You carry an extra quart of engine oil in your trunk. When you've convince family members to buy Subaru.

Haha +1 on the extra oil in the trunk and accelerating momentarily to hear the turbo spool and PSH!

+1 - I was thinking of getting a sticker pointing to my exhaust that said "Subaru sound system..." I did the mudflaps, and they're the only cosmetic mod to my car (besides a couple stickers, but I don't think they count as mods).

When one of the first mods you can think of, or did were the mudflaps.

When others throw you the duces.

When you change your own oil, and NEVER bring it to the oil change shop.

I believe what he means is that at most smog places, they dont have a 4WD or AWD compatible roller, so they make you stay on the flat grounds.

OR

If your subie is lowered and cannot make the rollers without damaging the body
