Anyone else get told "you're too straight for a Subaru"?

Several of my (mid-30s like me, both boys and girls) friends can't get past the lesbian-vehicle-of-choice reputation.

I think the main thing that bothers people is the big wing. Somehow if you have a wing like that then you must be immature.

Oh and girls absolutely hate the car.
Yup, you hit bullseye. They see the big spoiler and think you're a racer. A lot of people don't realize the spoiler comes with the STi's. I've had people ask me why did I buy such a big spoiler.

Heck, I used to drive an Odyssey, now replaced by a Mazda 5.

I could honestly give a rats *** about what anyone else THINKS I should be driving

Cars have no age restriction, if a 60 y/o wants to blast around in a SRT4, blowing off his shizzle at every stop light, then more power too him

If YOU are the one spending the money on the car, then YOUR opinion of it should be the only one that matters

People who sit there are break down what you drive, your age, your career, etc, need to get a god damn life and mind their own business

I'm a professional engineer, I work for a fortune 300 company, my boss is 40+, my next boss' boss is 55+. I still roll into the parking lot daily with my loud exhaust, huge wing, and never think twice what others may perceive of it

<--car enthusiast for life.

I'm invisible because I drive a wagon. So, my 30 something age doesn't seem to matter.

haha i think that no matter how old you are, your subby can fit you just fine. Iv'e seen older folks in 'em and as long as they're stock, they dont look half bad.. Iv'e done tons of work to my car, and it shows. And whats funny, is that cocky *** people in their vette's have no idea what we're about. Iv'e scared the **** outta people that thought subbys weren't 'fast', they just had no idea.. anywho.. thanks subby for the STi

That is quite true. Although sometimes it is nice to be invisible...

the car you drive has nothing to do with your age or personality.
it is your taste and the size of your wallet that will decide what car u get.
