==================================================== Still a new car for $10,000 and 0%, I mean I get it why she didn't want it, I wouldn,t want one, lol. Still there is some good value there at that price, and the price makes them look much nicer.

Edit: I don't have the unit or model # handy. ============================================ It looks like the one listed here on the Cobb web site http://www.cobbtuning.com/products/?id=3264 Edit: I don't have the unit or model # The exhaust seems to be 3" stainless from the engine back, looks like this one from the Cobb web site. http://www.cobbtuning.com/products/?id=2308

============================================== Thanks for the advice, I will be sure to let her know. Hopefully she already knows this.

One more thing about Fords and then I will never bring it up again. Me and the Wife have bought a few Fords and the local Ford dealership was going to sell My girl a brand new 08 Focus' with most power options for $10,000 and 0% financing and Baby said no, She didn't like it, and next day came home with 07 WRX for 18,000 and 4.45%. Doesn't speak well for Ford.

I did not mean to start a Ford vs Subaru debate, although it is always kinda fun. I will say I have nothing but respect for Japanese cars, I don't know why I keep getting Fords other then the 0% financing and they do make a good cargo van. Anyway, Looks like the 07 WRX that Baby just bought, has a Cobb cat back tuned exhaust with this ECU programing diagnostic thingy. I looked it up and this combo sounds like it has turned Her car into an poor mans STI, and She might be rolling with 260+ HP. Should I advise her to remove the damn thing and sell it, will it void the factory warranty and shorten the life of the vehicle? Can She still use regular gas? She likes the exhaust and so do I, so She wants to keep it. Does the ECU thing come in handy?

==================================================== 260,000 miles:clap: thats great to hear. This car of hers sounds real throaty, The Tail pipe says COBB on it, is this a stock exhaust pipe?

===================================================== Maybe she will let me drive it to the game this December and we can hook up. Jets 27 Seahawks 13. Or maybe I will show up in one of my Fords and you can help me fix it.

======================================================= Her last car was a BMW 318ti, 4 cylinder 5 speed. It wasn't real powerful but it handle very well, hopefully the transition to the WRX will be easy for her. I hate those tranversers also. Them and there whole equal rites thing.

=======================================

======================================================= It is not an STI. Don't hate on the Fords, they are what they are. Fords= ho hum looks and performance at a ho hum price and 0% financing. Sure you can be my Girls friend, but you can't have her number. I will try and post a pic of her with her new Suby.

======================================================== No I do not work on my own cars anymore. Good to know you feel they are safe cars.

========================================================== Thanks for the link Evo.

Thank you for all the replies, I have always heard great things about Subaru's, just could never afford one, and thats why I drive the Fords, plus 3 of my Fords have been cargo vans. Glad to hear all the replies have been positive. WRX=Safe, reliable, fun to drive. And the thing looks pretty cool also with the hood scoop and all, just wish she would of got the 2 door version. I look forward to reading USMB and learning more about Subaru's and what folks are doing to pimp there rides.

She bought an 07 wrx 4 door turbo with 12,000 miles for $17,999. She is happy and it's her money, and I am fine. Here is the thing, I am a Ford guy, why I don't know, but my last 6 cars have been Fords. I am a car guy, and I would love for some one to tell me the good points about owning a WRX. Are they fast? What are there best features? Are they sought after? Who drives them? Is this a good car for a 21 year old girl? Seems like Baby bought a rally car.
