Nice one, I love Subarus! I had an STI before (2004 model, so the generation before yours), sold it and regretted it ever since. Thinking of getting a scale model of one to fill that void. :cry:

That's an awesome STI...first year, too! We looked at the STI when we got the WRX (bought new in 2006), but it was just a touch outside what we were looking to spend...not to mention, a rather rough ride with 2 little ones in the back seat.

The rough ride of the STI was part of the reason I sold mine, but also it was loud and attracted attention (I bought it because I am a huge rally fan). I drove it to and from work for 2-3 years and getting stuck in traffic was painful to say the least. The WRX is a good alternative, though, yours looks real clean which is rare these days and a good color!

Great models, too! Both are AutoArts? Always wanted to pick those up, along with a 22B STI road car an S3 rally car.

yup...both models are by AA, bought when they were relatively cheap. I missed out on the 22B both times it was released. :wall: Definitely a cool looking model.

the WRX is actually my wife's, but I'm in charge of keeping it clean. She absolutely loves it as much as when she got it 16 years ago. Its her daily driver, but still under 90K miles.

The "16 years ago" part really got me, I still think of that generation as modern.

I missed out on the 22B as well. I don't know why I didn't pull the trigger when it was available for retail price...

yeah, I do too. I think that's a pretty good sign we're old :beer: . The original Bugeye is 20 years old this year :doh:
