I loved my S13 while I had it. Thing was like an over sized go kart. I'll buy another one, one day.

XB's look and go ok, an XY on the other hand :love-struck:

Great to hear some positive feedback with regard to the Impreza, got a call from the dealer up this way to say they got some more in, just gotta work out finance/moneys is all... le sigh.

Just found out the top model 2011 challenger's sell for 36 grand new in America. If I was still working I would have been importing that right now.

Both are good for me.

4 Wheel driving... Manual.
City driving (work and back) auto.
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

I prefer manual but I own an auto at the moment, it is a lot more satisfying to drive since doing some 'upgrades' to it though. (Corvette servo, UHD bands, steel valve body pistons, pressure increase valve, corvette sun gear, heavy duty sprag clutch, Stage II Transgo shift kit.)

Sounds like American technology, equalling some sort of strengthened and revalved trans, with a shift kit or something...

If he'd said turbo400 I'd have known what he was on about.
