Forgot to post this up... on 2/14 I played with a White 92 SS going down the 5 freeway near Camp Pendleton in Southern California. I was on my way to pick up some Prodrive springs for my WRX in Carlsbad. If you're on here, mystery Legacy driver, it was great fun doing some pulls with you on the freeway. I believe you had British Columbia plates and a big N1-looking exhaust. Nice car... it really held its own!

3/20 Saw a blue 91 sedan with an aftermarket scoop and spoiler go the same way as I was going: Everett 41st st to i-5 over the trestle towards Snohomish. Looked pretty good, owner didn't even give me a glance in my 96 Legacy sedan, lol.

Spotted a silver post-facelift SS in Maple Ridge and possibly the same one in Vancouver ( B.C. ).

I thought they were all located in Kelowna & WA, none in the Lower Mainland. Either way, not sure if anybody is on the forum anymore. All on NASIOC with GC/GD's :(

That's like here, I've seen maybe one other SS (same color as mine driven by old lady) and probably 3 different TW...Also driven by old people.

I've seen one white post-facelift ss, driven by an older lady and two different white turbo wagons. All in the same town but never all in the same day.

Crazy thing happened today. I was cruising over to my moms through Tenino, WA and I saw a subaru coming towards me. As I was waving at the driver I noticed it was a 91 Legacy SS! I flipped a bitch and followed him out of town to Lacey and we stopped and got out and realized we both went to school in tenino! Not only that but guess who's car it was....asc_up.

Small world. I told him about the board and I think he's going to sign up. Might even roll down to WCSS with us.

Yeah it was pretty neat to run into another SS finally. I never expected to see one in this little town. There's a touring wagon in town to I've seen a couple times but it's stock and an older guy.

CJ you get that car running and lets go for a cruise sometime!

I'm not sure what he did aside from the stickers. Nothing performance wise I don't think. I feel you with the little to no love for legacy's. STI guys don't have much respect for other subarus, it's as if they only recognize other STIs or don't even know what the other subaru models are.

I did however see a sick lowered forester the other day again out in the middle of nowhere in Oakville, wa and he waved at me which totally caught me off guard since nobody with a newer subaru ever waves around here.

I hate newer Subaru owners. They're the kind of douches who would buy BMWs, but either can't afford them or feel that they're too unique for such a ubiquitous choice (not that they'd use such a word). It's the Evo guys, strangely, who I've found to be cool, real car guys who are interested in and know about more than their one (ugly) car. I suppose it stands to reason that since the cars Subaru sells no longer appeal to me that the owners don't either.

I agree with you guys 100%
I'd say a good 75% of the STi/WRX owners in my area are douche bags that fall under a few categories:
1: Young punk that their parents bought a WRX or STi for... First mods are usually DC, Monster stickers and/or a CAI/Can
2:Stuck up rich dudes that don't know anything about their car besides it's fast, way faster than your car,no matter what it is
3:Punks that came from a Honda background and think they are the shit beacause they bought a car that has 3x the power stock than their civic did, usually end up doing the same mods they did to their civic such as can/cai/stickers/schucks fender "vents", etc....

I usually get waves from older Subies, or my friends with WRXs/STi's. I think I've only gotten one wave from an STi guy and I'm guessing thats cuz I had a huge FMIC (radio flyer).

I just can't wait to be able to SMASH on stock STi's, Evo's, M3's etc. It's gonna take alot of money and time, but i can keep up already so thats a good milestone.

I used to love STi's and I still like the cars, but DUE TO the majority of the owner's that drive them these days, I will probably never have one by choice. I'm going for a Spec B in a couple years for a DD with some tasteful mods and keeping my Legacy for track/ etc...
That is if everything goes according to plan

Pretty sure that guy works at the Schucks near me, kind of weird it's a bit of a drive, but I have seen him on one of the back roads that would lead to Tenino. Last time I saw him he didn't have any of those stickers though, but the wheels and lip were there.

Spotted Redlined I believe, in Clatskanie, at the Northwoods motel yesterday. White SS with gold rota's or prodrives, wrx scoop, lowered, thats all got a look at.


But if this is Redlined. I spotted you at the same place a year or 2 before.

Nice car!

I don't think it's the same guy. I think you saw the previous owner. I believe the guy who bought it from asc_up might have sold it to my friend afterwards. He said he bought it from an asian guy. Don't know if asc_up is asian or not. But I can't see him working in renton as a schuck's. There's tons of auto parts stores around here and other jobs, no reason to go drive all the way up to renton for a low paying job like that.
