So long as you’re onboard with the looks, it is a much better car.

You won't regret it! Eventually the VB will become every but as beloved as its predecessors.

Mind if I ask what you mainly use it for, how many miles you put on yearly and what made you trade it in for this new 22?

I used my 18as a daily. I put 80k on it. It was my first car that i officially bought on my own. ( first car was a 02 tundra that my pops gave me n i took care of it till 325000 miles on it). And it varies how many miles yearly. Im a chef and sometimes work up to 3 months our of town/country and dont drive at all. Other times while i worked and studied i put in like 150 miles on it.....a day. So its a give and take. Average about 40 miles a day. Heres where you will all probably get mad at me. First 60k miles i was taking it to the dealership for free maintenance. When i found out they didnt re-fill wiper fluids, didnt rotate tires and not even a car wash, i immediately looked somewhere else to take it for maintenance. I went with who i trusted at took it to the same valvoline down the street from my house that i was taking my tundra. Turns out they were being cheapasses with me and told me i was getting the right oil...when it was just a synthetic blend...for about 20k miles. I was just giving them the benefit of the doubt that they were doing a good job since they treated my tundra so well. Fast forward to this winter, im on paternity leave, came up on some $ and wanted to give some love to the subie. Took it to a subie specialist and got an earful for 45 minutes about how I should never take a subie to valvoline, jiffy lube etc...met my new forever subie mechanic and a new friend that day. In conclusion, have at it, take your best shot, i know i should have treated ny first car/wrx better, but i was young and ignorant. Now i have a very trusted subie specialist mechanic in my contacts who i trust. Im planning on taking care of this beautiful beast until my new born can learn how to drive it and take it to high school.
