    It's so hard to find the parts youre looking for in your body color. Something about paying to have things painted just feels dirty.

      The only reason I pulled the trigger on this combo was the fact that its about $200 cheaper than anywhere else, and the seller actually responds to texts/emails!!!!!!!!!!! That alone was the main selling point lol

      Plus, my uncle does supreme body work for a living, so painting it should be no problem whatsoever. Not to mention, I'm tossing around the idea of repainting my entire car this spring; OEM subaru paint is a joke, and I'm seeing some minor surface rust popping up in some places that I do not appreciate.

          No idea, he doesn't like side projects (he has an old corvair he's restoring, and an old Willys jeep) keeping him busy right now. I'm gonna sand my car down, remove all trim/etc, then have him come over and lay down some paint for me :)

          Probably gonna go with white for the whole car :)

            I like white subarus!

            White and black are the best, IMO. Seems like every STi I see is silver or blue.

              My thoughts exactly.. I also like the dark grey STIs like my trunk.

                Paint it to match the trunk, I've never seen an earlier wrx in that color. I think it'd look pretty good.

                    I'm tempted to go with a dark grey.. But seeing as how I may end up painting it myself, I might go with whatever color is easiest to hide mistakes on :D

                                Alex, a stage 2 STI... 6 speed, boxer rumble, roughly 300whp, reliable, perfect for year round driving, 4 doors for the familia.. Plus you could have an economy map for trips and still get about 25mpg..

                                    That light ass e30 would be fun, but he's gotta be able to drive it year round and haul the baby around too.. Sti ftmfw :D

                                      Let's just say, I'm not factoring in a baby seat in this next car....

                                      It's pretty unlikely that I'll be buying anything with more than 2 doors.

                                      Im tossing around a few options but most of them are DD/track car all in one. I don't want to start talking about it because the M3 is still in my garage and I change ideas more thank I change my daughters diapers....

                                        Ok, so remove rear seats + roll cage = non-family friendly car that would still be crazy fun :)

                                          4 doors with rollcages are stupid. I suppose if you have a WRX and there is no coupes...

                                          I will stay in a BMW, and I'd be surprised if I went with something other than a E30 or E36.

                                          Lots of ideas. But I also plan on doing autox this year so I'm looking at classes for BMWCCA and SCCA stuff. Don't want to put myself in a higher class where I'll be shafted by new M3's and what not.
