.................least its not an Audi! :D


So, is she taking it wheeling?

she's taking it to work and back, and hopefully not getting high centered getting out of our neighborhood like the last 2 years, lol.

it's a nifty little thing and for her needs, it'll be fine. I like the turbo.
 
I am actually ok with that car haha. I am a fan of the Subaru Impreza WRX.

I have tried out the new wrx and the new wrx sti, very much refined! smoother ,quiter,doesn't feel like a go cart, but they still haul ass.

It's Ok, not quite as cheap as the 02 WRX that I had (and hated) years ago when I first moved here. It gets up and moves, it'll climb the mountains out I70 and what more can you ask for in a commuter besides better mileage. Still a typical subaru inside, not very refined and pretty cheapola.

it's quite a bit taller and I'd almost prefer an 08 but there arne't any left that aren't the 30,000 dollar sport package cars.
the 09 has a twin screw turbo too, there is zero lag which is nice, though there wasn't much before with the little snails they use.
drove the murano and the CX7 and liked this a lot more than either, didn't get to the rav or CRV, felt they were overpriced.

Mazda CX7 was LAG CENTRAL. Geeze.
 
Nice Philip. We looked at the XT, the CX7 and I'm partial to the Speed3 right now.

they had a red speed3 at mcdonald, never was my cup of tea, since we're up the hill in castle rock she really does need an AWD with some height to get out of here otherwise they make her stay in a hotel up by work when it snows, lol

Ive wanted a MS3 for a couple years now. I wish I could afford a new car at the moment. Only downer is it needs 91.




philip_g, what kind of mgp are you getting?

That I didn't know.

Dunno, it's only got like 50 miles on it.

the 02 wrx was a turbo but the old wrx's had the 2.0L turbo which was terrible to drive at this altitude.
