Get one and see if you can get a turbo one they are nasty as can been when done up correctly. Put like 2 or 3 thousands into it and you will have one mean drifter or a car just to punch it and spin the tires.

Well, actually... With a melted clutch (got stuck in a ditch), no windows (vandals broke it), enough vacuum leaks to idle at 2400 (even with the manual idle speed backed all the way out), no 5th gear (came that way), hot wired (ignition broke while offroading, had to hot wire it entirely by guessing with a positive lead coming from where the cigarette lighter used to be), massively over heated 4 times (heater line busted, and ghetto rigging didn't always hold), AND, 3 flat tires, it was still able to drive itself onto the tow truck when I was forced to scrap it. In fact, it drove STRAIGHT! Unibody and suspension survived repeated 5-6 foot jumps.

I'm looking to buy one for daily driver/rally duty while my CST10 is down with body work. They are some tough little bastards

Always been a fan of the S series. One of my most favorite mini-truck's out there. Next to a Dodge Dakota that is.

I love it. I got it in March, and so far the coolant temp. sensor crapped out, and earlier this week i got the ignition coils replaced on a recall. Other than that i've had no problems with it and its a blast to drive. It's also a lot of fun because theres a lot of people around here that are into VW's so theres a lot of meets and stuff.

They are nice cars, until you meet that little thing called the Volkswagen Gremlin. He hides in the electrical system and likes to make screwy things go wrong that take forever to diagnose and repair.

yeah too perfect. There isnt even enough room to slide a piece of paper in width wise. and the back tires sit just perfectly on the tail gate enough it wont roll back off. Strap it down and it sits solid

yeah those are stock wheels. still waiting to find a decently priced set of BBS's

and i rock a clean legacy, not a dirty impreza

its got a sti bottom end now.
7" in dash dvd touch screen
Rallitek reflash (super lame, but it was free haha)
and ive got a sti turbo and 4" down pipe waiting for it. Just waiting to collect a front mount, and a aftermarket rotated intake mani and a utec so it can get a protune

Then im gonna buckle down on the appearance. Get my wheels and coil overs and front windows tinted. then probably go with a wrx 4 pot brake set up.

and who knows from there, this will be years down teh road haha. I've got a siiick project under the works right now thats taking up all my money!!!
