I recently purchased a new-to-me 2012 DGM WRX Hatch from Subaru of Kennesaw for a daily driver. It was a fantastic experience. I even met up with the PO.. I'm totally new to the Subaru seen and the guys in the shop were really informative and clearly passionate about these cars. I've had the car for about a month and absolutely love it. It's quick, responsive and quite practical. It's stock and will likely remain that way until the warranty is up. However I may change a few things like the swaybars, stereo and wheels later this year. I look forward to participating on this forum and meeting some of you in person at events and track days. Anyone going to the Mitty? I'll be up all weekend. Best, Matt (woods247 on the innernet)
Welcome! Glad your liking your car as much as I am! I sadly didn't make it even close to the end of my warranty before modding. lol
It's certainly not easy is it?! There's so much available for them and apparently it's simple to pull more power and improve handling. I took it to Little Tally the day after I bought it and was blown away at how well it performed. It's more capable than me. As I attend more track days I think I'll have a better idea of where I can make improvements but for now it has ample power and always puts a smile on my face. Thanks for the quick welcome!
Welcome to the site! Congrats on your Subaru, I promise you will have a great time with it. I have a 2011 STI hatch and a 2002 bug-eye. If you are looking to take it to the track and see what it can do there is a Talladega Gran Prix open track date on 24th May for $140 for about 2.5 hours of actual track time. Its my company so I will guarantee you a good time. We'll hook you up with an instructor if you have never been to the track before. Stay Frosty, Stetson
Stetson thank you for the invitation. I'll PM you regarding the track day. I've been to Talledega Grand Prix once and would love to go back. Best, Matt
Welcome! Pics of the ride? I guess it doesn't hurt to have another Matt on here. Lol. Look forward to seeing you around!
