spec.B Dream Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 The wife and I just finished the 7 hour drive from Omaha to Fayetteville, AR. I'll be at Adventure Subaru at 9am to pick up my 08 spec.B. I'll give a full write up with pics when I get home Sunday. Just thought I'd say hello to everyone. I can't wait to become a contributing member of this forum. I'm too excited to sleep. Office Space is on in the hotel, great move. Anyway, you all have a great night. I'll be driving most of the rest of the weekend, , but I'll post again on Sunday or Monday. -Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-Tank Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I remember I couldn't sleep the couple nights before I picked up my LGT. It's a little embarrassing, but sometimes I just go outside and look at it. Then other times I just sit in it... parked. Is it unhealthy to be this infatuated with a car? Probably. Congratulations. Have fun with your new ride, brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan007CT Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 ^hu? breaking in an engine is what he was referring to. Your not suppose to run it at the same rpm (speed) for a long period of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosscarlson Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Congrats man, can't wait to see pictures of her. Nothing more fun than driving a new car home (well that's a stretch but it's still fun!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spec.B Dream Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 Thanks for the replies and words of wisdom. The car is actually a used 08. I was looking for a new one, but when you can get one that is one year old for 6k less than the cheapest I could find new, that deal was a no-brainer for me. This weekend was quite busy for me, so I didn't get to the write up. I promise I'll get post up everything after work today. This is by far the best car I've ever driven. Coming from a Civic Si, it is very nice to be able to accelerate on the highway in 6th gear. Made the drive home much nicer. More to come tonight. -Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siper2 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Yeah I agree on that. New cars are special, but for most of us, not $6K more special. My car was from a dealer auction, so I got it for a pretty good price too. Higher miles than I'd like, and it's not perfect, but for what I can afford right now........ it works.

spec.B Dream Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 So the story is getting long, and Rachel says it's time for bed. After being married for three years, I've learned that wifey gets what wifey wants (especially when the suggestion of certain nighttime activities goes with the suggestion of shutting down the computer). For now, here's a teaser: http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg313/civexsi/DSC_0107.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
