Turning 23 this September I planned to stop aging when I hit 21, but we can't all get what we want so.

Yeah exactly. SOA is normally completely out of touch with what their buyers actually want (or who they even are in the first place). This car is no different. That's why we never get any of the options that we want. Where's the carbon fiber roof option?
I would have gotten that even if it drove the price of the limited up to 30k.

They're still convinced that the WRX is driven by the same 47 year old demographic...look how that worked out, my campus is full of them.

There's only 2-4 on any given day here. Honestly, not that many cool cars at all. There's an older Mustang GT I see, a few new (09) V6 Mustangs, the occasional BMW 3 series, a clapped out NA Miata, etc.. Perhaps an even smaller handful of those guys are enthusiasts. Small liberal arts school FTL.

Lol yeah I go to Virginia Tech, pretty big school. Walking to class one day I counted 5 WRXs. I'm not complaining, just an observation, lol.

That poll is such garbage (not the thread just the options).. why are the early early-mid 20s being pared to 16 year olds? WTF?
