My new 2015 WRX-STi
 

I love it!!! Arrived yesterday! I will describe more later. Enjoy! :) :driving:

Enjoy, I m an EVO guy but this color is really nice.

Dave,

Thanks! How is LA? Im from Westlake Village. Color is interesting overall. Lighter in bright light and is darker in fading or dim light. So far this is a very very fun car to drive.

Congrats.

Nice car and color too!

I considered an Evo/STi as well prior to purchasing the Z but I wanted something different than a turbo I4 after driving an SRT-4 for 7 years.

Good luck!

Wha?! :eek: :)

Congrats!

Very nice, enjoy!

Thanks for the warm greetings for the car. Day 3 and Im still having alot of fun even just breaking it in. The sound is amazing and powerful. This is a very unique machine. I love the interior. Very nice driving position and visibility from the drivers side cockpit. Well laid out and purposeful.

Will get a nice detail on it tomorrow. Full wax etc if the weather will cooperate.

Take some pictures of the interior please? I'm On the edge of liking one but I couldn't get past the cheap interior of the old one.

Nice color, congrats!

It's a big step up from the previous generation forsure. I drove Sharif's at Zdayz last year and was impressed.

wauuu best color ever!!!! :eek: :ugh2:

Nice ride!

a BIG CONGRATS!!! She looks awesome in that color. :tup:

Love LA, great weather and hot babes, yeah the STI's are very fun cars indeed not to mention the immense power you can get for a few k. lets not forget the RUMBLEEEEEE. anytime you coming back to cali haha?

Sweet! Enjoy!

Nice, Great color!

Thanks again everyone for the cheers. Its been a busy day today. Finally got the full first complete detail done including wax etc. Car is showing zero wear and scratches or damage at all from shipping. Amazing since the car went from factory in Japan to Florida to me here in Germany. Impressive as Darth would say :)

Out building the kilometers for the break-in. Zorched up to the Porsche Factory for some pics etc. I figured Id take the boxer motor Subi to see the place where the best boxer-configured engines are made :) A few pics to peruse.

One of the Museum and factory dealer from the round-about at the Porsche Factory. Another of the STi at the factory main gate parking area.

One of the buildings always has a huge poster of one of the new cars. Today this building was adorned with this poster - Translation is 'Hard Shell. Hard Core' The new Cayman GT4

Quiet professional looking pictures and a fun place to explore as well.

Why the shipping from Florida to Germany?

I've been mulling over a new STI for some time. Love it. Congrats! I'll likely wind up with a Porsche (funny that you were taking pictures over there as I was just at the dealer early taking one out for a drive) but if not, probably the STI. Only driven the WRX so far. But more power? And a bigger scoop in the hood? why not? :tup:

I love the new version I think it looks really good and with winters like these it would come in handy

As a former 2x time subaru owner, ill always have a bit of love for subies :tup:

I love the New STI's congrats. Personally though I woulda waited for Subaru to replace the ancient EJ series engine you got in there.

Here ya go. Does not feel cheap overall and Im quite pleased thus far. Do remember you dont 'drive' the interior lol :) Hope this helps your decision process a touch!

Also I LOVE the seats in this car. BIG time!

Sounds like a win - WIN :) I think you will be pleased either way. Ya man - that scoop lol :)

Yep its been an engine with some years on it. Still sounds amazing and I really liked the look and feel of the car with it. Could not resist!

Thanks - it was a tough call between this blue and the darker Galaxy Pearl blue. Both are great. I still debate lol.

Thank you!! Wanted to see some real world shots!! Definitely an improvement over last gen!! Enjoy!!

Man I love this car! I'm obsessed with STi's. I love the new look and the boy racer wing, not to mention the best suspension and handling under 50K. Must be pretty rare to have an STi in Germany I'm assuming?

She's a beaut!!!

Yes quite rare. Not many around at all. Some for sale but in all of Germany now its probably 30 or so at the dealers. My dealer has 1. Next closest was 50km away per the online site I use here.

Really this a fun sort of becoming 'old school' performance car. Hydraulic steering etc. Nice firm manual gearbox. Its a big contrast to my M235i for sure! Ive never owned anything like it before. Also my first Subaru.

Thanks. Im pleased so far. Just need to keep driving and get through the break in lol!

Get it tuned ASAP. There's a nasty lean spot in the OEM fuel map on the EJ257s.

nice car, unfortunately here in my company alone there are 5 Sti's , all blue one 4 door and the rest wagon/ hatch. Never driven one but one of my friends took me for a spin and he drives like he stole the car so yes impressive but still felt like a regular car, not sure how to explain this. Maybe I'm so used to having so many blind spots that being able to see "more" is abnormal to me :driving:

The boxer rumble is what makes this vehicles soul. I would never get the WRX version.
