'06 Galaxy Gray EX Sedan

Picked the car up the other week. I sold my 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STi (due to another child on the way). I can't believe the difference in gas consumption. One tank of gas in this car goes forever! I miss the STi performance, but I don't miss the costs! I tried to upload a picture, but I think I took the shots at too high a resolution. Oh well.

Funny I traded in my 05 subaru impreza outback sport as it got nailed on the side in an accident and sustained $14,000 worth of damage.

After I got it back, it just was not the same and the front end made way to much noise for my comfort.

Oh, my gas mileage was horrible on my impreza, I was filling up every other day, now I fill up once a week or maybe once every 8-10 days.

I do miss my scooby though

Thumbs up

I just picked up my Galaxy Gray EX Sedan w/Navi on Tuesday. It was tough to find out here in the Bay Area (found 2 which sold before I could get there). Not a single problem so far, and wow, is it fun to drive compared to my old compact SUV!

If you enclose the URL of the photo inside the 'insert image' process, but delete the garbage after the JPG extension you get this:


Great photo of a nice looking vehicle. The text refers to two images, but I'm seeing only one.
I explained it in an
earlier post.
BTW, About 800 X 600 is a great pixel count for images on civicforums.com

License plates can be great or terrible. It usually depends more on you than on the plate. Look at my avatar - obviously, I'd be elated with NRA ###, but outraged with NEA ###. But I know that there are many good people whose perspectives are exactly reversed, and that's a good thing for our society. And some people don't care or have no clues (they're still my friends)

Out here in California, it could take another 2 months to get my plates. I hope I can keep my fingers crossed that long. Heh.. I've been thinking about vanity plates (+$90/yr), so if I get something bad maybe that will be my "good reason."
