Taken the plunge......!!
 

Hi all, newbie here! After a test drive this morning, couldn't resist it, so I've taken the plunge, ordered a MY05 WRX in Crystal Grey, delivery sometime in January. Haven't plicked up the courage to tell anyone I live with yet, but had to tell someone, so it's you guys!! Can't wait till the new year now!

Paul

Well done mate you won't regret it!! Welcome to the forum as well. You'll get a lot of help and advice on here, and as it's your first Scooby you'll need it!!

Congratualtions and Welcome!

Still a newbie myself. By the way, the grin will last a long, long time :)

I'm on my 2nd car in 2 years and i'm still grining!

Welcome to the site.

I've been looking at the Crystal Grey... it's a :cool: colour :)

Welcome :D

Welcome to the "I'll never spend anymore money" on the Car club and the Exhaust sounds loud enough ;)

PPP next then :D

Thanks for the messages of support folks. The time's dragging already - is it really still 2004???!!

The weeks will drag by - I promise ......... ;)

congrats to you mate

what deal did you get on your new car

ie partx cash etc?

Congrats Paul,

You won't regret a single minute mate. Got my 03 WRX about a month ago and I fcuking LOVE it. I'm not going to do any mods at all and I'm just going to leave it as it is. I've not been on the ProDrive site at all...... errr..... honest.....

Im sure you will enjoy it when the day comes to pick it up :)

Plenty of time to save up for the Optimax tanker full of fuel you'll use in your first few weeks of motoring!

You'll love it

Nor me...... honest..... :)

Paul

Me too
 

Hi Paul

Another Paul here and that makes 2 of us... ordered mine on the 22nd too!!!!! been told 6 to 8 weeks tho! MY05 WRX in silver. Getting it through Virgin cars, EU import but UK car and saved a small fortune (probably spend it on optimax!)

I'm not looking at the calender and I'm not thinking about it......... at all...... erm..... honest.... you didn't see me here........

really upset the local Scooby dealer.... went down to see if he could get anywhere even remotely close to the Virgin price (which he couldn't) so i said thanks and proceeded to sit in the showroom WRX for 2 hours and 2 complimentary cups of coffee before saying "see ya then I'd better get home and order my car!" Hopefully won't see said salesman when I take Shaggy (that's his new name!) in for his first service.

Paul

P.S. remember.... we didn't have this conversation..... not until I at least have a confirmed delivery date !!!!! :)

Had my 05 WRX (crystal grey too - good choice) for a couple of weeks. Really pleased with it - had the 18" Anthracite OZ Prodrive alloys fitted from new and will get PPP on the first service. Pics in the gallery if you want to have a look and make sure you post yours when you get it :)

btw the wait for the car might seem like hell but it's nothing compared to the frustration of having to keep it under 4k for the first 1000 miles ;)
Enjoy !

Welcome mate, enjoy, hope the time flies by :)
