      That's really nice. 🙂

      Although i can't really tell difference between the A45 AMG. my mate had one of those A45 before he went C63s and now M4 and i have to say, besides it being branded as a compact suv and sitting a little higher, it's essentially a A45 no? assuming all A; CLA, A and GLA are built on the same platform with same 300kw 4 pot

        They’re not available in Canada, but from what I understand they’re different; essentially sharing platform underpinnings.

        But, in the end I don’t really care  😉

        It’s the perfect car for the mountains and city streets of British Columbia.

          Looks like a great fun @QuantumMechanic!  My neighbor has a similar GLA45 and I've always wanted to take it for a spin.

                    Great clip and IMO the ‘07 STIs were beautiful and one of the best gens to drive. I had an 08 WRX and Suburu really dropped the ball on them. It just wasnt the same car as the year prior. They gave it 30? more HP in 09 to make up for their mistake.

                    Those black wheels are super slick and make your STI pop. However, I hope you have a whole lot of tire black because that rubber will look dingy quick! I never noticed how ugly my tires were until I owned a black car with two tone wheels.

                        I can imagine 🤤 Let’s hear that exhaust note when you have a minute. Nothing sounds like a Subie!

                        I cant wait for Borla to come out with the Mk7.5 exhaust for my GTI. I may even do the 4” slanted tips.

                                          Any of you have any opinions on the Honda Accord sport? I'm thinking this might be my next car purchase, but i'm trying to decide if I should wait til 2019 or the tail end of December 2018 when dealerships are trying to offload inventory. I'm leaning towards a 2015 but a 2016 might be on the table if the price is right. I've seen plenty around with low sub 40K mileage. I have to admit, i'm not really a sports car kinda guy but I kinda prefer this version over the standard version. The spoiler, twin exhaust and the 18" rims give it a nice touch too.

                                            I'm probably not the best person to weigh in on the subject, since I view cars in much the same way I view microwave ovens- they're a necessity of modern life, but I just don't care about them.  That said, I own a 15 LX, and it suits my needs just fine.  It's hard to go wrong with an Accord from a practical standpoint.  They're utterly reliable, hold their value well, and Honda has steadily refined then so that they've been one of the best cars in their highly competitive class for years.  Our long term mechanic back in Houston told us that he bought his wife an Accord because he didn't want to work on cars in his off time, and he knew with an Accord he wouldn't have to.

                                            I don't know how much the Sport model adds to the base price, but I agree that it does look a bit less generic.  If you like it, and the price is appropriate, go ahead and get it.  With basic preventive maintenance, you should easily get 200k miles out of it, and 300k isn't unrealistic.
