Unhappy Sold the Z28

After over 6+ years of daily driving my 2000 Z28, I finally got rid of it for a new 2007 WRX TR M5.

It was time. This was my only car (besides my wife's), but I needed to get something a little more pratical.

The Subaru is plain, no spoiler or any other flashy stuff. Just a 5-speed turbo AWD sedan. Quick and nimble enough for me to have fun!!!

I want to extend my thanks to the "495 crew", Don, Marcel, Keith, John and others who I forgot their names (sorry), for the assistance, and buying/selling of items.

Anyway, I'll still be around lurking as usual.

Steve

It seems like I'm finding the same info from the wrx forums. I have no intentions of modding this car. Thanks for the heads-up!
