Glad you held tight to find your car. Black STI's look awesome.

yea that was a biggest patience ever, a month before buying Liberty I test drove the MY11 STI Spec.R the ultimate and real weapon, but I had to drop my plans because the trade in value Subaru dealership offered for my Rexy was too low, moreover the lack of luxury added features and crappy cheap plastic interior disappointed me. But if I get a chance I will still buy a Spec.R LOL

Nice! Will have to keep an eye out for you around Canberra. My 2008 looks very similar black on black, but rarely makes it out of the garage.

I've seen your car around a few times (not a lot though). It's very nice.

Unless you are doing a car that wins competitions or something the only thing you can ever really gain is your own enjoyment of the car.
If you are happy with how your car looks and performs from the factory then you will gain nothing, but if you get extra enjoyment/happiness from you car after modding, that is the gain. It's just depends on the individual as to how much extra enjoyment you get from the mods and how much that is worth in dollars (or if you just have heaps of spare cash and it doesn't matter

)
