This one is since its the Limited model which means climate control, leather, heated seats, etc. It also has Homelink, an auto-dimming mirror, and an in-dash 6 CD changer so it's pretty well equipped. She has an STI short-shifter in it which feels great; I also really like how the clutch feels compared to the Evo.

Re: WRX Mods
You've done more work than I have! I'll remember this when we're installing your exhaust and get to the "time to bust some knuckles and get bloody" part  |

"Could" is the key word there 
I think Scheides and I will sit inside and whine about how hungry we are while Janelle and Anna install the exhaust. Ahh sweet sweet revenge  |

Thank you! Too bad that pic was taken before I got my new shift knob... The stock one is kind of ugly. |

Re: WRX Mods
When Dave Buschur was removing the stock exhaust from his 800-mile WRX he had to torch some of the bolts off  |

Re: WRX Mods
Wow thats nuts! After I do exhaust work I always grease the bolts and nuts so they come off easy if they ever need to again.
