Why did you choose this car?
Ginno: "I have always loved the heritage behind the Subaru brand. The looks of the STi hatchbacks have always caught my eye. Ever since I saw one on the road, I knew I wanted my own. Also, Subaru has the best AWD system available, and safety has always been important. When I saw a hatchback available in Plasma Blue Pearl, I had to have it."
What was the main goal when the build started?
Ginno: "I wanted to make the car stand out and have my twist to it. I wanted to do something unique and different from the rest."
Do you have a unique story behind the car or build?
Ginno: "When I did my initial build with this car, I had more performance mods on the car. I kept throwing go fast mods on, without any supporting mods. I was naive and used an e-tune, and my engine blew up. Luckily it was covered by warranty and I had a new motor installed. While this sucked, it also taught me a very valuable lesson."
What are your future plans for the car?
Ginno: "Make the car faster and get it to 400+ wheel horsepower, reliably. Eventually I would like a real Varis widebody kit."
Is there anything you would have done differently if you could go back?
Ginno: "I would not have done anything differently. All the mistakes and wrongs I made with the car have made it what it is today."
shoutouts
Ginno: "I want to shoutout my biggest supporter with my car and me in general, my girlfriend Carla. I also want to thank Arbie, my photographer. He's always taken great pictures for me and also gave me this awesome opportunity to be featured on SlammedEnuff. Last but not least, Vaded Mob, my second family. I haven't been around as often as I wish I could have been due to school. When I do get a chance to show up to events I have a great time with them."
