Jay
the fool on the hill
So after 16 years of faithful Pontiac driving, mr. predictability Jayhawk decided to go off on a weird tangent and buy a 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX.

And I bought it at a stupidly good deal because I work for a Subaru dealership. I know the pictures are pretty bad, but like anyone who buys a new car, you want to show it off.
How do I like it? Love it! The interior is set up much like a GM product, so stuff like HVAC and wipers were easy to figure out. I havent yet flogged it, not until I have 1000 miles on it, but I can tell you it has sharp turn in and predictable, neutral handling. The turbo comes in pretty early, about 1800 rpms, and gives a nice smooth surge. It came from the factory with a short throw shifter, and the shifts are precise, and the clutch pedal has just beautiful actuation.
Sometime in the next week I will put on this thread more quality pictures for the subie lovers.
