Just bought 2004 Forester 2.5XT

First post here...

Just bought a 2004 Forester 2.5XT...
I can't find much online regarding the performance of the automatic version, all i've seen is the numbers for the 5-speed, 0-60mph in like 5.4 and 1/4 mi in 13.8...
Anyone here have the same car and run it yet, or know of anyone who has?
I'm probably going to run it tomorrow at E-town to get some baseline numbers because i plan on modding it ASAP.

Thanks,
Adam

Nice car!

I would strongly suggest breaking the car in first before racing it.

Thanks for the advice, but that's how i "break in" all my new cars.
At the drag strip after the first 200 miles... lol.
I've been rewarded w/ "factory freak" performance in the past, so hopefully this car will respond the same.

I've had mine for a few months now and I'm very happy with it. Can't say I took it to the track yet. A few people have though:
