Cool Damn Busy Place!

Any one notice the numbers tonight.. Looks like the word is out this is the place to be! Wonder if this will transfer into actual sales??

Mark, I noticed that as well. Over the past week it has been around 300-500 guests it seems like. But tonight it has jumped up to 1,000+

pretty crazy! There's a lot of people interested in these cars.

It could be better for the cars' sales, but it means we'll have noobs with big mouths who b**** and complain.
No turbo this, no awd that, no HIDs, fugly interior, etc.

-___- im really not liking these noobs at all! Its making me wonder if i want to continue reading threads that seem to have real intellectual potential. They turn out to be cry-baby central.

Yeah. We once had a guy who was uncomfortable sharing his home country. It wasn't even a problem with our members. They even encouraged him and he shared it and no one had a problem with it.

Let them hate. They're just showing how much they care in their own perverse way.
It's the whining that irritates me. Especially when it's already covered with an option/aftermarket or on a different model but not that specific one they are looking at...

I'm concerned about spending too much on one.

The whining does get annoying.. but there isn't much we can do. I am extremely happy with the car so far - as long as they keep the price low, which I think we can expect at this point.

This place does feel like home! It's the first thing I check when I sit down at the computer.

The noobs are just idiots. When I became member and there were all the speculations and so, I was the pessimist and wanted 240 PS from a NA 2L, 1000 kg,...and so. But now I love the car so much. Would only want TRD/STI version.
