Nothing personal Eric, but...

<rant ON> 

I dunno...WRX owners are notoriously snobby and know
nothing about their cars, much less other lowly
Subarus like the 2.5RS! You'd have to sign a waiver
pledging not to be infected by the WRX-snob virus. :)

Seriously though, there's been a lot of talk on the
i-Club about how, now that the WRX is out, the once
friendly and enthusiastic Subaru clan has been taken
over by rice boys, rich kids, and generally ignorant
or unfriendly people. One of my friends even attempted
to say "Hi, that's a nice Impreza you've got there",
and got the response "It's **NOT** an Impreza! It's a
WRX!" Can you believe that?

Sure, there are definitely nice WRX owners, but I miss
getting smiles and waves from fellow Impreza owners. I
guess that's the downside of driving a popular car.

...And if I had a dime for every time in the past year
somebody walked up to me and said "Dude, is that the
new turbo!?!", I'd be RICH!!! What's worse is then
they totally blow me off when I say "no". Suddenly I'm
not cool any more.
