this is one fast SUV doing high 13's on the quarter mile, and yes... this is faster than your WRX!

 

what the ****

 

right now they are the fastest car Toyota males 300hp or something like that I thingk

 

I've seen a rental camry with the airbox removed do low 14's at infinion. luckily I roll high 13's

 

Whos wrx?

 

Nah, they have the Lexus LFA super car. http://www.lexus.com/LFA/

552hp V10

 

Not mine

 

I'd smoke that thing!

 

subaru really needs to step up their game if toyotas' rav4 can put down those kind of numbers .This must be what it was like when muscle car owners found out about the sti and evo!

 

Those 2wd reg cab tundras with the big v8 are pretty effn quick also. High 13's i think.

 

Subaru should make 330hp wrx and 400hp sti. That would keep the soccer moms away in their Rav4's.

 

I wonder if he's ever played with a Forester? Hmm...

I'm pretty certain my wife would smoke him like an Alaskan salmon...

...and her Forester is an automatic!!

 

ORLY?



Subaru was here and did this 6 years ago, thanks.
BTW, since the ad doesn't tell you, the 1/4 mile time listed by C&D was 13.8 seconds - stock off the showroom floor.

Subaru has been going BACKWARDS since then, unfortunately. They've bloated up the Forester and the turbo model is only available with the automatic.
Not to say that the automatic can't be made to go fast, mind you - my wife has proof of that sitting in the driveway.

 

i think manufacturers need to stop adding more and more power to cars, especially to bigger cars like SUVs and such. i rather have a lighter car with less hp than a heavier car with more hp.

 

I would love to see subaru put twin turbos on the 3.0 6cyl motor thats in the tribeca, drop that with a 6 speed into a forester body, and call it the new forester STI
