Yeah, 2.5 for the win!
I'm going mild tune... 300/350 hp and I'll be happy.
But wanna mod my 4Runner first.
I love my Subaru.. But.. If I could find a EVO, I would rather one of those..
Only ones I can find are 2006-2008 for 30k$ cause they went fast and the furious style with it!
It would of took me longer then that to forgive you! Lol...
The Forester XT with 5 speed is soooo rare!
I looked for one for about a year before I finally admitted defeat and bought the WRX.
Shoot, now I'm mad at ya for trading it in for a mini van! :evil:
Rare or expensive! Mize well buy a wrx at the cost I have seen them at..
New2rocks.. It took my wife a few yrs (and counting) to get over me Not trading in my Harley, on a mini van! Baahahahaha..
I said hunny, "that bike was here before you and it will be here after you "... Oops.. Lol
Reasons to by an XT instead of a WRX, STi or Evo:Don't buy a turbo Subaru...don't do it... Trust me... It seems like an awesome idea and then you'll wanna turn it into a pretend race car and then guess what happens next ? Kaboom...
Maybe I'll send him a box of chocolates now that he was kind enough to give us his address.
I have an opportunity to grab a subaru xt 2.5 5spd fozzy with 120,000 miles on it and has a bunch of stuff done to it,but its that mileage+motor why im gonna let it go.
But thank you 1badjeep!!!!!!!!! You helped me make up my mind"thumbsup"
yeah... but they drive Accord's!
That's like getting barked at from a puppy. :mrgreen:
What wrong with Accords? They get great gas mileage. I thinking I would only have to fill.up twice. . .maybe three times max. . .on my way to Ontario Ca.
if gas mileage is more important to you than enjoying what you drive then nothing.
If you check it out insist on a leak down test. Also at 120k be prepared to buy a turbo...
Thanks again bud!!!!!!! Just checked and the ad was taken down so someone has a neat fozzy.if im not mistaken it was on sti pink springs,17"wheels,and possibly a bigger turbo with all kinds of hot and cold side tubing that i know wasnt stock.
Oh well guess im back to looking for gas guzzling v8 pickup's and suv's D.D."thumbsup"
importing an 89 or 90 Nissan GTR skyline. RHD like a bosssssssss
Reasons to by an XT instead of a WRX, STi or Evo:
1. The look on the face of the 50-something year old whose Boxster S you smoked off the line with two bikes on the roof of your Forester
2. See reason #1
Reasons I love my wife:
1. Insisted on the 5-speed and the turbo boost gauge when we bought her XT
2. When asked after test driving 330ci and M3 convertibles which one I should get, she said, "You gotta get the M!"
3. 7 years in with the Odyssey, she still asks about the feasibility of putting in an LS about twice a year
I think there may be other reasons, but I've forgotten them. Those are enough for me. "thumbsup"
BTW - Has anyone thanked Kaiser for starting this delightful Subie thread, albeit in the wrong section of the forum? Maybe I'll send him a box of chocolates now that he was kind enough to give us his address.
Bullshit.
Why's that ? They are federally legal to own now under the 25 year rule. And they aren't even that expensive. They can be had for 10-20k pending condition. My car once running again, and by that time should be worth about 14k. I either want he GTR or for a little less but with more JDM awesome goodies I would settle for an s13 Silvia.
