Yeah, stock. I saw your original post about STi stuff- I believe the 04's started with the bigger scoop and the STi is even taller!!!
I edited my post after looking at some STi pictures...the newer WRX scoop is bigger than before, but the STi scoop is just a monster wave. :eek:

I like those wheels. Probablyout of my price range though lol.. As for the lights- that is nice looking, I just don't want to deal with the way they look in a couple years after getting road chips and such :).

The wheels are about $450 each, so you're probably right. I love the bronze ones on the black STi, but they are only sold in Japan & I don't even want to try calculating what it would cost to get them here.

As for the fogs...you could get them & then ask Blue Batmobile to make some clear vinyl fog covers for you (or smoked/colored if you prefer) so that they would never get damaged.
 
yeah, the sti scoop is huge!!! The wheels aren't "that" bad, but more than I want to spend and probably about $449 each MORE than the old lady will let me spend on wheels for the NEW car lol- she is the "I don't see the point, the ones on it work just fine" type... Actually, she can be cool about stuff most of the time, but $$$ is tight this time of year, so she gets b****y about spending it lol..

note- the steering wheel and center console/radio/climate control area are all new for 05- that's why I tried to get them for those who knew what the older ones looked like.
I am very familiar with the WRX interior because so many of my friends own WRXs...your interior is MUCH MUCH better.

last year.. Traded it in towards this one. I will NEVER buy a ford again- especially a new ford..

So glad I did not buy the black -n- blue Mach1. They were desperate to move them huge rebates etc.
All in all I am happy with my MSP and my Little Joey P MBC :)
But that new turbo MazdaSpeed AWD 6 is looking good except the FUGLY 18'' wheels.
Nice WRX Ho...

Nice car, joe. I'm glad that even after carhopping you're still sticking around to let us know what you're up to. Keep stayin' in touch.

Yeah, if you buy one- plan on keeping it. The Mach may hold it's value better, but I dunno. Any time a manufacturer ****** cars out with rebates and s*** and sell a million of them, they are worthless :(. I miss the stang, it was a sharp looking car that ran "ok" and sounded sweet. Just a worthless ford product in the big picture though..

I thought that Subie products held there value over a Ford product anytime? Welllllllllll maybe not the GT40.

Yeah, I lurk often, just don't say much because of the issues with a few people here, I let them know it all and keep quiet to myself.. I'll keep you guys updated on the WRX. I really wanted to TT the stang, which would be far more powerful than any WRX, but it just wasn't practical- a 12 second WRX is a perfect street car for me- at least until I get owned by an 11 second evo with half the work I have- then it's on!!!

Yes, it is the ford I was talking about. That is why I traded it in towards the subie- more practical, I can still "tinker" :) and since I was still a bit upside down in the trade in, it will not be as bad as being upside down in the ford since it will hold value better.

heh- sorry, been spending too much time over at nasioc :).
Joe
ps- there are actually *some* pretty cool guys over there- just thought I'd throw that in lol..
 
w3rd, I spent about 6 months over on NASIOC when i was planning on buying a subie, b4 I got my P5 and came here :D
