Default Friend just going from 04wrx to 06STi

Mate of mine is just buying his 4th scoob.

His current is an 04wrx with plenty of prodrive bits (excluding ppp) and he has decided to change to an 06STi. The cost of change is over £11K

It just amazes me that people have this money to throw away. My suggestion was for him to put ppp onto his wrx and live with it for a while, but no he has gone for the STi.
Give it 6 months till every Tom Dick and motorpoint are selling the new 06STi and he will overnight take another massive hit......Then no doubt moan to me about how much money the car has cost him.

Oh well hey ho

Question

Did you make much of a loss when you sold your STI with 333 upgrade?

Webbers seem pretty good at their deals ... they are constantly looking for stock, they wanted my Impreza (without seeing it).
