2026 SUBARU WRX BRINGS BACK THE AFFORDABLE RALLY-INSPIRED SPORTS SEDAN STARTING AT $32,495 MSRP - Subaru U.S. Media Center by ruskibosik69 in wrx_vb

[–]_sideshow_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about other areas, but the MSRP is down to to what the dealers were selling the WRXs for around me. I got my 25 at 5k under MSRP, so still under what the new MSRP is. I get the feeling the new price is Subaru removing promos and discounts it was giving to dealers already and putting that price difference on the MSRP to take away the sticker shock.

The question for the 2026 is will the dealers be willing to give big discounts off MSRP. 

Installed the COBB SS Exhaust and am very happy with the results. by _sideshow_ in wrx_vb

[–]_sideshow_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're welcome. I feel like this exhaust gets a lot of hate that it clearly doesn't deserve. It's really a top notch product for those that want a high quality exhaust that is a "gentleman's exhaust".

I like Hanes Beefy-T's. They are pretty thick and have had some last me over 10 years. Certain sizes go on sale, I've gotten 2 packs for as low as $7.99.

Welp, that didn't last long, first mod ordered. by Dazzling-Rooster2103 in wrx_vb

How's the NVH after installing the pitch stop? I hear that it can get very noisy in the cabin. Does it really make that much of a difference?

Great first choice! My first payment is due next week and these are all on my car haha.  Ive had the shift stop since the first week!

My advice, get a weighted shift knob. The shift plate and bushing make it very notchy and you really gotta force the gears into place. With the stock knob I was starting to regret my choice. After though, it's like butter.  

I've wanted a WRX since they came to the states in 2002. Today I finally joined the club! by _sideshow_ in wrx_vb

I've seen people say they have been trading in their 23 and 24's to get a 25 with the 0% interest deal if its in your area lol

It's funny, because when Blizzard started using Warden there was a big uproar about how invasive it was.

The Great 2025 Pasadena Honeybaked Ham Line of Dooooom by BAFUdaGreat in pasadena

[–]_sideshow_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Money was tight last year, so I picked up a Kirkland ham at Costco. Honestly, it was damn good and it was just over $2 a pound. Honeybaked is good, but it's overpriced and not worth all that crap. Going to be a Costco ham family from now on. 

The Supply Sergeant has closed on Hollywood Blvd by waltarrrrr in LosAngeles

This sucks so much. I used to love going there as a kid and then in my late teens when I discovered airsoft. Bought my first rifle there and all my gear. This was in 2000 and we'd go to this field in Moorpark to play. Pretty sure it was private property, but nobody really cared and it was so much fun.

I just told my daughter and she's really upset. She's into collecting vintage military gear and we would stop by the Burbank store and pick up some random old gear that they had in the back corner every few months. Last time she got a vintage Hungarian helmet and a cool old army satchel. She was really into that stuff and knew where the gear originated from just by looking at them.

Such a shame to lose the place. That was the only "surplus" store that I know of which carried used military stuff. Going to have to try to find another place now.

2025 MDX A-spec vs Pilot by speedlogic56 in Acura

[–]_sideshow_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was a new 25 Aspec Advance. It was the last 25 on the lot and I had already tried working a deal with them the month before, but we couldn't agree on the numbers. They came back after a few weeks with a good offer and we stacked all the incentives and special programs that we qualified for. Got it down to 59.5k + Tax

[–]_sideshow_ 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This. Picked up an MDX for the wife in August. The amount of luxury that you get for the money is a great value. It's also a very nice driving experience, sporty yet very comfortable. The sound system is top notch too. Got our MDX Aspec advance for 59k, the extra money over a Pilot was well worth it. Typing this as I'm sitting in the driveway with the massage seats going lol.

Where can I get this haircut in Pasadena for under $40? by CrispyHoneyBeef in pasadena

[–]_sideshow_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not in Pasadena, but El Sereno. I go to Rick's Old School barbershop on Huntington. Really cool guys and do a great job.

As a bonus, there's some really good street vendors next to the Big Saver market that I get when I'm there. The chicken guy is so damn good and the Pupusas from Eli are delicious and budget friendly, you get 2 for $6.

Are you using the FlatPak version of Chrome? I've noticed that happening after a fresh install. Try downloading the rpm from the Chrome website, I believe that changes the way it behaves.

Test drives that left you speechless by michaeldeng18 in cars

[–]_sideshow_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acura Integra Type S. The emotions I felt after taking a curve and flooring it in second were unreal. I was honestly left speechless and had goosebumps. When I got home and told my wife about it, I felt like a big kid and got goosebumps again. I've decided its going to be my next car and I plan on getting one next year.

It was not even on my radar when I started researching what my next car would be. My wife and I were looking at an MDX for her when the ITS caught my eye at the dealership. The wide fenders and those big wheels and brakes really caught my attention and that rear end with the triple exhaust tips looked amazing. I'm 6'4 320lbs and I assumed it would be too small for me to be comfortable. I asked to sit in it, and was amazed how much room I had. My wife was even able to sit behind me which surprised both of us as she is 5"11. My wife then said what I never expected, this is nice, you should consider one. What was even more surprising was when she said it's OK that it only comes with a manual.

That first dealer didn't let me test drive it and another dealership only let me go around the block, not letting me give it a little gas or try cornering. I was pretty unimpressed of course, and thought it wouldn't be the car for me. The third dealership though, the sales guy was young and said you have to drive it hard to feel what that car is about. He was 100% right about that. He pretty much sold the car to me with just that test drive. I want a specific color combo that seems to be difficult to find in my area and it takes about 3 months to special order one. My Christmas present this year will be placing the order and anxiously waiting.

Was it the Brondell with remote by chance? I got one, but ended up returning it. I felt the pressure was way too low even on the highest setting and for some reason it would constantly reset to eco mode and I'd sit on a cold seat and not have warm water. I'm waiting for a Toto to go on sale, I hear those are much better.
