I purchased my 05' Oct. 2010 with 50,000 on the odo. Daily drive it 60 miles a day 5 days a week. I came from driving 4x4 trucks so AWD was mandatory so it was an STI or the Evo. STI had too small of a back seat, got the Evo and never looked back. Will never drive a truck again. Found a set of Dunlop Wintersport tires on CL dirt cheap for the snow and the car is unbelievable ! I now have 68,000 on the clock..

If it's not in the garage getting work done, it's a total garage queen. I walk everywhere and take the public transit a lot, but I'm considering buying a DD soon (04 sti maybe :P).

I'll be joining the DD evo crew in the next few weeks, just looking for the right car. Had a b6 s4, that was my daily, it was a great car but I definitely missed having a turbo car.
