Re: Bye Bye Civic Hello WRX
Congrats on the baby and new car. I have always liked WRX's. Seems to be a natural progression after owning a Honda.

Pretty much,
Everyone I know who owned a Honda always move onto a scooby.

Nice buy though.
What happened to the EM2?
Sold to a 16yr old who just got his license?

Yeah...scoobies need a tune for everything.
Add an intake, get a tune.
Change the wheels, get a tune.
Pump some gas, get a tune.
Change the wiper blades, get a tune.
