STI, Bro

Rather on a whim, I’ve picked up a new toy: n
n n<p> nIn a serendipitous procession of events, the TooheyMobile is no longer in the stable, as it had to be surrendered to make room for the new toy above.</p> nNothing was inherently wrong with the Subaru Legacy - in fact I parted with it rather regrettably, but I just couldn’t turn down the deal on the STI. I happened to run a search on AutoTrader one Friday for “wanted cars” (as I’m apt to do), when a new listing popped up from the same dealer from which I purchased Zed. Having no photos and a limited description, the ad was austere, but two very important data points were present; mileage and price. Recognizing the potential deal, we hopped in the Legacy and headed over to the dealership to scope out the car in person (mostly just to confirm that the listing was in fact not a mistake). Before I knew it, I was signing paperwork and organizing finances, all before actually having the opportunity to actually sit in the vehicle, let alone test drive it. So for all of those curious, here are the stats (and essentially why I took the plunge): n<ul> n<li>2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI</li> n<li>36,000 miles</li> n<li>One owner</li> n<li>Relatively unmolested</li> n<li>20% below KBB value</li> n</ul> nDid I need an STI? No. Did I spend too much money? Probably. Am I glad I got this one? Absolutely. Check out more details on the 5Drive page
