On one hand, I don't identify as a drifter. On the other hand, I just said to myself, "Maybe now I'll have enough power to stay sideways through that straightaway."

Maybe it's time to come out of the closet: I'm here, I oversteer, get used to it.

My friend got a 2015 WRX in January but she just traded up to a STI Limited instead. Shortly after this picture was taken I went around to the back to hear it start up, and she proceeded to rev the ever living shit out of the engine.

I've never been so happy to breathe in toxic exhaust fumes!

haha, I knew you would like that! Looks even better in person, that color really works well for the WRX.

I would love an STI but I wouldn't trade in my FR-S for one. I'd like to have both and daily drive the STI and keep the FR-S for weekend fun time.

Hahaha first time I saw her she was speeding a bit, but I couldn't be mad. I'm pretty sure we live near each other or at least ride around the same general vicinity. My GF was upset that another chick in the area beat her out on getting an STI. She's been debating getting one or not working while she finishes school lol.

isn't that a prerequisite for owning an STi or Evo?

That's one of the reasons I ditched my STi for a Scion. Lol
