira around Moscow and an Evo IV or V (hard to tell because the front airdam is aftermarket and the badges are all gone).
My next trip to the states is gonna be in March, when our first child is supposed to be born. Unfortunately, I'll be in Utah, not in Texas, so I won't get to see anyone, but I wish I could be back. Due to various beaurocratic things, I am not permitted to bring my WRX over, but I can buy a car from anyone who currently has one at the US embassy (where I work). So I think we may buy some kind of car after my wife gets back with Bolster v2.0 (the baby). Regards to all.

Hey I'll be going to Moscow and then to the Ukraine in late December, early January. How is local transportation and more importantly, how are the babes up there, haha?

My wife was in Moscow last October on a mission trip to one of the area orphanages. I remember that we watched a TV program the night before she left of a Paul McCartney concert which was filmed in Moscow. She brought back plenty of memories and pictures. It appears to be quite an interesting place.
Be safe and enjoy your experience! Ken |

Salaki- I'll have to check and see prices on a Ver 8. I haven't run across a Subaru dealer yet. Stilover- You can own a nice car here, but it looks like it does cost a bit more here than in the States for just about any car. |

For those of you in different circumstances, there are a lot of girls who would love to marry you for your passport and then divorce you after living in the states for 2 years and obtaining permanent resident status (and robbing you blind). If you like night life, Moscow has plenty of stuff going on ranging from nice to just plain evil to truly bizarre . You can ride the metro to just about anywhere and it's pretty fast. It stops running after 1:00 am, so you gotta plan for that. Taxis are expensive due to how lopsidedly rich people tend to be in Moscow. Salaki- FYI, Subaru.ru lists two versions of the STi v.8 for, gulp, $46,060 and $49,240- and NO, that is not in Rubles! That's USD! |

Guru- just let me know when you're gonna be here and I'll see if I can get free to hang out. As for the party scene, Stilover's friend can probably hook you up, or I do know some people that can are into the night life here.
