touched a 2004 WRX STi
I saw it this morning in the parking lot at work. I pulled up next to it and looked it over. The first thing I noticed was that the monsterous brake calipers come within 1/4" of touching the spokes on the wheels. What I noticed next was that the hood scoop is more like a snout! Its huge. Too huge for my tastes. Then I stepped back about 10 feet, looked at the STi, looked at my newly lowered SVX, and easily decided that I'd rather have my SVX. My SVX is not as fast and probably can't hang with it in the corners, but the SVX has way more style.

I just climbed out of one about 20 minutes ago after running it to the gas station, and gave an impromptu test "ride" to some guys who were ogling it at the gas station.
 Do I get a cookie?

I was supposed to go in June, but they came to me at the last minute and told me I couldn't go, because there was "nobody else who knew how to do my job"... blech. It's tough being indispensable. I'm trying to get it rescheduled for August, we'll see what happens.
