My red GT (56k, get broadband n00bs)

[Th3Franz]

I love this car. I'd rather be driving than posting pics but here you go. Yes my shadow is evil.

[SUBE555]

Yeah, we hit a lot of bugs coming home last night. At least she's up to a little over 100 miles! BTW, Dave wants to see both of our cars and might make the jog over to Eau Claire with us depending on the time. Here's my pix from yesterday.

Very nice.. so the car is all dirty now? Such a good looking car. I never thought I would see a subie sit like that.

[mtarone]

Saaweeeeeet!! Love the second to last photo. Looks awesome. Congrats dude. I'd offer to drag you in my GT, but I'm roughly 14,000km away! :P Cheers, Matt

[SUBE555]

The stance is impressive Zevil. The bugs were out in force last night, could hear them go out with a blaze of glory as they battled the windshield all the way home (and lost. :P) It is amazing at how quiet that car is though, just sitting there off, much quiter inside, idle it's quiet, you can barely hear it running. Heck, you almost have to open the windows to hear it rolling and it's still quiet. They did one heck of a job on improving this car! No drags for this kid, yet anyhow, he's still working on his stick shifting. He's doing alright so far, but there is plenty of work ahead as well. :) So what should Franz get for plates? The ones remember being taken are w00t (I know the guy with those plates), EJ257, SUBE555 (mine of course), and I can't remember what else. I think he should get OMGHI2U like Mykrrr from Michigan on the MWSOC. Once you get your final pics Franz, we need a vote!

[gtguy]

And there it is in that final shot, the living, breathing verification of the dual zone in non-Limited GTs. Nice pics, sir. You make me want my wagon all the more. Kevin

[CombatCQB]

I just got these magnets for posting autox numbers on the side of you car from OMGHI2U. I friend in his Mazda6 is part of that "group".

[SUBE555]

I wouldn't say the pics are great, it's not a standalone pics camera (just a Canon Elura 40MC), but they get the job done. I'm feeling the same rush Kevin, but look at it this way, we're getting our Wagons in July and that month will be here in less than 3hrs, so the moon and planets and the whole 9 yards are starting to line up now! :D

Red is weak. Take it back... :lol: :lol:

[racerdave]

Congrats Franz! Looks awesome. Have you had red before? Let me know how hard it is to keep clean... my wife likes the red and white. I gotta see a red in person. Hopefully one of the local dealers will get one soon...

[brady_bunch]

congrats and wow. </drool>

[axis008]

Aw man most of the pictures aren't working for me! Beautiful car though. I had a chance to see the Garnet Red myself and it looks really classy!

[CPTChaplin]

Franz, Thanks for the pics (oh and Sube555 too). I have to say that the Garnet Red has been growing on me. The wife and I will be getting the GT Wagon Ltd in the Red too. I will post some pics when it gets in. The dealer said, "any day now." Just what does that mean though? :?: So here is a question: :?: Is there a replacement Subaru emblem that has a red back ground :?: I think it would look so much more seamless with a red or black background emblem. The blue looks odd to me. J.R.

[CPTChaplin]

I had to change my avatar to the "new" wagon color. Worthless observation: Odd how much you notice a make and color of car once you are looking at or for one... I am amazed at how many silver cars are on the road now-a-days. I am kind of glad to be getting a car that is not exactly like every honda, acura, bimmer, etc... on the road. Every car manufacturer on the road makes a generic silver colored car. J.R.

[axis008]

Just kidding pictures work for me. Looks so sexy!

[labowbow]

:o :o :o :o :o

[ha-evolution]

Looks nice - just like the one sitting on Chilson's lot. I need to go test drive it.

[B4_Maniac]

AWSOME!!!!!!! Dont' let the quite idal fool ya, there is a monster under that hood!!!

I am sure there will be some sort of final finance charge or something. :roll:

[Th3Franz]

[quote name='CPTChaplin'] So here is a question: :?: Is there a replacement Subaru emblem that has a red back ground :?: .[/quote] Not that I am aware of.. but I have seen people take Subaru emblems and actually change the surrounding color. It looks like a lot of work, but some WRX owners have done it. And I liked the silver as well, but I chose red simply because of the fact that it is more unique.

[SUBE555]

WOOHOO, my car is on the board and tires are there.

[racerdave]

Kewl! :) You and Franz are going to have to get together again to assess the differences in handling/response because of the tires. A little comparo. ;)
