Nick's WRX
Well the time came when I got sick of being under the bonnet and covered in grease... I decided I wanted a car that was as much fun to drive as the gem, but practical and reliable enough to be a daily driver... and this is what transpired.
2001 MY01 Subaru Impreza WRX Sedan, first of the Bugeyes...
3 inch Turbo Back Exhaust
Turbosmart Type 1 BOV
Wing Removed
Clear tailights
Lowered Springs
18s (ugly wheels)
JVC DVD & 7 inch in dash screen.
2 pairs of splits JBL splits
JBL 12 inch sub
750 watt Amp
Alarm & Immobiliser w/ turbo timer
She's got everything I need: cruise control, all electrics, alarm, comfy (stock) race seats and she gets up and boogeys. AWD is incredible around the bends.
Will get some better pics when I get access to a DSLR.
No major plans for now, just some cosmetics, clean up a few minor dings, some clear indicators and reflectors... maybe some new wheels
Hope you like it! I know I do!

Hi I'm Gene, and I'm jealous, i should also pipe down and finish my coupe...
And when have I ever said I don't like gems anymore? I just don't have the time right now, I have no doubt that i'll buy another in the future, just right now it's not viable and not worth it.
Thanks for the comments guys, yeh I can live with the wheels, they look worse in pictures IMO, and I drive it, I don't stare at it maybe something for the future...
