Love how diverse your collection is.

[@fingersrfw8851]

Awesome. I'm from the UK and have had my completely stock 05 STI in blue and gold for 7 years now. Had all sorts of other cars but the STI is still my favourite. Unabused ones are getting rare beasts now!

[@epicentergarage4952]

Thanks for sharing! You are absolutely correct...getting super hard to find nice ones.

[@lewisfletcher4016]

Both Subaru's look great. It's refreshing to know you choose them over the Lambos for fun. I have a 2005 STI & 98 Type R STI and love driving them!

[@dmpi483]

2 STIs... Crazy!

[@epicentergarage4952]

They all need saved LOL

[@oli4330]

Love the Subaru’s. Always have since being a young kid watching World Rally Championship and obviously Richard burns and Colin McRae race these awesome beasts. I’ll never get rid of my Impreza ❤

[@epicentergarage4952]

You and me both! Fantastic cars

I sometimes buy pairs of things that I like just in different colors. Right now I have a 2013 STi/SE 1 of only 100 produced in the tangerine orange color. Purchased with just over just over 5000 original miles. Original 1 owner California car brought to Chicago and put into storage. Now it's just too nice thinking of possibly letting it go to a new home before summer.

[@epicentergarage4952]

The orange STi/SE is so cool!

[@lowcountryfungi]

this is great, a true enthusiast!!

[@epicentergarage4952]

Thanks!

[@got556]

Right there with you, I've had an 03 WRX, 04 WRX, and 01 RS which I EJ207 swapped. Nothing was more fun than my 04 Blob. I had an sti intercooler and turbo on it, quite a few chassis mods and a six speed swap and it just was endless smiles. Dabbling in BMW's again for a bit with my 04 ZHP sedan, but I'll get another WRX/STI eventually. Mine was also WRB, the only color Subarus should come in...

[@epicentergarage4952]

Very cool!

[@candycouldntbesosweet]

Can’t go wrong with a 05 aspen white sti 🤭

[@ChrisSmith-ri4mb]

G'day Brian! Perfect choice! I'm a big fan from Australia, and we are lucky enough to have a bigger range of JDM cars here. I used to have a 99 WRX Club Spec Evo 3 (Aussie delivered), and sadly i sold it, but my current car popped up and i had to have it. It's an 02 sti (bugeye) that's all original (except cat back exhaust, still have the stock one though) and has 320k on the clock. I bought it from a Subaru mechanic and everything was freshened up and serviced before i got it, and it drives like brand new! It would be super hard to sell it because i know I'll never find another one

[@epicentergarage4952]

You guys do have some of the best cars down there for sure! Don't ever sell that car... you are right...way too hard to find another.

[@KrushGODX]

dream car

[@Crimsonxdecay]

I'm on the verge of buying a 2005 sti. Going to be my first car. Loved the info in the video.

[@epicentergarage4952]

Awesome! You are going to love it!

[@Crimsonxdecay]

@@epicentergarage4952 Thank you, I'm getting it monday or tuesday. Super excited.

[@SALASAN1977]

Awesome Chanel!!! Tks Car Ninja!!! Greetings from Brazil!!!

[@PowerlineRider]

I loved my 05 Legacy GT, 5 speed wagon, pretty rare car and it was modified also, never driven a stock one but subarus now have a place in my heart. Definitely want to pick up an older STI when i start my own collection! Great video Brian!

[@epicentergarage4952]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing and have a Great Christmas!

[@ronnieboucherthecrystalcraftsm]

get your wife driving the stock STI one - for a week = then ask her ! = thank you really great and very impressed with your choice !

[@theredlinefactory1301]

Beautiful STI I hope u enjoy them for a very long time and that SPT strut bar is a dealer option accessory SPT is like the TRD for Toyota SPT is for Subaru

[@timbonnell279]

Enjoy your videos and passion for the hobby!

[@epicentergarage4952]

Thanks 👍

[@jeremyyarbrough4714]

Hey Brian, love the content. I’ve been binging the videos from the first one. I remember you from when Tyler said you was his dad hahaha. Great job with the videos.

[@epicentergarage4952]

Thanks! So many still think I am his Dad! I have been stopped and asked what he was like as a boy :)

[@final3119]

SPT strut bar is a factory part. I’d count that as stock.

[@epicentergarage4952]

I did not know that....Thanks!

[@bcprm]

I was considering selling my 2018 STi for 04 05. These older models just don’t get old. So timeless. Subaru at its best. Should I ?

[@epicentergarage4952]

Good question! 2018's are so nice but there is just some about the 04-05 cars.

[@yamahaSHO]

You got more driveline loss than that! The STi is making more lik 450-460 at the crank based on the dyno I dug up. :)

[@epicentergarage4952]

You should certainly know on this car! :)

[@ronnieboucherthecrystalcraftsm]

2006 s204 is my dream car - in white with gold mags ! japan partner - import direct from them ! rb 32 - sti`s - supras - have a look. so i spent heaps on my 2001 sf5 forester gt turbo = i am an IDIOT also $45k total now - like a go cart ej207 all sti swapped out - looks stock with mags

[@jamesdimarzio3181]

Knowing we have a problem is the first step 😂😂😂

[@damienf01]

Love subarus! I heard about how much you love them from a friend in KC, same name just spelled bryan! The Strut bar on the mostly stock one, looks like SPT(Subaru Performance Tecnica) so it may be a factory accessory!

[@epicentergarage4952]

I think you are correct....it is factory!

[@damienf01]

@@epicentergarage4952 If so, that’s pretty cool to see!

I got a 07 Impreza that is damage can a 04 chase leg works on it ?

[@bobwillburn8657]

If that stock was has low milage I'm curious if you'd ever part with it if the price was right

[@epicentergarage4952]

I might but it would be really hard.

[@bobwillburn8657]

@@epicentergarage4952 is there another way to contact you by chance to possibly chat some more

[@bobwillburn8657]

Curious, how many miles is on the stock one?

[@CaptainRexCT-7567]

27 pounds of boost and only 350hp????

[@epicentergarage4952]

Actually it put out 367hp at the wheels. I bet it is around 420hp at the crank

[@CaptainRexCT-7567]

Oh dang
