    One of my pet peeves is the little bit of dust that collects underneath the trip-reset button

    Exterior

    The cars exterior wasnt very bad because it had been garaged its whole life.

    Well we enjoy reading them, great job on in interior, you gave me some sweet ideas. For some reason I want your friend to put four gigantic rally fog lights, on the bumper. That's a JDM Subie right there.

    He got the Impreza a few years ago. He bought it from a Bentley dealership in the area with all the goodies on it. IIRC, it has the 2.0L USDM WRX motor in it. Its always in his garage and maybe puts 500 miles on it a year.

    Hes also got a 2005 STI and 2000 Impreza L race car with 2.5 swap w/ 30R equivalent Borg Warner turbo... should be putting down somewhere around 500AWHP

    Very nice work.
    I don't care how clean it is, I absolutely hate dealing with that carpet.
    It sucks.
