Hey all, well, I was set on white but I ended up with a Yellow P5 instead. Here's the story:
I was gonna be patient and save up a bit cause I still owed money on my 1999 10th Anniversary Miata (which I traded in). It was Friday night and my girl and I were being lazy bums and stayed in. Fell asleep at like 10:30 and then come 3:30 am, I got the case of the munchies. We both decided to head over to the local IHOP. On the way back, I was like, can we just stop by the Subaru and Mazda dealerships to see what they have. Subaru didn't have a white WRX wagon so I went to Mazda to see if they still had the white P5 in stock. Pull up to the dealership and what do I see? A Yellow P5 that was just delivered. I knew I had to have it. I figured it was impossible to get one now but it was there. So, Saturday morning I woke up and went over to the dealership (Brown's Mazda in Fairfax, VA). Anyways, luckily I did my pricing research and finance research cause I got the car's price settled pretty quickly. $16,800 with moonroof, 5sp, floor mats, cargo net. Sucks no ABS...but I got the car for $250 over invoice so I was happy.
Now I'm ready to start buying parts soon as it's broken in. Man, I love the car. Could use a bit more power, but my payments are sooooo much lower now so I'm happy.
Thanks for listenin to me ramble...you'll be seeing me on here more often!
