....course there's the whole off road adventure the car went on.

The off-raod adventure was a blast. He probably would have been fine if he didn'ts try and turn around. Of course the path I took ended up pretty freaky, especially when you are whobbling on only 2 wheels and inches from a rocks.

I didn't do that! That was you and Matt (or somebody else, I can't remember exactly), I heard about that second hand! The only time I've abused the shit out of your car is at the auto-x.

That might have been Jesse when he came to visit, but I'm pretty sure that was you because I remember having to drive your mustang and thinking that the clutch was impossibly stiff.

Either way, my car wasn't hammered too bad during break-in, but it certainly wasn't broken in "gently". I pretty much drove it on day one the way I drive it today.

No way dude, I remember you telling me the story about the "combo-meal" break-in after it happened. And you've thought my clutch was impossibly stiff for a long time, that could have been anytime in the last 5 years. (Although it's not bad at all now since I finally changed the clutch cable)

I disavow all knowledge of and culpability for said combo-meal.

Well, when Scott told me the story, it was you Austin, and the car was smoking when it finally stopped So, he's had you as the culprit for days now.

Maybe it was his imaginary friend...who knows, it sure as hell wasn't me, I didn't know Scott when he got his car, only soon after.

Being the manager of the detail department at the local Subaru dealership, I personally gas and wash every STI we recieve. This Includes yours Brandon, and since yours was never test driven, I give you my word that your car was never driven hard.
