Well, as mentioned before my focus is gone.
But to the plus side.. time for the new B)
I present to you.. my dirty new car

![[Image: rear.jpg]](http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a307/The-Phantom/rear.jpg)
and just for fun...(night+some creativity)
![[Image: gaugesweep.jpg]](http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a307/The-Phantom/gaugesweep.jpg)
Had 5kms on it when I picked it up, brand new from the dealership who ordered it in for me. Got the windows tinted today 5%, which is why I've only posted pics now.
Soon to come Rally armor mud flaps, new stereo etc..
I'm really going to miss the focus, but this car is a hell of a lot of fun to drive.

GORGEOUS car. The hatchback impreza wrx sti are pure sex.
Congrats on the whip, it's exactly what I want and I had to stop for a few minutes to look at the pictures in envy.
How much was it? I've been drooling over the subbies for a while now and planned on getting one in a few years.

The total price of the car came out to 44k, including my fog lights, all weather floor mats, taxes, freight etc etc.
I put down 12k, So I'm only financing about 32

i am not at all going to have any thing negative to say about subaru, I think its a damn nice car. But 44K for a hatch back is a little too steep imho. I know people should buy what theyre hearts content as long as they work hard, and its a damn nice car, but for me, cars depreciate the minute you drive them off the lot, and 32k is a lot to finance for a young guy.
just saying not everyone would pony up the $$ for a car like that, but maybe thts different in your part of canada. but good for u bro.

It is alot of money , but if you want it AND you can afford it , why not ? At the beginning of 2008 in was shopping for a new car for my wife and looked at Subaru also , there was an STI on the lot with the displayed price of "only "44900$ . This year , at the Autoshow , the STI on display had ths sticker price of about 33000$ . My point is that it seems that Subaru has lowered the price which is a good thing .

Buying a car brand new is the surest way to take a kick to the face financially speaking sure (Fusion cost me $37K out the door in April '08)
But at least I know that the car is mine from the get go and anything that goes wrong is as a result of how I took care of it (or didn't)
Even buying "gently used" or demos, can't give you that level of peace of mind.

My thoughts exactly. I love knowing I was the only owner of the vehicle, and how it's been treated since day 1. To me that is worth the depreciation slap in the face.
