Some of you may know i have been looking for a new Daily. I have been looking around at a handful of Lexus's, Acura's, Honda CR-V's, Mazda RX-8, etc. I finally found what the right car.

Its a 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX Sport Wagon. Its Factory Turbo Charged 2.0liter engine with the e4at Automatic Transmission(the 5speeds blow). I picked it up for a pretty good deal. Its got alot of miles 186k. However the engine was recently rebuilt 13k ago(have a stack of receipts) and a new low mile turbo was put in. Brakes redone, new gaskets, tranny flush, everything.

It was a one owner car, The previous owner was a 55 Year old lady. The Dealers wife drove it for the next 10 months and then wanted another car from the lot so it went up for sale and I bought it.

Over all I love it. Its quick, very comfortable, stops quickly, handles amazingly, all while being pretty quite, which is impressive. Its Just an all around awesome little car. Despite its miles, in amazing shape.

These are the few camera phone pics I snapped in front of mc donalds in Hillsboro oregon to send to my buddys before making the 2 and half hour trip back home. The pictures dont show much howevers its all 100% Bone stock down to stock rims and radio. I will have more pics soon.

I So Love this car. From Factory its awesome. I love it. I will look into STi Sway Bars.

I was at my uncles over the weekend and figured I would snap a few pics, Sorry about the bad quality, I didn't have a nice camera with me.

It has a Momo Stearing wheel and 2004+ WRX's get the same interiors as STi's therefore super comphy Race inspired seats. They remind me alot of EP3 Seats

Turbo :thumb:

All the Engine goodies are stock for now, Over time that will change though.

I still have both of my Civics. I will be parting out my EG Sedan and selling it stock. The WRX Will be replacing it as my Daily Driver. The Delsol I will be keeping. I am toying of the idea of making the Delsol AWD with a CRV Tranny, Wagovan rear diff and drive shaft and JDM Ferio RTSI awd rear hubs. The WRX Is faster then my Delsol, I need to fix that. :lol:

Thanks, That's what I thought as well. There are a few minor dings but nothing bad. The Interior is next to spotless and the seats despite having big bolsters in them to hold you are in perfect shape. I was really surprised at how good of shape it was in when I found it.

I Assume the first pics of when I got it. haha. Nice. I got the Subaru from Acalade Auto which was probally 2-3mins from that McDonalds I took the pictures at.

It was quite a drive back upto my house in Washington but worth it. I LOVE my WRX.

Do it. I would highly recommend any Automatic Subaru. They have one of the best AWD systems out there. Its a detuned version of the Subaru Rally AWD System. its crazy how much grip you get.

Honda's Super Handling AWD is cool, however the only cars that have it are way to expensive.

I Do not regret getting my WRX. Its so much fun to drive. Especally on the Gravel.
