If I bend my wheels, I'm gonna be pissed...

Hopefully I can go a winter without breaking something while being a hooligan and learning how to AWD!
Because I sure as shît can't afford it.

Found out something interesting. My Impreza is indeed Midnight Black Pearl, or at least according to the paint code it is. Since everyone who saw it and noticed the color seemed somewhat confused. I'm slightly more confused now too.

08V = Midnight Black Pearl

Wait, where the flip is your VIN? BECAUSE RACECAR?

And apparently, my Impreza doesn't have the weird metallic blue/black that's "Midnight Black Pearl", which is kinda weird, because that's what the VIN plate says. Perhaps the car was repainted for some reason?

Tim, now I am really confused!

I doubt your whole car was repainted, but its definitely possible, especially considering how good of shape its in.

That's the colors offered that year for the 2.5TS:

I could probably sneak out Saturday or Sunday. I'm not opposed to this weekend at all - it's pretty warm out

I'll be at Panera on West Main tomorrow for a while doing some studying, wouldn't be opposed to taking a bit of a break to talk Subarus.

I'll be back in the Detroit area for the rest of the month though.

Rae, when are you officially moving out here?

I could totally show up. I'll be careful not to mock you, seeing as how I managed to get not a single proper final this semester.

We could always meet up at Fourth Coast some time tomorrow. See if we can get some group shots in the snow that's forecasted for tomorrow? Kind of an ersatz cars & coffee/photoshoot/goofing around. Dunno - could be fun. I'd be down.

Hey guys haven't been on this site in a while since I stepped up to my new toys(diesel) but since I have owned 4 subbies ranging from stockish bugeye to rotated 30r sti swap in my 99rs I can't help notice them on the streets (around wmu) I was seeing what some of you guys around westerns campus got done to your subbies! My brother has a 04 with hundreds of mods and comes up from time to time.

Post up name, location, mods, pics.... Just like to check out some of your rides and see which of u I can pick on with my 8000lb truck! Haha

I don't think I'm going to be able to make the proposed fourth coast meet today. Some family stuff came up, and I can't really sneak out of the house. Sorry.
