Sold my WRX... now what
So the Wrx is finally gone 
managed to get 9500 out of it with 75k miles, which seemed pretty good to me considering how bad the market is. It does suck driving to work now though as the car im driving (legacy) tops out at about 60 going up the the freeway to work, where as my wrx was happy doing 80 and then some if need be... sitting in the slow lane is alright, but I do get a bit salty when everyone is blowing by my at 90 mph
Im not in a big rush to get into something else, but I am certainly on the lookout for im not sure what yet...
I want to spend about 5k with maybe another 1.5k in improvements and upgrades after the fact. Im looking for something small and efficient, but I could sure go for some pep as well.
Im always on the lookout for a decent RS, otherwise ive been spotting quite a few older two door BMWs around town that I really like the looks of, but Im not sure what sort of trouble I might be getting myself in mechanically.
Any thoughts on the matter are greatly appreciated

Re: Sold my WRX... now what
psh that would be nice. Unfortunately I just lost my job...
also since we are doing updates... Im headed to Ecuador in about two weeks. I stumbled upon a cheap ticket and its going to be cheaper for me to bum and surf down there than it is just to do the day to day here. So yea figured Id snatch it up while I can, plus I recently broke up with my first love so I got to get out or Im afraid my current lifestyle is going to do me in for good

I'm not going through a breakup but I am feeling the romantic pain right now. I know how it goes man, you're seriously not alone.
Anyways, hope your trip goes well.

Re: Sold my WRX... now what
yea man it sucks hard. Certainly not my first go around, but Ive had some pretty serous relationships before this one, and they have never even come close to affecting me this much when they ended.
Being romantic sucks, I always wished I could just be sleezy enough to play the field and feel no remorse

Re: Sold my WRX... now what
yea its a dark route.
its been rough though, not really sure how to deal with it all. In the past ive just replaced one romance woa with another, but im determined to clean the slate this time, but in the mean time, its gut wrenching knowing she is with someone else and im laying around alone

Re: Sold my WRX... now what
hahaha yea. mostly been sticking to the beer and plenty of it. Unfortunately when Im troubled however I find myself in all sorts of odd tussles, and I am by no means a fighter, just really good at starting shit over nothing. Last night some dude straight head butted me out of nowhere and now I have a busted nose and some very broken pride... pretty embarrassing really, but Im glad it didnt go any further

Rake their shin with the tip of your foot if you have hard soles on then when they bend over from the pain, elbow them in the face.

Re: Sold my WRX... now what
there were a lot of tactics that needed to be employed, for starters not sticking my face out in front of him, with my hands on my hips
