Thanks everyone! After years of reading about rumors, then seeing spy photos, then concepts, then the unveiling, then watching development documentaries, it's almost surreal to own and drive this car, knowing so many people worked so hard to make a car that whose sole focus is driver enjoyment and involvement. I've been finding myself peeking out the hall window at home when I walk by...it just hasn't sunk in yet.


I believe Turbowned had the car lowered on Eibach Sport springs but the car is back on factory springs now. He did leave some nice touches on the car, and I haven't been underneath it yet so there may be a few Easter eggs hiding down there


The exhaust tips I bought over-the-counter, but they are not cheap...even with my employee discount, they ran me about $90 for the pair, and that doesn't include the screws which are sold separately. Fortunately, the original screws came out okay. The '15 tips mount the same way the tiny tips do, so the fit and tightness are perfect.

Super jealous of the color - I didn't know that existed in Subaru form, because I didn't start looking at this car until 2014. And, just to warn you, that whole thing about walking by and staring at your car will probably be a permanent affliction. I've had mine since August, and my daughter caught me a week ago just standing in 5he garage, staring at mine

He took great care of that car. I remember it was the first time I'd seen Tom's in person. Not to mention the ridiculous amount of alcantera it had. Good find, hope you got a great price, too!
