xxscaxx Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 well, tonight i took the sol out for its last drive. it was kinda sad i must say. Even though im getting an STi i sure as hell will miss the del sol. i never thought i would have gotten as far with it as i have. i wish i could keep it and still build it for a project but its time to move on. it should be out by tomorrow or tuesday. my aspen white/gold STi is coming in tomorrow or tuesday, so i should have it by thursday or friday. I'll definitly be hanging around the forums still ( dont you feel lucky), but i just want to take a moment to thank all the people who have helped me become more informative about my car and about hondas in general. honda will always be in my heart hahaha.

blackdelsol Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 you reallly like white cars, don't you. I would have gotten a black one. So you finally sold your del sol. good for you. post pics of your STi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxscaxx Posted June 15, 2005 Author Share Posted June 15, 2005 haha yeah i like white. but i personally saw all the colors available for the STi and the white looked the best. crystal grey metallic was my second choice. yeah, i finally sold it. tomorrow it leaves. oh dont you worry, pics will be posted as soon as i get it haha.

91H22Accord Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 how much did you get rid of the sol for>? was it a trade in?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddySol Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Been lookin' at an STi myself... ...not sure what to replace the Sol with cause I know there'll be nothin' like poppin' off the top and takin' a cruise around the city, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grayghost_03 Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 oh dont you worry, pics will be posted as soon as i get it haha. Yeah definately post plenty of pics. I don't know about the grey and gold one so I think you got the better color choice. Here in Cleveland I have only seen two STi's and both are blue. And I haven't checked out Subaru's site lately to see the other color options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackdelsol Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I want to be the first person w/ a convertible STi. Subaru doesn't like convertibles because they don't work for rallying. They need to expand their horizons more. Anyway, looking foreward to seeing pics and speeding tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxscaxx Posted June 16, 2005 Author Share Posted June 16, 2005 yeah, the white looks amazing. it left today, it was sad. yeah, i will miss poppin off that top, but i wont mind when im drivin around that STi. i sold it for 5,500.00 and im selling my rims separate and my front bumper so it brings me to 6,200.00. dealer trade in, they wanted like friggin 1,000 bucks. trade in is not worth it.

CleanGSR Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Very nice. I know its an STI and already has tons of power, but do you have plans to do anything to the STI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxscaxx Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 oh yeah definitly, i just have to be careful because warranty and crap, so i wont be doing much until that goes away. but ill most likely have Turboback exhaust and EM by the end of the summer. 300 awhp is easily achieved with just that . after a while ill eventually upgrade the turbo but thats not going to be for a while...probably going to get some cusco sways and some JDM Pinks springs with Group N top mounts. and some defi gauges. its basically some engine mods and suspension that will be first. everything is going to be a slow moving process though, b/c i have to pay off the car and pay for insurance.

CleanGSR Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Yeah, I bet insurance is a killer on that car. Just an FYI..... I know that there are a couple of companies that work in conjunction with Subaru for aftermarket parts. These kits will help not void your warranty but still let you achieve up to 500whp depending on which kit. Do some research and find out what the companies are (of course, I know you'll do your research if anyone would.) This is all assuming you're not going to build your own kit again.

xxscaxx Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 it all really depends on if your dealer is mod friendly or not, and if they are, they usually will install it for you so then it wont void out the warranty. insurance is going under my dads name, so ill be paying like 600 bucks every six months for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
