Where are you from?
Another PNW member here! I've been casually browsing the forums for a bit, curious about the GRC. Put a deposit down, so thought I'd introduce myself!

What's your current car?
My wife drives a Model Y, and I'm not driving anything! I'm working remote now and we are trying the 1 car life. It's way harder than I thought, so going to get a fun manual car again. I was looking at used STIs, but they are all beat to hell, approaching the price of new cars, and may blow up..

Project cars? You may want to share with us
None at the moment, but if used car prices ever go down I want to buy a Bugeye WRX for a project car. I am a little nervous about the negative reaction as a"Subie transplant".

What's your hobbies?
Love playing and watching soccer! Used to be a Sounders season ticket holder before having kids. I do graphic design on the side of my development job, and have always loved art. I'm also going to take up archery because why not.

Welcome! Just don't carry the attitude of some subie transplants, and we'll be good! Thankfully, no one around here has done that that I've seen. ;)

Yeah, for sure. Definitely have a reputation. I guess I don't understand the blind loyalty - I just love cars, if I could afford it I'd have a ton of different brands. Subaru just hit different for me for a bit.

Anyone who loves cars in general is cool in my book. My rule of thumb is that all cars are cool in some way.

Except Camrys. They're boring. No power, no sportiness. Worst of all, it's so freaking reliable that you never get to turn wrenches on it. Which is all the reasons my wife loves hers.
