Default Just Another Blue Subaru

I had a chance to shoot a friends WRX this weekend.
This car is faster then a stock STi and handles better then a stock STi.
I was very surprised of the performance of this WRX.

Full Photoshoot can be seen on my flickr account

Here are a few posted up for your viewing pleasure.

Looks really damned clean... I really like the grill area, I hate the factory one. I'm in the market for a VW R32 and after seeing this WRX... I may reconsider.

Yeah one of the cleanest WRX i've seen in person.
He plans on making the suspension more aggressive and dropping the car lower.... Wheel fitment on it is good.

He will be autocrossing it here in about a month or so. Im super excited to see how he does.

Ill be honest ... i'd go for a WRX instead of a R32 but just my opinion tho

Nice pics OP.

But as for the VW R32 vs. WRX talk, I would have to say an MK4 R32 wins hands down. It may not be the fastest car, but the MK4 R has all the details right. And I love the R32's stock exhaust sound as well as the interior. The R32 is very rare compared to WRX's which are a dime a dozen. Although this is my opinion and its very biased because I have driven the VW R32 many times.

For some reason the earlier wrx's looks more aggressive. Now the evo is backwards. The first one looks like a minivan now the newers one are evil badass looking.

Clean shots anyway.

Yes those are 17's but purely for performance reasons.

Thank You Fellow Z Owners!
I appreciate the feed back on the photos!

Very nice! Still not sure how I feel about the WRX sedans of that generation, but that one is done very well for what it is.
