This is my 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX STi. Got her in March '08 @ 10xxx miles. The car runs like new and is huge fun.

The last owner had a thing for white. He painted the headlight housings, grill and the inside of the hood scoop. The white-on-white scheme weirded me out a bit at first but I came to appreciate its uniqueness amongst the countless STis in SoCal.

The infamous rear wing. A favorite sight for cops and ricers. When I don't use its downforce while driving, I eat my lunch off of it. The rally pig sticker has the honor of being my first ever mod (if you can call it that) on this car, supposed to give me the driving talent of Petter Solberg in times of peril I hear.

I eventually want to go wingless with a Limited decklid spoiler and throw on WRX sideskirts

As far as wheels are concerned, I'm in no rush. I like the gold BBS stockers but in the future I want to replace them with light grey or gun blue Gram Lights 57 Maximums. The 57Fs also interest me. I'd also like to have Bilstein PSS9s coil-overs but I won't be seeing those on my car for a while.

-HKS Carbon Ti exhaust
-Helix downpipe
