New Guy, Hi

Post by anthony »

Hi, new guy from upstate NY. Just purchased a 2004 Turbo 5spd on ebay, currently arranging shipping. Hope to have it here sometime around the beginning of next week.

I'm new to the Baja, but not new to Subaru. I've had 2 WRX's and a 2.5TS wagon. As a kid in the 80's I was a huge fan of the Brat, so of course I've been wanting a Baja since they were released... finally made the plunge.

Looking forward to taking delivery and enjoying my new (used) ride! [smilie=666.gif]

Below are pics of both of my old 2002 WRX's, and my current vehicle - a 2004 Nissan Xterra

Greetings another upstate NY Baja owner: Nice beast!

I tried forever to find a 5 spd turbo in the northeast with low mileage last Fall. Finally settled for my first automatic in 28 years. :(

Looks gorgeous. How many miles? Hope you love it!

Thanks! Yeah I looked for quite a while! It's got 80,200 on the odometer.

It's nice to be back in a turbo'd subie :)
