You Know You're A Wrx Owner When...

YOU KNOW YOU'RE A WRX OWNER WHEN...

You look forward to bad weather.

You want to race anything and everything...off the line.

You think you can out-launch a Navy fighter off a carrier deck

You have a poster of Peter Solberg hanging in your room

You know the difference between "boxster" and "boxer"

You have done the 'upgrade to STi' financial calculation a million times

You're disgusted at every other car manufacturer that adds non-functional scoops to their cars.

Every person you meet that doesn't own a wrx, asks if you have an STi when you tell them you have a wrx.

You stare down your shifter for a good 30 seconds before attempting to go into reverse...and end up grinding anyway.

You drive a wagon, and your friends actually think its cool.

You go to sleep thinking about your next mod.

You will never buy another car without a turbo or AWD again.

You can spot a hoodscoop 500 feet away.

You drive thru your friends' front lawns before driving up their rock covered driveways

You hate to turn on the a/c and defroster.

You've spanked numerous ricers with a couch hanging out of the back of your "4 door hatchback"

You have a local car meet everytime it snows

You have a favorite on-ramp

You think of silly things to put in the forums whilst you drive.

You dont dread going to work cause you get to drive your rex there.

When you buy a wrx instead of an STi to save money and then spend 5 grand on parts.

When you think there's something wrong with your car, you refer to web forums before taking it to the mechanic/dealer.

You drive around with no music just so you can hear the turbo.

You get all googily eyed when you see another rex, even though you have your own.

When you eat at a fast food restaurant you sit by a window so you can see your car.

...You've wondered how you survived without one.

 

Haha they're so freakin true . Except i'm except from a couple since i do own an STi . I totally feel the bad weahter thing haha. And the no music.

Me - "Turn the music down, I can't hear my engine"
^ - isn't really a problem any more since my new exhaust and DP is loud as HELL

 

omg so true. every time i tell someone i drive a wrx they're like, " IS IT AN STI?" NO I WOULDVE SAID I DRIVE AN STI IF I DID!

 

rofl Wrx ownz..

 

So many of these were oh so very true, but this one has to take the cake. :naughty:

 

Those are great. I've gotta agree with all of the wagon specific ones, its very true.

You forgot:

Your friends start telling you about every WRX they see on the road, down to the visible mods.

 

Funny stuff... I spent $6000 "saving money buying a wrx instead of an STi", I always sit next to a window in restaurants to look at my car(I also park as far away as possible at malls/grocery stores to park by myself), and I can definetely spot another wrx'er from huge distances and allways oogle them even though I have most of the same mods....

 

Thats pretty good! Most of it goes for STI owners as we'll! After all Subaru's in general!

 

yeah, i get the "do you know them?" all the time.

 

So true! I always shake my head at purely asthetic hood scoops. TMIC ftw :naughty:

 

nice

 

yeah, i get the "do you know them?" all the time.

You Know You Own A Wrx When You Make The Bov Go Off Everytime You Pass A Car With The Windows Down...psshhhhhh

yeah I defintely used to do that when I was 100% atmos....the reactions were priceless....

 

It Scares The Old Folks Haha..the Girls Love It

 

I passed some girl from my high school like that on the way to some banquet.

She comes out screaming "You drive like a maniac!!! Was that noise NOS?!?!?!"

:rofl: :squint:

I Had That Happen This Dude Rolls Up And Is Like Hey I Heard That... U Got Nos Don't You...ya Listen To That Nos U Hear That Buddy...i Bout Shot Him..that Dumbass Gahh Lol

 

wtf? i tried submitting the first time, but it just hung, so i went back later and tried. wierd.

 

...."Your car sounds like a helicopter".

 

Haha, I've heard a few similar stories from people. I'm not trying to mess with you or anything, just sincerely wondering, isn't it a pain in the ass to capitolize the first letter in every word?

 

i had it on caps lock and for some reason this thing capped only the first letters of all the words haha

 

hahaha....so true, and I thought I was alone in some of those. The one about sitting by the window so I can see my rex holds very true!

 

Very true JT, very true......LOL.....




Mark

 

I do the Window thing, and I park as close to the Smoking area at work so when I go out on my 15 minute smoke breaks, I can gawk at my car.

 

Mark always says mine sounds like a motorcycle?.....

 

ive heard mine sounds like a boat before :dunno

 

subys do have that vtwin sound. kinda:hs:

 

i was about to park my car at a restaurant and drove by four 20 somethin year olds... one of them shouted out 'ur car sounds like a truck'... i wasnt sure if it was a compliment or an insult... so i held my middle finger outa the window... felt like a bad ass when i did that... then i realized that i gotta leave my car in the lot and go inside the restaurant... luckily nothing happened but it was a bad move in hindsight

 

why dont you stick to picking on senior citizens :keke:

 

ur senior enough

 

I can relate to the "looks forward to rainy days" comment.

My first test drive of a WRX was when it was raining, and it was a pure blast to drive.

"You stare down your shifter for a good 30 seconds before attempting to go into reverse...and end up grinding anyway"

So true I'm better at it now though, Saturday night was the worst I've driven in the rain in the wrx I went through hella puddles of water and the car held like a rock and yes I'm looking foward to rain now.:bigthumb:

Craig

 

Here's me trying to get into reverse. Click, click, "Damn it", click, click, "bastid", click, goes in gear....

 

Do you ever sit there and ask your work associates who drives that subaru LOL..

 

Thats when you wish you could shoot a few lil flames out the exhaust LOL..

 

Fixed. And he should be able to....it is an STi. Mine will pop and a colorless blue spurt will come out but my buddy Zach with the STi will literally throw a 3 ft flame out.

 

Wow. I always thought it was just me...

Love the bolded one though. I've gotton the "is it an STi?" question like 10 times.

 

Ditto. The look of dissapointment is always kind of sad.

 

i cry afterthey ask me
