She decided on a 2016 Subaru WRX STI HyperBlue Speical edition. She intends to immediately de-wing it and then DD it. We put down a deposit today! I’m glad she’s not a Corolla kind of person.
It’s going to look cool next to my Orange 2013 WRX

“immediately de-wing”
No

Immediately de-wing YES!!! She doesn't need a wing running around town and it around probably attract too much attention from the popo.

She will be the holder of all of Aaron Brown’s envy.

Can I have the wing?
I don’t know how I feel about dewinging a special edition car but her decision.

She’s planning on getting an unpainted trunk sans wing and getting it painted the right color and we’ll just keep it in the garage for when we want to sell it. (or something, either way, we won’t throw it away). She likes the performance but doesn’t want a park bench on the back of the car. STi’s come from the factory wingless now, and I happen to think they look pretty good.

I do too. She’s been a jalop forever! She refuses to drive an automatic, had the first gen RX-7, and took me from in the hospital after being born in a 300ZX TT

Either way, mad jelly, been in love with the Hyper.Blue since it was announced.

You need to do an interview with your mom and post it. She seems brilliant and we could all use such automotive light heading in to the dismal tunnel that they call “adulthood.”

Sorry for the autocorrect.

Nope, we’ve been looking at cars for a few months and she decided to go with this. We’ve looked at a lot of stuff and we think this will be a good fit

Why not just order it wingless? Btw, I'm as jealous as it gets.

She says that she’s not quite there yet. Basically, she doesn’t have many fucks to give.

They only come one way (with the wing) and she liked the color and the STi performance so it’s the only way. I like the de-winged look

Same here!

I wish this was announced like last summer, that way my grandfather could’ve gotten a performance car that could haul around the younger kids so he didn’t have to get an Equinox...

Your mom is super awesome. Jalop moms are the best. But don’t forget the original source of Swedish Racing Green:

Speaking of justvolvoguythings , you know you’re a Volvo guy when a tastefully tuned 350Z passes you and you don’t even take a second glance but then a stock 740 turbo wagon passes and you crane your neck to see everything about it...that’s what happened to me today :)

I got so excited when a cute girl parked her older 2.5T AWD S60 right next to mine in the parking lot the other day. And I nearly screamed like a little girl when I saw some kid drove a 940 wagon into the parking lot (it was rough but still...wow)
Oh and I really should save all my reactions my dashcam picks up when I see something like a 240 or C30. I scream and go crazy to no one in particular :)
There’s an incredible fully restored 244 wagon going around my town lately. I’ve tried to talk to the owner, but its hard to talk at 55 MPH :(

Haha, we should start a series of “justvolvoguymemes” for whenever we spot something of that sort...at my school there’s a guy with a ‘12 S60 T5 who I’m jealous of (stupid spoiled people who don’t recognize what they’ve got) and a really beat first gen V70 that just keeps on ticking...also, there used to be a girl in a slightly battered S60R but she’s since graduated...

I have the highest amount of respect for your mom right now. I like her style.
![]() 09/02/2015 at 23:13 |

Damn. I would’ve married S60R chick!!!
And its funny because other than those two, Volvo love is nonexistent in my school. And hell, the 940 hasn’t been back since that one day.
We used to have a ton of older S40s when I started, but they’ve long gone. Then it was a few S70s. Now they are gone. Kinda sad to see my lot full of leased CUVs, bro trucks, and V6 pony cars...

Needs more exhaust pipes.

Eh, the girl was just using it as her DD, not sure if she knew what she had, what with all the bumper stickers adorning the rear...
Actually my school has an odd cross section of vehicles: tons of beaters, some more respectable 90s-2000s Japanese cars, a few older Euro vehicles (mostly in good shape), many mommy-mobiles, some nice newer cars, and a few car-guy cars (like one Eastern European guy who has a really tastefully modded red M3—simply stunning...)
Kind of like this, also with a Euro front plate as well as a Nurburgring sticker in the rear...

We can order them wingless in the U.S. now. Ask the dealer.
![]() 09/03/2015 at 02:30 |

I was told all HyperBlue came in the exact same configuration. When the dealer gives us more information, I’ll ask about it.
![]() 09/03/2015 at 08:01 |

Is the new color a tri-coat? If so, be aware you most likely won’t get it to look the same as the rest of the paint.

STi’s come from the factory wingless now
Nah, the STi still comes with the wing. On the Limited trim, the “low profile” spoiler is a $0 option, but it still comes with the big wing as standard.
I’m not sure how the “Hyper Blue” model will be configured. Maybe there will be a low-profile option, maybe not (even if it’s a Limited model, which I expect it is). I’d guess it will probably come with the wing either way.
For reference, here’s the factory low-profile spoiler:

That’s not wingless fyi, that has the WRX wing which is a factory option for ‘16s.
