Got a new car!!!! 56k is ok if you want to wait.
Well, the main reason I was on this site was to learn things about my brother's car- 2001 Honda Civic LX. I learned not only a lot about this car but many as well. This site has always been great with helping others out or just killing some time. I drove a 1991 Acura Legend and loved it. It was a 3.2L V6 and still runs great. Ok, back on topic.. here is what I just got:
Front:
Rear:
Interior:
Front Brakes: 4pot 11.5in.
Rear: 2pot 11.3in.
2.5L Turbo Boxer Engine:
Miscellaneous shots:
Yea, I am not the grreatest photographer, took this at night, obvisiously, except for the one in the day time.. haha. I have driven a 2003 model (friend's car) and test drove a 2005 (dealership). This one was actually cheaper than the 2005. The shifts feel smoother and the suspension is excellent so far. Also, I noticed more low end compared to the previous models I didn't rev it past 3000rpms either. Still learning the aspects of this car and driving stick. I got this with 5.5miles when they handed me the keys, but prior to that, they took it off a platform, washed it, and filled it up, so it had less then that. Close to 100 miles- I have 99 miles on the odometer, so break-in period is still occuring. I am very happy and excited about this car. Hope this thread didn't bore you too much. By the way, this is the TR model. Any thoughts, comments, suggestions are welcome. Thanks for looking.

Rep Power: 276 Woah, cheaper than the 05? I don't like how they got rid of the brembos and aftermarket wheels. Also, the interior looks more economy and less rally.

Rep Power: 0 Sweet car. I bought a wrx recently and I'm absolutley loving it! You have to check out www.nasioc.com . It has like 90k members and a lot of usefull informations, especially if you want to mod it. I like the TR, that's probably what I would get if I got an 06. (TR is "tuner ready" basically a regular wrx minus everything you don't need)
You should definately get a new TBE and get some EM when it is available. A TBE will give you around 20whp if it's catless, no joke. And please don't get a atmospheric BOV and be very carefull if you want a intake. They have been known to cause a lot of problems. Check out that sit and enjoy the new car!

Rep Power: 0 I'll have to get some. It's an 02 PSM (silver) wrx. I have a catless uppipe, catless downpipe, a 3" exhaust, perrin IC hoses, a IC water sprayer, K&N intake (i may take this off), 17x8 rota boosts with Falken Azenis RT-615, it's debagged, whiteline endlinks, and a set of Tein coilovers waiting to be installed.
PM me if you ever have any questions!

Rep Power: 0 A police officer pulled a guy over for speeding.
Officer: May I see your drivers license?
Driver: I dont have one. I had it suspended when I got my 5th DUI.
Officer: May I see the owners card for this vehicle?
Driver: Its not my car. I stole it.
Officer: The car is stolen?
Driver: Thats right. But come to think of it, I think I saw the owners card in the glove box when I was putting my gun in there.
Officer: Theres a gun in the glove box?
Driver: Yes sir. Thats where I put it after I shot and killed the woman who owns this car and stuffed her in the trunk.
Officer: Theres a BODY in the TRUNK???
Driver: Yes, sir.
Hearing this, the officer immediately called his captain. The car was quickly surrounded by police, and the captain approached the driver to handle the tense situation:
Captain: Sir, can I see your license?
Driver: Sure. Here it is.
It was valid.
Captain: Whos car is this?
Driver: Its mine, officer. Heres the owner card.
The driver owned the car.
Captain: Could you slowly open your glove box so I can see if theres a gun in it?
Driver: Yes, sir, but theres no gun in it.
Sure enough, there was nothing in the glove box.
Captain: Would you mind opening your trunk? I was told you said theres a body in it.
Driver: No problem.
Trunk is opened; no body.
Captain: I dont understand it. The officer who stopped you said you told him you didnt have a license, stole the car, had a gun in the glovebox, and that there was a dead body in the trunk.
Driver: Yeah, Ill bet the lying son of a bitch told you I was speeding, too.
