Smear dog shit under the door handles of their car door. That way when they open the door their hands will be full of shit, just like their attitude.

I guess the new STI doesn't look half as bad, at least it no longer looks like a corolla. Also, I really hope this is the return of stock gold wheels!

Yep, now it looks like a Civic:

Hey guys, I thought I'd try posting in here to see if there are any upcoming meets. I live in Truckee / Reno, but haven't met any other 86 owners so I was thinking of making a trip to the bay.

No way, still looks like the same car. They know that though, so they're using different angles to hide the corolla/civic inspired lines. The hood scoop and spoiler look out of place on that body to me. I'm really sad that Subaru did this. That concept was AMAZEBALLS, this? Not so much...

Welcome! Head on over to the casual meets section. There's been regular weekly casual meets in the East and South bay. A closer option for you would probably be the central valley, I think there's a meet in the works.

True, I guess its just slightly less offensive, but could just be my questionable taste (just slap some red mudflaps on that sucker and call it good lol). Honestly though, typical Subaru fashion, it probably will drive great and design might grow on me just when they release the next corolla look alike. I remember thinking the hatch back looked alot like a toyota matrix back when it came out.

Hye there. I'm actually gonna spend MLK weekend in the area and will be bringing my car. Gotta make a stop at Tire Rack to save shipping, lol. PM me and maybe we can get coffee or boba or something. Always nice to meet another owner.
