Look what I saw last week, looks amazing in person, much better than what I got to see at the Chicago auto show.

congrats, bro...I'd trade in my 2010 TL SH-AWD for a 2012 STI (there's still 5 for sale in my area) in a second if the TL was paid for...

Doing paperwork. Got a ridiculous deal IMO. $3500 under nada/kbb retail. I could trade it back in after buying it, lol.

Wow! What was the strategy? What was the sticker price on it and how much did you end up paying? Maybe I want it too.

That is a great price, I guess that is because it is a 2011, but its new. You might notice a bit less of the luxury feel, but you will love the rumble and pull of that little bitch.
