    Howdy folks. Picked up an 05 wagon last Saturday from Troncalli. I bought it as an all weather daily with some get up. I also own an S2000 which is my sunny day/track day ride. After buyin the S, I couldn't stand driving my SUV so I sold it for the WRX. The WRX is a fun car with totally different characteristics than the Honda. What a blast going heavy throttle out of a wet corner and not losing traction.

    See ya around.
    Matt

    Hello all in WRXatlanta land

    My name on here is swede978 and I am part of RS25, NASIOC and legacygt. I live in western NC about two hours away from ATL. I have a 99RS in Aspen White and is somewhat modded. My other is a 01 Legacy wagon in Timberline Green and is somewhat modded. I am into Go and Show. My next project is to insert a 06 STI drivetrain into the RS and repaint the Aspen with a blue pearl coat. I buy my parts from whoever is cheap!

    Thanks for having me

    Erik

    Hey all. Just bought my WRX a couple of weeks ago, and figured I'd go ahead and introduce myself. My previous car was a 1997 Mazda Miata, which was my pride and joy, until I got rear-ended and the car was totalled by insurance. I narrowed down my new-car list to a 2006 Miata, a 2006/7 WRX, and a 2004 Honda S2000. The fixed-top won out, strangely enough..

    Maybe working for the owner of SOG (at another of his dealerships) had something to do with it. :) Ended up getting a great deal on the car. Anyway.. on to the questions!

    Where do you live?
    Atlanta. Buckhead, more precisely.

    What do you drive?
    A 2006 Obsidian Black Pearl WRX-TR.

    How modded is your ride?
    I just bought it, so not much yet. I've got the SPT intake on it so far. Next comes a Cobb Catback exhaust. Then maybe some wheels.

    Where do you usually buy parts?
    Haven't bought anything other than the intake, which I picked up at SOG.

    Do you visit any other local boards?
    Just NASIOC, I guess. And a private board for my track driving club.

    Show, Go, or Stock and staying that way?
    Go, go, go. At least in the future. I'm not really into the showoff/ricer scene. Besides, that stuff attracts too much attention from LEOs. :sx:

    Do you wave to other WRXs when you see then coming towards you?
    I don't see many of them around, surprisingly.

    Where did you find out about WRXatlanta?
    The guys at SOG told me about it, but I stumbled on it while surfing the web.

    Neewbie Intro

    Hello Folks,

    I am John Evans aka Laze1. Live in Fayetteville, GA and drive a Honda S2000 today. I am a active member of the S2kAtlanta club. I track the car and do some Auto-x. I am a Manager with Verizon Wireless in Alpharetta (commute 120 miles a day in the S2000 now)

    I'm looking to buy a 2005 or newer STI in the near future. I want to learn all the good and bad things about the STI PRIORE to purchasing one. The reason I am selling the S2000 is that I am 6' 1" and my head sticks WAY over the roll bars even without a helment. I want to purchase a great street/track car that I can bolt in a cage with full racing seat and belts. The last couple of times on the track with the S2k, other folks have gone off big time and a couple rolled over....I went off but keep all 4 wheels pointed down :) So I am considering a STI or older M3, and other cars for track/daily drive duty maybe.

    I have seen BrianGT and Mere run that STI w/the S2kAtlanta club track events and I was very impressed (with the STI and Mere).

    Happy Turkey Day!

    Laze1
