Traded my 07 STI for an 08 STI
Well I did something that probably some of the hardcore guys will disapprove of. I know I just bought my 07 STI just a few months ago, but I was never totally happy with it. I guess alot of that had to do w/ it not being blue, and second I bought it used(nobody takes care of their shit like me). I thought for sure I would of been happy with it since I always wanted an STI, and when I saw pics of the 08 I didn't like the hatchback look. Well then of course I finally saw an 08 STI on the street and was very impressed with the car. To make the deal even sweeter I got $7,000 off list and 0% financing.
Now if you are wondering if I like the car....I f*cking love it! The fit and finish is a major step from my 07 and yes it may be a little soft here and there compared to the STI's of the past. These are some things that some mods will take car of.
Well here are som picks of my new subie!

08STI mods
Congratulations! My silver 08STI is my first Subie and I love it. AEM cold air intake, Perrin header and complete catted exhaust + Scott Seigel tune = 376whp and 398ftlbswt! Next will be suspension mods. I'm leaning toward Whiteline swaybars, braces and supports, with coilovers (Tein?) to come later. Let me know what you do with yours and how it works out.

Congrats. I only had my 07' for like 6 months before getting the 08'
The 08' rocked and was one of my favorite subaru ever. First mod has to be Coil-Overs!!!! I was lucky enough to catch a major deal and had mine on at like 400 miles. They made the car so tight in turns.
After that I did Intake and exhaust (I did Magnaflow Cat Back). Car was great!!!
What are the specs on your 07' I may go up and look at it.
