Traded in my Si

[Steven bolling]

Just traded in my 2012 Si for a 2013 Wrx. I felt really sad leaving the dealership and seeing my si there. It was my first brand new car. I am still gonna stay on the site to see some of your cars and the build progression though.
But I do love the wrx, it's a very different feel.

As kenny said, there are actually a number of wrx owners on here. Did you get a hatch or a sedan? Can you say what you're liking/disliking?

We're a big bunch of friendly people...no matter the car we drive Congrats on your new ride!

Congrats! That's a good move, going with this gen of WRX. 2014 will be the new gen and new gens come with new problems, especially the first run. Smaller engines as well As they say there's no replacement for displacement haha

I got the hatch. I haven't really gotten on the throttle, it only has about 200 miles on it so I want to break it in first but it picks up very fast. Interior is pretty basic, which doesn't bother me considering the performance is where the money is spent. I haven't really found anything I dislike about it. Which I'm very thankful for.

so the change of cars was more about having the power the wrx has stock....?

 

[AlienPrime]

just found out about it this morning! Congrats man

 

[Steven bolling]

My fiancé is pregnant so it's our family car!! Haha. And the power was definitely part of the deciding factor.

 

[AlienPrime]

that's sweet! if i ever get married and need more doors for children etc, it'll be an Aristo i think! Perfect family car

Do yourself a favor and get that clear bra'd ASAP. The paint on the subbies is so soft I swear it chips if you look at it hard. Also if interior rattles drive you crazy, buy some felt tape....it will come in handy.

think the paint is worse than honda?

 

[onekneedown]

Hands down worse than honda. I honestly think they have some of the worst paint period. That's one of the biggest gripes from owners.

Yeahs. The FR-S/BRZ Owners are going nuts over rock chips.
