My new Forester 2.5XT
Well, I've plastered my car everywhere from Reddit to NASIOC. But I'm posting again because it's been about 7 years since I've had a car that was so much fun to drive, and I'm already in love with this thing.
Here she is, bone stock. Needs a few hoses replaced and a CV boot. Otherwise, this car simply doesn't show the 120k miles it has.
runboyrun14 on Reddit and my buddy Skylar (don't know his username - he's got a white STI and his wife has a red WRX wagon) who checked over my car today told me to show up here. So here I am.
And here she is:

I've had my fxt for about two months now (at 40k) and I know exactly what you're feeling haha. 120k though, are there records of the timing belt being changed might want to look into that and the head gasket just to be sure. Other than that...wag on brotha!

I believe I test drove that one, ended up with my white FXT from somewhere else. The sales mgr at that dealer jerked me around when I asked about the timing belt, but a week later got a call from my actual sales rep who I had been talking with saying they had done the belt, so it is great that it got done and got picked up by someone who appreciates the car!
(Enjoy the window tint lol)

Good job man, that is a clean one.

Anyway, it's a great car. The window tint isn't horrible, but it's also not the best. I can deal with it right now. I'm more concerned with getting some exhaust and coil overs at this stage.
But top priority is replacing those TMIC hoses and that CV boot.
