in terms of problems there literally minimal problems regarding this car. numerous magazine articles has confirmed this. there are also several mags that have tested this car for 30k plus. . . and had vitually no problems. the shudder/vibration you may be describing may be in realation to the fact that boxer type engines to vibrate more heavily @ idle. once the rpms rise the vibrations cease. its a good thing in my opinion when i see younger drivers getting subarus. i would much rather have my child driving taht over any honda anyday.

your insurance should cover the car, but I am not sure if they would cover ALL of the mods. there is probably a penumbra in so far as what is covered and what is not depending on your insurance co
be very careful driving this car. i dont want to sound like your parent but i am almost 30 and i still want to get crazy sometimes.

well, anyways its true that sometimes u just wanna tear it up) try looking the car up at websites... and when u are ready to buy be sure that u run the cars vin on carfax. . . if u really wanna enjoy the car see if there are any driving schools- not the basic ones but the racing ones...
