I'd also be interested, I think the STi is a fantastic machine but the C2 has me ball and chained for now.

As long as you enjoy it though
That's great for you, but has nothing to do with congratulating the new owner. Congrats on the purchase and enjoy it in the best of health!

Con grats on full filling your dream. When I bought mine, it was not about pure performance or speed. The 911 is an icon vehicle. Subarus etc are not what people will consider an icon (unless you are 16). The 911 continues to evolve to higher levels of performance while retaining a design that embodies performance. If I want to scare myself, I'll ride my motorcycle.

I also just sold my 2002 WRX. The 996 is just so damn sexy.

LOL man the new Subaru reminds me of a Ford Focus ... saw a commercial for it ... my friend thought it was Hyundai or something ... *sigh* That's not a good sign.

Congratulations on your C2!

I too came into my C2 after a couple Imprezzas. '02 WRX & '05 STi the former was stolen and recovered stripped.



IMHO the '06 was the start of a huge mistake in the line of Imprezzas. Subaru you are truly dumb asses.
