    First things first a big hello to everyone on the site! I'm new to owning a Subaru and also new to the Suwanee area. I grew up in Cleveland GA and have always dreamed of owning an STI ever since i saw them. Well, i just got my first STI about two months ago. I'm completely in love with the car. It's an 05 WRB with gold bbs. I'll post up some pics of it as well.

    Just wanted to say hello to everyone and hopefully i'll get to meet up with some of you sometime and hang out. Would be very nice to get to know some of you other subie owners :)

    I'm not sure who owned the car before me but they took very good care of it. I bought it with 13k miles on it and it looks brand new. I took it to TopSpeed in Alpharetta(sp?) and they said it all looked very good. It already has a Borla exhaust on it and also an AEM CAI. Had that on it when i bought it. I'm thinking of saving up a little cash and going back to TopSpeed and getting a DP and a tune and an Accessport when i get the chance.

    Here are just a couple pics i took of the car at the mall of ga a week or so ago. Sorry for the size and quality. I took the pics with my phone and i just got my computer up and running again so don't have photoshop installed yet...

    Thanks everyone! yeah, i was pretty shocked to find it with only 13k on it and at a good price. I'm definitely gonna check out the g2g section. i've seen a few wrx's around the suwanee area driving by or parked at local shops and such.

    hopefully i'll get to attend some meets or do some mountain driving soon and get to know everyone a little better :)

    nice man, if you're driving the wrx in your sig i'm not sure if i've seen you yet or not. i am rather new to the area and i work in hamilton mill in dacula. i hang out sometimes at the starbucks on p'tree industrial and sketch and such. there is another blue sti that i see there but i have yet to meet the owner of it.

    maybe i'll see ya around sometime. i'll be sure to wave :) (still getting used to the subie wave hehe)

    haha, yeah man. it's kinda like the motorcycle thing. every time i see a subaru i try my best to wave. unless it's like some old couple who wouldn't know or wave back. so far i find that it's usually others in wrx's and such. i got a wave on the way to work from a blue wrx wagon on 85 the other day. always makes me feel good.

    and thanks everyone!

    hope to see some of you on sunday at the photo get together :)

    Welcome. I'm in that area too; best chance to see me is on PIB, my work and house are 1 turn off. You def. want an AccessPort; I love that thing.

    As far as the wave goes, i'l point at other subies, wave, give the 2finger nod, turn my lights on, roll down the window and holler, whatever, depends on where my free hand is.

    Great find on the car. I'd take that over any other STi (especially with such low miles). And welcome to the site!

    I took a few more shots of the car today. It's pretty dirty in the pictures though :( i went and spent a couple hours washing it afterward so now it's all shiny and the wheels are gold again hehe. It was a bit too sunny to be taking pictures but i had nothing else to do.

    Welcome to the site, the car looks very nice. Mileage too.

    Cant go wrong at TS that is for sure they have tuned more subies than most any shop probably on the east coast.
