| I sold my 360 with accompanying accessories and games to fund my goal of getting an Impreza. I got a decent amount of cash for it so I'm not unsatisfied with my decision.
I still have my One and I've been killing it in FM5. I guess you could say I went pro thanks to the Tofu Shop. :-)
Enjoy the mountain for me, I'll miss racing with you guys.
(FM is giving hints on their FB page that a Japan "Track Pack" and German "Track Pack" are going to be released.) | |

| Lol Good choice. (Actually depends on which model) Still, car over video games? I'd do the same. It was good while it lasted. | |

| Well, I've still got my Xbox One so...
But to be honest I'd be happy with any Impreza that isn't the wagon. I LOVE Subaru. But if you must know i'm shooting for a 98-99 2.5RS so I can try and make a Type-R replica. | |

| Yeah that version does look pretty cool. Add a 22b style wing and a wrx badge and you'll be nothing short of bunta | |

| Well to Bunta's Impreza is the Version 5 limited Type-R with the WR-Type front bumper. (AKA a 98-99 Type-R with the 22b front bumper) which is what i'm shooting for.
Only thing is that L'aunsport of Japan makes the WR-Type front bumper but it's almost $1000 USD, and that isn't including shipping... | |

| Well you can put it that way. Since version 5's are just as rare as the 86 in usa Owning one automatically makes you bunta lol Just some drivers are better and smarter than others. Along the lines of what you said, a Subaru is a subaru . Owning 1 gc8 is probably just as cool as owning an 86. It even has its rally pedigree if that's what you're shooting for lol | |

| Exactly, but you can't get a Version 5 Type-R in the US. The RS2.5 is the usdm version 1-6 but less luxurious and sporty | |

| Ah I see. In that case, I'd aim for like an ID/WRC crossover. In other words, see if you can add that sexy wrx sticker and maybe add rally flaps or something This is all in my opinion however | |

| I'm not into rice. I'm not even into aftermarket. If the parts don't come from Subaru and are OEM or STi, I won't buy them. | |

Plez don't rice the subaru I think Mulchy knows better than to glue a cardboard wing onto the hood. Do you plan on taking the Type-R to the track, Mulchy? | |

| I just think it's the best looking Impreza bumper out there, as well as the V5. The 22b style just makes it look more complete. | |

| I love the World Rally Blue, I think it's one of the most attractive car colors there is, but like Ed said you might as well call it Cliche Blue instead because it's so popular.
I was thinking Cool Grey Metallic. (86F) - Subaru's color code. The same color in the link I posted earlier. | |
