Didn't even think about one & filled my pockets with a large bundle of money & went to buy my dream car of a new M3. Took it out a drive & it did heehaw for me so with the money jingling in my pocket I passed a Subaru dealer & asked for a shot of a WRX & loved it, so told him to wrap up the Sti in the showroom as she had pulled lol.

Now on my second.

Wanted to buy a M3 to upgrade from my 325 as I loved that but missed the power of my old cossie

Drove one and wasn't impreressed but the ex loved subarus so I went to test drive one just to shut her up as I hate the look of them,,,, drove it and it was EXACTLY what I was looking for how I wanted a car to drive so bought it there and then but idea was sell after the planned ring trip,,, loved it on the ring that I've kept it for over 6 years lol
