has it got any tint on the front windows?
i would personally tint them if it hasnt and just not showing in the pic as it looks abit silly with the rears so dark!
other than that gotta say loving it lots
and i think the first scooby on gold rims that looks any good!

Thats what I was gonna say.
The tints are homo, I'm so suprised you have'nt removed them yet.
Other than that I do like it indeed, can we massage?

13k.....
you hear horror stories about impreza's etc... but they tend to follow badly tuned examples. This stock 'red top' STi blueprinted engine has aprox 300bhp out of the box... revs to 8200+rpm
adjustable diffs etc....
0-60 in 4.3 
Down side..... its not an easy car to drive slowly it likes it a bit faster.
Its heavy on petrol, but you have to expect that

DCCD - driver controlable centre diff
yup.... does make a diff but not really an issue on dry tarmac.... or so i though...
Nearly twatted it off a kerb on the wrong side of the road last night 
Gave it a bit to much coming out of a petrol station, back end slid out. Was expecting a wee bit of this but not for it to grip when pointing the wrong way..... lift off
