Oooh, what's your dream car? I ended up with my dream car much earlier than expected, it's been great fun but now I think I'm ready to back to a daily runabout style car, haha.

A WRX. I've owned a Liberty and an Impreza before it, all feels like a build up to own a turbo'ed AWD. I'm hopeful its fine as a daily driver, hence not the STI. What is yours?

My brother had a WRX from 2005 or so. It was a limited edition with a tension bar across the motor, single forged wheels, and some special suspension or something. One of 200 made.

It was a smart move because it was more feral than a regular WRX, but you still had some of the modern car comforts before getting into the stripped back race spec STI.

they have a club spec out at the moment. only 150 available to purchase. Sound exactly like a modern version of this. Sadly, I think the mrs might veto a racing spec one, which is fair I guess.
