Err, welcome Optimus! Unusual name your parents have bestowed upon you. :D Hope to see you at a meet since you're a Syndey-sider.

Heh-heh. Another Lib with a Transformer sticker. You should speak with swingn. :P

Wow, you went from a MY07 Spec B to a MY08 STi. What made you swap so soon since the MY07 was barely a year old!

welcome optimus. Hawt ride. Those silver wheels set off the black car very nicely IMHO. Arith, isn't it obvious why he traded up? He got sick of the boat anchor auto and got the only true enthusiast's transmission. Go the manual! :twisted: :lol:

Haha. Go Team Boat Anchor! :D

So while I head up Team BA, you can head up Team Plain Vanilla for your love of stock. :D

I'm sure blacknwhite would love this one. :derisive: Pete, you should take your car here! I'm sure it's a step up from the dealership carwash. Not only are they using recycled mitts (hopefully not kept in the same blue bucket as the tire brush) but the guy's got his hands rested on the rear pillar. :happy:

The pics you updated of your ex ride shows a pre-facelift GT (non Tuned by STi)
Does that mean you've owned 3 liberty GTs??

Heh-heh. I was going to mention that as well. The Lib picture is a MY04-MY06 GT. Plus didn't the Spec B for the GT not get released until MY07?

gumbyy,
nope just 2,
I'm not too familiar with the exact model names, but yep its the one in the pic.

Arith,
i guess its a MY06GT then - my apologies for the confusion.
a manual gearbox max a hell of a difference though, esp on take off.

EskimO, XRC15T
thnx
