    What's up everyone! Bought my car at the end of November and it's my first Subaru. I've owned a car from pretty much every other Japanese manufacturer and I've always wanted to get into a Subie. I really missed AWD Turbo haha. I'm looking forward to meeting some great people and seeing/hearing/feeling some mods in person! My daughter should be born any day now (Due date was the 4th) so I might be a little busy for the foreseeable future but I hope to hit some meets when I can.
    1. Where do you live? - Marietta (East Cobb)
    2. What do you preferred to be called (not your username)? - Joe
    3. What do you drive? - 2016 WRX Limited 6MT, WRB
    4. How modded is your ride? - Not very lol: Stage 1 Tune, Rally Armor Flaps, Tint, STi Short Shifter, STi exhaust (my buddy gave it to me for free), and a really douchy Vanity Plate lol
    5. Where do you usually buy parts? - I try to support local business so I bought the AP from TopSpeed. I got the mudflaps from SubiSpeed though.
    6. Do you visit any other local boards? - No, not aware of any. Just NASIOC
    7. Show, Go, or Stock and staying that way? - I'm going to stay Stage 1 until I get to at least 15k or so probably (currently at 8k). I usually do the Go then Show route on my cars but I haven't decided yet on this one.
    8. Do you wave to other wrx's when you see then coming towards you? - Yes!
    9. Where did you find out about WRXatlanta? - FaceBook

    Hello group!

    My name is Lee and I am new to Subaru! I am patiently awaiting my 2017 WRX Limited in Ice Silver. The order has been placed and I am so excited!

    I've been in the Mazda community for many years. My dd is an 04 Mazda 6s that I've owned since new. It currently has 174k miles and has been one of the best cars I've ever owned. I recently sold my 3rd Miata, an '06 Touring. Throughout the years, I've owned an NA, NB, and finally the NC. I bought it in '07 as a leftover on the lot. It didn't get driven much as it was basically my garage queen. Just as it crossed 30k miles about a month ago, I decided to sell it and move on to something else.

    I actually met my girlfriend on the local Miata forum and she also had a few different ones. The last one was an '01 SE (BRG and it was beautiful!), but we sold that about a year ago and she's now in a '15 Focus ST. The Mazda 6 will likely be sold, too. Frankly, I think I'll have a harder time parting with that car than I did with any of the Miatas. I love that Mazda 6.

    Anyway, on to the questions:
    • Where do you live? Dunwoody
    • What do you preferred to be called? Lee
    • What do you drive? 2004 Mazda 6s, but the 2017 WRX Limited is on the way!
    • How modded is your ride? Stock
    • Where do you usually buy parts? Dealership parts counter, as long as they're friendly and willing to reasonably deal
    • Do you visit any other local boards? MX5Atlanta
    • Show, Go, or Stock and staying that way? Stock, and will likely stay that way
    • Do you wave to other wrx's when you see then coming towards you? Once I have mine, I certainly will!
    • Where did you find out about WRXatlanta? Browsing FB and online
    Thanks for a great community! I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and contributing to the group!

    Well, when the order was entered and I was given my VON, the system said October. However, based on everything I've read and what my guy told me, it will hopefully be closer to 8 weeks/early September. Let's hope!!

    Hey everyone. Really liking and appreciating the info I'm reading here. The topics for new forum members are very helpful, well written and sensible. The few posts read so far seem to indicate a down-to-earth family-style atmosphere; it's refreshing.

    4. How modded is your ride? No mods yet with exception of a minor cosmetic touch (window tint)
    5. Where do you usually buy parts? Varies depending on what's being shopped. I will buy local if quality is right, otherwise online (I don't mean to sound conceited; I'm cursed with OCDs ;-) )
    6. Do you visit any other local boards? Nope, first one
    7. Show, Go, or Stock and staying that way? Stock at the moment as I research the 'Go' opportunities
    8. Do you wave to other wrx's when you see then coming towards you? Yep, wave and as the next line illustrates I try to pull off and chat when possible
    9. Where did you find out about WRXatlanta. Pulled off to compliment a fellow Subie owner on his ride. He mentioned the site and FB page suggesting I stop by to say hello......... So....Hello!

    Got my WRX a few years back. Allpro replaced my short block after i found out it had blown ring lands and headgaskets. Had an Invida TBE when i bought it and ive added a few thing since the new block. Stock TD04 took a dump on me and i decided to upgrade to a 16G. Stage 2 was fun but got boring. Im officaly addicted.
