I love WRXes. I have an ‘11 hatchback. I had a BMW 330Ci before it, and the WRX is way more fun to drive.
Edit: To be clear, it’s not that I didn’t love the 330Ci. I had it for over 10 years and it’s still one of my favorite cars. It was really hard to let it go
the Mini Cooper is one of my favorite vehicles of all time. the new ones are meh.
I owned a 1984 300zx turbo with some pretty basic mods. My dream is an 88 Shiro. that will get the big upgrades. I’m an aircraft mechanic who’s built a few cars with my buddies. 87 supra (600+), 240sx (sr20det), miata (scca).
my current project is a 1979 honda CB650 cafe racer. I’ve never ridden or worked on a motorcycle. i wanted to try. it’s SO CHEEEEAAAAPPP!!! i love it.

Know a little about cars and metal fab. Cause that’s what my dad did for a living. He worked for west coast customs, chip foose, metal crafters, one of the banks project (the diesel truck one), and a bunch of other stuff. So I guess I know just a little under the hood but more about the… car world?
I do all of my own work except for tire mounting and balancing so I guess I’m a car guy. I’ve got a Forester (yes I’ve already done the head gaskets, LOL) and a band minivan but my favorite is the CJ7, been across the country a couple times in it.
Currently I’m rebuilding the transmission from my dad’s '72 Cougar.
I’ve got a '13 WRX hatch sitting at ~400whp. Just about full bolt-on upgrades and has been my DD since I bought it new! The hatchback is great practicality wise and my favorite style of the car aside from some of the blobeyes.
