Congratulation dingo

nice choice! I'm sure you'll have much fun with this car
about the color, personally I'm not convinced of the red, but for sure it's rare.

My first car was a Subary Legacy Station wagon (also in red , maybe a little darker red), and I drove it till the car was 13 years old (had a small crash on a iced road in the city)... one of the best cars one can have in the mountains , with only 100hp I passed everybody on the mountain-pass road in winter, the car was very nice on snow...memories....
back to your new toy
the unique sound of the boxer-engine


in the above replies, they where talking about diesel , what's diesel

the only diesel I know are

I've still got it.....luckily we (my brother and I) have 3 car bays so he still has a spot. I haven't touched it since getting the Rex.

I will sell it privately soon, just too busy at the moment.

Congrats a lot, dude!!

I don't know why but I'm exited for you having a new car. Maybe cause I only just found out about it. It really looks good in red and it's damn rare in that colour. You sure will have a lot of fun with it!!

You really need the following mods :
  • complete open exhaust to experience the boxer sound will every nerve in your body
  • a decent BOV to propagate more back fires when lifting off (at leasts if your engine uses a MAF sensor)
  • STi rear spoiler, just for the looks


As for the night shots, they are great. But the last pic of the rev counter is just superb, definitely wallpaper stuff and worth photo of the month!

The mods will have to wait for awhile, for two reasons:

1. I want to enjoy the car as it is at the moment, the noise from inside is pretty nice once the turbo spools up .

2. $$$$$

But they will happen eventually.

Thanks for the compliments on the pics.

I had the windows tinted on Friday, just went out then and took some quick pics of the result.

It looks much more "sinister" like this, and with summer approaching it will definately help with keeping it cooler inside.
