I think I've outgrown my Subie :(
As much as I hate to admit it, as much as I hate to say it, I think I need more...


Power means a lot, but I don't need 600hp, etc... I want a car that has more features, a car that is quiet for once... I just want the thing to handle pretty good, Im not doing hammy runs anymore, no more track days (well, maybe in the future).... Ahhhh! I'm getting old!!!



I was thinking of the new Volvo C30 Hatch with the turbo motor.

I want less.

The blubaru is too big and heavy. I want an Elise next, and maybe a used Rav4 for ski trips or days when I want to carry more than a toothbrush as luggage.

A C30? Have you driven one? I've heard they are sort of *yawn* boring.

Yeah, I know... but at least the EVO is more refined... You know? Maybe I just need to mod my car and add suspension and such?
