Soon to be former Subaru/ EVO Owners (Sti,evo, Bugeye, wrx, legacy, etc...)

Well as a former owner of an 05 sti I am really looking forward to the rear wheel drive fun (esp in the winter! )

Who else had an sti or wrx or evo?

I was pretty active over on nasioc and a mod at a few other sites

so lets see you all come out of the wood work... i def. recognize some screen names from iwsti.com, nasioc and evoM

I currently have an 02 WRX. I don't know if I will be keeping it after I get the 128i. But I was thinking myself how many Suby owners were going to move up (or over depending on your love of the Suby) to the 1 series. I love my Suby but I am not really impressed with the new Impreza. I would most likely go with the Legacy 3.0R if I did get another FHI car.

I have an 04 STi and considering 135i because the new STi is hatch and the EVO X is heavy.

I have an 04 WRX, and am very active on i-club.com and sell stuff on nasioc lol. Getting the 135i cause the price is the same compared to the STi, and there's talk of mark up on top of MSRP at dealers in the Bay Area. So that makes my choice pretty clear.

1990 Legacy, 1998 Impreza RS RP4, 2003 WRX, 2005 STi, and 2007 FXTSC owner.

I will hardly be a former owner, but I am not going to be a BMW owner for a little while longer. Just waiting for the first year and demand to decrease a little. Might also check out a used one as well. I will be buying when the time is right, however. I have driven too many good BMWs to not eventually buy well price/performance ones.

Former 05 CGM Sti stage 2 owner. Flipped it 1 block from my parents house on May 2006. Fell asleep at the wheel and hit a parked car. I'll be doing an employee lease on a 1er maybe next year.
