Hey guys,

Just took delivery of my graphite grey MY10 LGT wagon, with expanded metal grille (cut my self putting it in already), rear spoiler and tints. CVT (supposed to be a comfy car!). Build date 4/2010.

Mods planned:
* CAI/filter in the next few weeks
* STI lip, STI pink springs and some wheels in a month or two
* Exhaust and tune after the first service

Then i'll be truly happy lol. FYI the maps have been updated to 2009 UBD in my version.. so the disc must be out there guys!

Here's a pic I snapped this arvo:

Good stuff - welcome! Excellent choice of colour and grill :)

Incidentally the MY10 is not CVT, it's a regular auto. My fleet company had it down incorrectly as CVT as well :)

Great pic and excellent location - I know exactly where that is as I have been scouting there for a spot to take pics as well :)

congrats on the new car~

whats the deal with so many graphite grey MY10s, and with so many sports grills ;)

Makes me feel I have missed out on something (mine is black with standard grill) :D

That is the first good MY10 I have seen :) The grill makes a HUGE difference. IMHO the thing I don't like about the MY10 is how tall the front looks, namely due to the headlights tapering upwards so steeply. Eyelids should drop the top of the headlights down lower and wider to give a more aggressive stance.

Nice colour on the plates too!

Not many people in here running about with OEM wheels though so I see little reason to bang on about how good or bad the stockers look

Awesome car mate! I can confidently say that I love the look of the MY10 wagon when it has the mesh grill like yours. Some nice STI Enkei wheels would make it look even better. I think I know what I'll be upgrading to when the time comes 8)
