in a nutshell, the STi hands down best car I've ever owned. However after almost 2 years of ownership I decided I had an unhealthy fixation with my car and I needed to step away from it. I bought a truck but I cannot stand the truck so after 4 months of driving a 17' tacoma I'm selling it for the BRZ.

things that made me sell the STi point form
-too fast for me I sped everywhere
-too capable made me extremely impulsive
-I spent all my waking hours meticulously maintaining my car
-I spent any remaining hours talking about my car
-It was very unhealthy for me to like my car as much as i did

Sounds like you need a hobby that doesn't involve cars at all.

This is why I build models! If I didn't I would probably fall into the car trap (again) very quickly.

Taking my baby out on March 15th. I really wanna go to meets this summer to see other twins so I have an idea of what mods I'd like to do next. Look forward to seeing you guys.

Gibtronikz · 05-18-2017, 07:52 AM

Sixstars · 05-19-2017, 04:22 AM
