Would be fascinating to know all the things that folks have called me in for. Makes me think that there's no way for the police/HWY patrol to ever take any of that seriously, but of course I have no idea.
I wonder what the police think about someone that calls 911 because someone cut them off.
Anyway, I'm genuinely curious as to why people do that sort of thing.

My car was the POSTER AD for Lesbians and Foresters. My name is Leslie, I was SO tempted to put LESLIEN on the plate. 

I don't have to be so insecure with my husband. He has never expressed much interest in other women to cause me to feel like he would 'wander.' I also make it a point to be the baddest *** chick he will ever meet, nullifying any interest he might take in another woman. So he can smile and wave all he wants. He knows where the goods are.

Plus the wagon has more cargo space. Albeit not by much, '02 All seats in place 27.9 cu ft and 61.6 total vs '12 at 22.5 and 52.4 total, but it's still more.

Saturday night we were going out. I was driving my girls lexus 09 is250. I saw a 350z with two dudes in it driving like an *** hat, swerving through traffic. This is on capitol expwy at around 9pm (tons of cars). To his defense the car sounded pretty sweet though. Any way I stopped at a light right before the freeway entrances. As I approached the entrance I saw him on the embankment like as if he took the turn too hot and drove off! I said " look that idiot must've driven off!" And we all laughed. His car looked ok from what I saw but I'm sure there was damage done. Idiot

Alas?!?! Errg. I wanted the 06-08 forester so bad, but couldn't find any in my price range. Now I'm stuck with my ugly usdm front end till I can afford the jdm swap.
If in doubt, FLAT OUT

In fact, I sold my WRX which I had spend a lot of time, effort and funds replacing just about everything to trade "up" to a car with some of the same issues and start the process all over

Is that what being a Subaru owner is about? Because ever since I bought my 08 Forester for $18k w/ 70k miles on it in 2012....I've had to do a motor swap, turbo upgrade, head gasket (three times now since I replaced the pistons due to worn rings) and it drank oil like a *****. I've never had a car with so many gremlins, and I've owned a MKIV GTI! But still, I love the damn thing in spite of its issues. That must be what being a Subaru owner is about....the sacrifice, commitment and glutton for punishment. I regret buying this car from a ricer hack. I will never regret savings its life. It would have ended up in a junkyard somewhere, and a WRB 08 XT Sport in a 5 speed, 1/75 made in 08 doesn't deserve that fate. At least I didn't think it did.....my husband would argue.

Mine was a one owner and definitely not abused, just a little neglected. Drinks zero oil and aside from age related issues and that wonderful rear wheel bearing fiasco, it has been a good experience. Power steering pump is whining now though... I love this thing too though.
My AE86 was a one owner car too, 111k original miles, original paint, body, interior, original engine, etc.
