Smile nother newbie

Hi folks

Thought I'd best say hello after picking up my first scooby a couple of weeks ago.

Its a new MY05 WRX which I bought after getting bored of driving a bmw 330ci sport auto and so far I've had no regrets.

I'm currently 700 miles into the run in period and have for the most part been keeping to the 4K limit, even though the urge to stick my foot down is killing me.

At least the brakes are starting to feel like they should now, for the first few miles it was like trying to stop an oil tanker, which isn't good when your trying to negotiate rush hour traffic.

Here's looking forward to that first service...

I went for a silver in the end, mainly due to the fact that my last three cars have been black and I didn't want to go there again. I do like the WR blue but there are just too many of them around this way.

The only mod I'm thinking of in the near future is an ICE upgrade cause the standard system is rather poor. What makes it worse is that my brother-in-law has a jap spec legacy turbo with a 13 speaker system in it (which is rather nice).
