      ianblake1980 - When did anyone ever say we built a rally car? I was simply explaining the reason for the styling of the mirrors. I thought maybe our viewers would appreciate a little understanding of why they are shaped the way they are?

    Man... I really believe you all came up on top from building this car and got yourselves closer to that “Million Subscribers” and just being in the green all the way! When it all started for you guys, being apart of this build from the time you were just surfing the web for a giveaway car, I can’t imagine how you all will feel letting this one go. The sentimental value it must have especially during this time for the World. So for this being one of the last videos of the “Subaru WRX STI Build”... I genuinely want to say a big THANK YOU! Thank you for providing to community and giving back in every way possible. You have provided opportunities for people to dream and have hope that as you guys move forward... WE ALL CAN! ✌🏽 Thank You to Throtl Team sending my appreciation to you all!

    To everyone here complaining about the mirrors; first of all, not your car. They are building it go give away, yes, but that doesn't mean they have to take your opinion into account. If you somehow win the car, then for gods sake, change the mirrors. I doubt it would be that hard.

    Nice touches on the car, bro. You guys really killed it with this one. The mirrors look good to me, but hey, what can ya do? Can't please everyone. You're including the factory one's, so there's no point in all these bozos complaining.
    Also, what would happen if someone weren't able to drive across country to pick this car up, or afford to have it shipped? For example, my dad is quadriplegic, and I take care of him, so I wouldn't be able to leave to come get this if I /were/ to win it, and there's no possible way I could afford to ship it home right now. Been out of work for a while now.
