So last night my brother calls me, hes like "Logan come over and look at the winter beater I bought"

Im thinking okay kid you drive a 1991 Golf CL, you dont need a winter beater but what ever floats your boat....so I drive over to my dads place, see the golf parked out front and my brother takes me to the garage opens the door and WHAM! 2004 SUBARU WRX STi Blue with the gold rims.

So my 18 year old brother bought a car I dream of owning [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

Logan Lundy 11-14-2003 09:31 AM

He lives at home with my dad, works concrete from May - mid. November and then from December - May he works on the riggs. Kid makes an easy 60g per year, hes 18, no g/f and my dad charges him $200/month rent so hes got some money to blow [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]

PICS PICS PICS take some PPIICCSS

Brandon 11-14-2003 08:43 PM

LOL.

That's enough to piss off the good humor man.

It reminds me of the 26 year old guy here in Oshawa that paid cash for his $70,000 Viper. Then puts like $5000 worth of system in it.

Lucky SOB with his 450HP car and $10,000 chrome headers.

quadzed 11-14-2003 08:47 PM

Frig, I'm jealous of kids that go out and buy new Cavaliers! But a WRX STi, damn....

If he's looking for a winter beater maybe he'll trade me the WRX for my beatazz Protege...lol :D

SwantonRX-7 11-14-2003 09:21 PM

Looks like it doesn't even have a stereo in it, the Subaru website says "Pre-wired for audio system" unless I am wrong. It happened once before..... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

another thing he is going to be killed on insurance. Top ten most expensive cars to insure

mudmojo 11-15-2003 02:26 PM

Lucky kid! Did you score a ride?

Over the past decade or so, "special" editions/homologation specials of the STi that have been sold globally have come without radios, A/C, power windows, etc. to reduce weight because the rally teams pull them out as soon as they bring them back to the shop for prepping anyway.

Why a cheeseburger/fries NADM production STi model doesn't have a radio is a mystery to me though.

Thunderous Contender 11-15-2003 03:10 PM

You don't need a stereo when you can listen to a turbo boxer engine whining through it's RPM band.

ShYYLO 11-15-2003 04:52 PM

Well how much was it ?


SHY

bing 11-16-2003 05:54 PM

i'd be surprised if he pays any less than $8000 a year for insurance on that thing...

and i mean for the 6 months he drives it.

18 years old... holy frig...

i hear working on the rigs is REALLY DANGEROUS though.

Mini Steve 11-16-2003 06:51 PM

Are you in with him has he put you on his will? If not I'm avalable for the will thing at least! [img]graemlins/@bow.gif[/img]

Hmm, I gues I'll be selling my BMW M-5 and my X-5.

I just can't imagine why a BMW would be lower on the list than the Integra. [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

SwantonRX-7 11-16-2003 10:57 PM

Well I see it this way. The old honda's are easy to steal and can be striped like nothing....oh yeah and for some reason everyone drive the damn things.

maltesechicken 11-17-2003 08:23 AM

Wow! I bet he's looking foward to "Environment Canada Winter Storm Warning" scrolling across the bottom of the T.V.

</font>[/QUOTE]"Insurance companies rate cars based on the claims history of that vehicle. They look at things like accident frequency, repair costs, theft, vandalism and safety ratings for each make and model. The more money insurance companies have to pay in claims for a particular car, the more expensive that car is to insure."

So because Integra's production rate compared to say an M5, X5 is about 100,000:1, the Integra will likely have claim rates 100,000:1 compared to the BMW.
The actual price of the car makes up only a small difference in the insurance rate. It is the history and number of claims on the vehicle that sets the higher rate.

Yea i have a wrx- non sti!

Amazing car, i still love driving it.
But a nightmare for a system.

Cant get anything decent in the door. too shallow.

Funny thing about subaru owners, they crave the winter. Personally i cant wait till our first storm.
