Exclamation I've betrayed the Rx8club!

What's up guys, just giving a heads up on the news. My 8 a will be traded in on Friday for a Black '06 WRX. The reason I'm trading her in is because the 8 payments were killing me and I'm getting a new apartment. I've made alot of friends here. Thanks for the used parts, awesome deals, and laughs.

Rob "TxRx8"

P.S. Can I have a name change?

Damn sorry XDEED, those HID's are going in my WRX! And Excelon, sorry but I'm trading her in with the wheels. The HP's aren't expensive, at all just check out ebay for HP Evo's.
I'm getting the car for $24,319. No down and a the trade of course.

Good timing at least, they just increased the WRX to the 2.5 lieter engine.

Enjoy.

Thanks dude, nah, refinancing wasn't on my mind. I wanted a wrx before I had the 8. So, I went with it this time. I know the WRX isn't as beautiful as the 8, but hell looks aren't everything. **** ask my girlfriend why she chose me! I dont want to turn this into one of those Rx8 vs Imprezza threads, so let's keep it clean guys.

Get yourself some new tires while you're at it, the stock ones almost ruin the car and you'll be shocked at how much better the car handles with proper rubber. Seriously consider a Cobb Accessport as well, they make the car drive better, get better gas mileage, and you get another 25-30whp Oh, and it just plugs into your eprom so the dealer will never know you have the ECU modded. So a little over 1k invested and you're looking at around 240whp with just exhaust and tune.

Good choice on the '06, they addressed just about every gripe I had with the '02-'05.

Dude, I was waiting to hear from you on this subject. This is my first Subby, but I have friends in Austin with a couple of 'em. I'm really diggin' your input up there, so if I have any questions I know who to ask. BTW I just have this thing for dark wheels on a black car, so gold is out of there! Just my preference. Love that Evo man, keep it clean!
