    Going to pick it up tommorow

    Well I just got an '03 WRX. 30,000 miles on it, cost me 18,000. Get to pick it up at 12:00 tommorow....I feel like its christmas eve right about now...

    Anything I need to know being a first time 'sports car' owner? (I've been driving a '95 4runner for the past 4 years....the wrx is a god send compared to that slow piece of crap).
    The first thing I was planning on doing is getting some tent because it is rediculious the ammount of privacy I have right now.
    But besides that, not too sure.

    Did I make a good buy? Any defects that I need to know about now?
    Well I guess thats it for now

    It's not like it works fine then blows up for everyone at 2K miles. Some have problems some don't, don't shift like a gorilla.
