“Yeah, you could get one.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
“And you don’t find the wing ridiculous?”
“Oh, I do, but it suits you.”
“... hey!”

My wife had a thing for guys in big redneck trucks, and instead married me when I had a beat up 91 Civic, that she misses almost as much as I do. She says it was the perfect car for 21 year old me and the shenanigans we got into, and she’s 100% right. That included he times ir went muddin’

I always ask people I know what car they want, thus far my ex really likes BMWs but is probably getting a Kia Sportage GT line with the big engine.
She should get a Niro and like... just give it to me.
but I digress. The best answer I’ve heard is from another woman I know that also moved to Arizona (why is everyone moving there!) and she wants a Yamaha R6 because she, and I quote, “ raced small bikes until mom did not let anymore” and her dad has “an assortment” of motorcycles.

Your girlfriend, is she single by any chance?

Essentially the one piece in the back that makes it an STI sadly makes you look like a yob. Pick up an STI in a color code shared with Premium/Limited models, and start scouring boneyards for decklids, you might get a close variant match.

The wing delete is an option from Subaru.

GO WITH IT!
One of the first things I ever said to my wife was to ask “Whose car is that in the driveway?” Referring to a 2005 Volvo S40 T5 awd, in late 2005. It was also that nice blue they had at the time. “Mine.” She answered. “Is it a manual?” I asked, knowing what the answer was very likely to be. “Of course!” She answered.
That was a good start.
Best of luck with this one.

But that’s how everyone knows it’s an STI!

“Yeah, you could get one.”
I’d have stopped the conversation here after getting the answer I needed.

Or you can order one with a wing delete directly from Subaru.

Don’t worry, your flat brimmed hat and vape pen will let everyone know what you drive.
I didn’t have an STi, but I did have a WRX:
But now I drive a BRZ (same wheels in both pictures, lol):

A buddy of mine got one last year. His wife was cool with the car (as long as it didn’t have the wing) and even the cost of buying the car. What she wasn’t ready for was the cost to insure it.

But half of my love for the WRX STi is the absurd wing.

You can order it from the factory with a lip spoiler, but then what’s the point?

Coming from Ontario, anything less than $3k a year is a great deal for me.

Go for it then, embrace your inner hoon. They can also be used at lunch time (for thinner people). You simple sit on the trunk with your legs through the wing and it works like a nice little picnic table.

Seriously, when I was checking car insurance rates for when I was living in Ontario (because I really wanted a car), I think the lowest rate I ever saw was around $250 a month or so (and that was for a not fun vehicle)? Here, I would be paying $150 a month (and could possibly get that down to $110 a month) for a WRX STi. Insurance is so much cheaper here it’s not even funny.
