  • I have no idea what you’re arguing over, all I said was that a crosstrek isn’t the car that comes to mind when you say “putting rally parts on my subaru” to anyone who actually knows what rally is. It’s like saying “I got drag slicks for my Pontiac” and having someone ask “aw nice, is it an aztek?” The WRX is literally named after and intended to be a consumer version of a WRC car, a crosstrek is meant for someone that thinks they might drive into a field to go to a concert once in the whole 6 years of owning it.


  • No, there are plenty of other rally vehicles, but a crosstrek isn’t one. You also realize that WRX stands for World Rally eXperimental. I also am not sure you know what rally racing is, I feel like you just think it’s a fun word for “off-road” but there are also tarmac stages where you don’t need ground clearance. The WRX is literally a road version of a rally car, the crosstrek is a CUV with ground clearance, that is literally just the point I was making. Either way rally doesn’t mean off-road, it is a specific type of racing that sometimes goes off-road, but is actually on roads the vast majority of the time, just not always paved.









  • I was a bit late on this booster because they were late getting it on base and then shifted all supplies overseas which made me go to local pharmacies which is a pain for active duty but I finally managed. I feel like I was higher risk at the beginning than now though, either way what I’ve been doing seems to have worked. Meanwhile my biochemist wife who works in pharma development is only a bit butthurt that she caught it before me despite absolutely being the subject matter expert and only going interacting with peers at work during the height of it.

    Not a blunder, just something very specific. I’ve seen mk3 RSs repainted to the mk2 green. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if someone did a mk2 in mk3 blue. It’s an enthusiast only detail that wouldn’t normally happen by accident so I’m wondering what the reference for the drawing was from.


  • Edit It has been pointed out that I latched onto the color and shape of the grill that is generally on the sportier Ford Foci and forgot about the 2012 base model. I hate when people delete comments and leave a graveyard of broken context so I’m leaving it up but I was wrong on what the blue car is.

    Interesting, the blue car is clearly a ‘09 Ford Focus RS but it appears to be in Nitrous Blue, a color only available on the ‘16-‘18 Focus RS. Seems very specific.
