Magicmike's 2015 STI Journal

[magicmike]

Hello all, my name is Mike and welcome to my Member Journal. I'm a slow mover in terms of getting mods done to the car, so pace won't be high. I thoroughly enjoy photography (I tend to pay photographers to do shoots) so this will be a very photo heavy thread.

I miss my "hot hatch." Not as fast as the STI nor with as much grip, but way more responsive.

My GTI is a lot of fun to drive as well, lot more refined in areas where the Subaru is raw. They are just two different types of drivers car, both fun in their own ways. I love the car lineup I have now.
