Finaly After lots of waitting and i-clubing Im getting a 2002 aspen white RS. Orderd today and should take about 6-8weeks to arive.

Extras,

Black leather
Short shifter
Diff Protector
Fog lights
Spoiler
WRX Hood (2002 RS hood for sale)
Aero Body kit
upgraded sound and security system

Cant wait

I highly recomend Gary DeSanzo from Souther States Imports, paying about 200 over invoice for the car not including extras.

Thanks to everyone who helped

How much does one of those WRX hoods go for? You can get an aero package too?

b_tapper: WRX hood painted and installed $800

Since the Aero package is from subaru he said he can get it, ask your dealer.
Gary does not have much info on the price of the Package yet but is going to sell as bot, so can't be over 950, Plus installation. Ill get back as soon as I find out.

I Omost got black.

One problem I have noticed with the MY02 RS is that there is too much traffic on the road for me to drive it to it's capabilities.

Ok I know what aero package that is. The only other '02 I have ever seen already has It. Must not copy Dave's car....

Oh yeah that black is just so fun to keep clean

One question is the Breakin piriod the same as the WRX, keep it under 4,000 for a 1,000,

b_tapper · 06-14-2001, 11:45 AM

Yep under 4k for 1k

It took me a whole 2 weeks to break that rs in

Windshield cracks and paint chips (speaking for my cousin)

Nothing unusual yet, and hes running the K+N without the crap stock Intake tubing (sounds sweet when you acel hard!

)

I've had 1 problem. Young punks in their hopped up small cars with mismatched body kits keep tailgating me while trying to read the trunk lid. I assume they think it's a WRX.

I love the WRX and everything, but I couldn't afford one. It's not so much the purchase price (I probably could've managed that) as the fact that it takes 92 octane gas and my commute is 80+ miles a day
