Another WRX owner in Austin
No, it's not me. That happens later this summer.
I talked a co-worker into one. He was thinking about getting a Type-R or the new RS-X, but I set him down the right path. We went out to lunch a while back in my car, and went by the dealership. He hasn't driven a 5 speed in a while to I drive it. Lots of fun, fast etc. So about a month goes buy, and he's trying to decide which car has enough performace that he can put up with the looks (the new Acura aint too beautiful either IMO). So he went back to the dealership the other day and drove one for himself. Under the advice of the salesman with him in the car, he takes a turn at about 75 mph on the test drive. The car sticks like we all know Subies stick, and he no longer has any doubts. He made the deal yesterday and picks it up later this afternoon. Silver sedan, spoiler, rear diff protector, special rear view mirror. So in just a few more months there will be two silver WRX's at my work with his sedan and my wagon. He seems pretty open to the idea of autocrossing it too. WOO HOO! More competition. I should be a salesman.
