What's going to be watered down? They better not put any water in a $70k car.

Don't forget it's an AT too.

Seriously Kevin, as much of a subaru fan boy that you are, i wouldve sold it as quick as possible and started with a nice project car/dd that was a stick.

Tires and mirror were not part of my "mods", but if you wanan count it then it's 550 for tires and 130 for mirror. But if you're gonna count things like this, you better count insurance, gas, and maintenance also.

Cars are not cheap, probably the most expensive hobby you can get into.
