The Perfect Car — Beautiful, Reliable, alright MPG, Fast, Great Handling, AWD is great for snow and dirt roads. This is an all around great car unless you need a more spacious vehicle for a family or whatever reason. This car will also last until the day you die.

Pros

Light, Short gears, Great gas mileage with stock motor.

Cons

None really, the car has been pretty good to me. 155k miles and still running strong!

35

My Project Car — Good news: This car is super good as a DD. It gets great gas mileage in which I get an average of 26 MPG with mixed driving. The car is great to drive coming from a 2002 WRX. The whole car is 400 pounds lighter. It feels a lot more nimbler than my WRX. Kinda bad news: I'm swapping in a WRX motor into this car so that means, slightly worse gas mileage with premium gas. But hey, you gotta pay to play, right? More of an update when I get the turbo motor in. Would not recommend because I got the 2 door to be different than all the other WRXs and STis.

It's well made

Cons

head gasket leaks

Subaru Love — These years have a head gasket leak problem but I loved this car! The body style is right before they went with the "bug eyes" style, I love either this body style or the 2004/2005's. I can't wait to own another Subaru.

Subaru Impreza Gt — Uhm right. Well the performance is awesome but it could do way better, which is what I'm working on. The car is beautiful both inside and out. Metal blue paint and with a black stripe over the hood and black roof. It doesn't cost much to run, which is great compared to the horse count. And it's spectacular to drive, best car I've driven so far. And probably will stay that way for awhile. Could probably write way more, but don't really have the time atm...

you'll never be able to bring yourself to sell it

Subarus Go On Forever — SubaruS are built like tanks.it's got a bulletproof engine which I have put 80k on and its never broken down or failed an MOT in 7 years that I've owned it . I'm not the most careful of owners and don't exactly drive slowly but it takes all the punishment I can give it. I have bought other cars since I purchased the Subaru but can never bare to sell the damn thing!

My Scooby — I've had this car for about 4 years and I have been upgrading since day 1, stainless exhaust, front mount intercooler, Apexi ecu with commander, td05 turbo, vta bov, samco hoses, braided brake lines, light weight alloys, wraped in toyo proxes, its not been on the rolling road yet but should be around 320 bhp (I hope!). I will get some pics on soon

My 99 Wrx Club Spec Evo 3 — I bought this car totally on a whim one day when I decided that I wanted a WRX now! Has failed to dissappoint me yet. I have owned it for over 3 years now and it still excites me everytime I turn the key and push down on that responsive accellerator. Being bought second hand it did need an engine and gearbox rebuild probably as a result of mistreatment of this beautiful peice of work by it's previous owner. Has not missed a beat since. It's the type of car you have if you simply love to drive.
