Welcome to the forum man. I frequent the glen burnie/pasadena area since I live in Curtis Bay. I had my crickets fixed at your shop but they unfortunately made a return trip. Oh well. Welcome to the forums! I knew a lot of the Subaru techs when I lived in AK. Definitely good people to know!

welcome! I am right down the road from you on Oakwood Rd although my relationship with Subaru is with the Annapolis shop.
No BRZ yet, have to close on this house purchase first.... Also, no affiliation, but @Pure Automotive has a shop locally and does great work. Check it out. |

My BRZ was my first new car too. My wife has had like 4 new ones but all the ones I bought were always used. Granted they were still fun!

Welcome to the forums! Always good to have another tech on here!
Initial impressions? vs. 2004 STi? Nick C.

I feel like it's much more enjoyable to drive than the STi, nowhere near as fast in a straight line but the handling is definitely superior. You can feel that its a much lighter car and I really am impressed with how responsive it is for a 2.0L NA.
I plan to get your interior lighting kit asap! Jaylyons1 It's cool having a new car that only I have owned and will probably keep for a long time. Before this my 04 STi was my newest car. I've owned: 04 STi 02 WRX 99 Integra LS 98 Integra GSR 98 Legacy GT 94 Legacy SS 90 Legacy Sedan 88 Civic Hatch 86 Subaru GL-10
