The story

It was a many years ago, and I was at the dealership having my impreza serviced, and sitting in the showroom was an 08' turbo sport in WRB. It was probably the best looking car I had ever seen, but being dirt broke I knew I could only dream. Fast forward a couple years, my mind would still wonder back to that car and I knew one day I would have one. So I set up a search on autotrader and carmax, and had them e-mail me everyday with matches for that car. A few popped up, but would always be sold by the time I got in touch with the dealer. (which a few times was literally a matter of hours). So I decided to wait. I figured, I'm planning on moving in a year and starting a new job around the same time. So I would wait till after the move to start my search again. I found a nice cheap MR2 and bought that to play around with, and i still had my impreza. Well one day in the summer of 2011 months ago, I was bored at work, so I ran a quick autotrader search and imagine my surprise when the exact car I was looking for, showed up #1 on the autotrader list, and it was only an hour and half away from me, and it was one of the three hundred that had a manual transmission. :Banane17: So long story short, two days later I had a deposit on it (thank you wifey) and the rest will be history.
