MY04 Subaru WRX (Opinions needed....)
 

Well here is my "new" baby....a Red MY04 Subaru WRX. :D

It has only 16,000kms (10,000 miles) on the clock, so its basically brand new but with a lower price tag. :D

I bought it last week and picked it up this evening, so only some pics in the dark for now. I will do a proper shoot with the car at some stage.

I have covered 20km so far, and enjoyed every second of it! Once you get this thing above about 3000rpm it just takes off :shock: , obviously not as fast as some of the cars I've been in but for everyday use its enough for me.

Its been a few years since I drove a manual car, so need to get used to it all again - shouldn't take long though. :D

Start off with the custom shot:

Really nice looking scooby you got there Dingo. Looks fantastic in red, very unusual color on wrx:s over here. Congrats man!

Thanks for the comments.

I picked red for exactly the reason mentioned - its RARE! I would also have liked a black one, but they are really hard to find and then keep in good condition.

BTW, the wheels look gold in those pics - but they aren't. :wink:

Its going in for a window tint next week (part of the purchase), and then I will lower it at some stage.

Wheels and performance mods will have to wait a bit.....need more $$$.

Brillant color! And nice night shots! I am sure you will have plenty of fun with it!

Nice ride Dingo, Glad to see its what you expected. As long as it puts a smile on your face everytime you hit that right foot. 8)


Also, if your after wheels/suspension, give us a buzz on MSN, ive been doing heaps of research for my baby, we share the same PCD, but different offset, but found heaps of quality stuff at very cheap prices. :mrgreen: :wink:

Contrats dingo. 8) Love the colour too.


By the way, what happened to the Elise? Or what didn't happen, in this case. :P

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. :D

Too expensive and impractical for what I need. :wink:

shame u didnt choose an elise :P but as wrx's come and go, this is a nice1...very good pics also :D

nice car Dingo, as all guys said before; nice colour!!

and only 16.000 km :shock: the former owner must be old or stupid :wink:

Oh, I see... :)

Congratulations Dingo, hope you are enjoying your new car! 8)

OMMFG!!! :P Congrats Dingo!!! You dont see many of them in red, looks cool :P

Bwt, manual gearshift rulez :mrgreen: :wink:

Congratulation, You will have lots of fun with this one. The color is great too. Enjoy it :D

Nice car.... i love the colour.

Not too fast, but i suppose tha there is massive potential for upgrades on brakes, suspension etc... when you are ready for them :D

Can you get the PPP - Prodrive performance pack - down under? That might be a possible upgrade 8)

Seems this model - the "old" WRX is going cheap over here. Searching our car supermarkets, you can get one brand new, del. miles for £5k off list price so it works out ~ £16k

Have fun, and i look forward to more pics

:D congrats man!! is an STI ver?
hehehe anyway.. i'm sure you'll have tons of fun with it ;)
