WA: Just picked up My White GTS Manual!

Hey guys, just picked up my White GTS Manual from New Town Toyota.

I'm pretty happy with the result! Drive feels great seating position is perfect and every other thing you've heard before is true!
My only gripe with the car is the boot liner coving the spare wheel... I mean c'mon it's hideous!
Also sense of speed is a little out with this car but in time I/We'll get used to it.
Definately glad I went with the GTS and not the GT. It's just the little differences that (in my opinion) make it look better and feel more comfortable.

Anyway no time for talking, time to drive!

Also had a few people pull right up to check the car out and had a few curious people take photo of the car while on the road (don't know what they'll see coz it's pitch black outside!)

Cheers,

Matt

Is that a 'pure' white or the metalic/pearl white like Subaru's current WRX colour?

I thought it was going to be a pearl but looks like a normal white (which I'd prefer!) in your pic?

Either way, looks awesome, congrats!

Hah I think many people in Perth actually want to check out this car since it's mostly what people have ordered :P

I'm in Canning Vale. It had 32km on the clock which is probably on the high side for delivery but I'm just happy I have the car in my garage

Also got the car booked for an Opti-coat job on sunday, will put pics up when it's done!

Another week or 2 till they go on!

Honestly I'm quite happy with the stock suspension for now, it's actually quite tight... it's only the height I don't like.
