Will they ever make good cars again?
>>
>>28963108
They make good everyday cars. The outback is one of the least expensive cars that can drive itself down the highway hands free

What's the problem with subarus? No one would ever get excited to own or drive a subaru but they're no nonsense, no-stress, good enough for any reasonable person, and not too expensive. Unless you absolutely require the smoothest quietest ride ever with razor sharp handling and outrageous power you pretty much can't go wrong. Only reason I didn't get one was that they're so good they're boring, so I got a european hot hatch instead.

I went from a 4cyl pickup to a Subaru it was super exciting?
Hot hatches do not go sideways

No, it's completely and utterly over. Buy an old one now before they appreciate further (especially in the case of the most desirable ones like 1st gen Impreza coupes/wagons, GD STi, 6 cylinders, and anything manual, turbo, and not a sedan like Forester XT and Legacy GT/Outback XT) if those are what has your eye.)

They'll pander to dykes and homos. Thats about it

They'll get worse if anything. The boxer is definitely not long for this world. It will likely be replaced by Toyota's 3 cylinder. So while you may still get a good AWD system it still has a turbo 3 cylinder and a CVT driving it.

My father just scraped the fuck out of this girl today backing it out of the driveway. I should've moved it myself yesterday and he told me he was going to have me move it today... Should've taken it to work today.

Love my Baja
A shame they don't make them anymore

the ones they made for me are pretty good

those roof racks on your wrx are gay as fuck my man

it's oem and is actually used for hauling shit from home depot, unlike most wrxs with massive racks whose only function is to reduce aero and make the owners look like posers

Still rice as fuck and makes you look like a poser

It is very, very unlikely. They’ve been selling more in this decade than ever before, by like a factor of 2-3 iirc from when they made fun stuff and did WRC. It’s a pretty small company, why do all this rally shit and let tuners destroy your cars when you can sell to liberal women and turn a profit?

Hang yourself.

>>28963108
They'd have to have made good cars in the first place
>>
>>28964273
In the mid 00s, all you had to do was spend $300 to crank the boost up to 18-20psi and they would beat almost anything on the street. Vettes were the only real competition, you’d win to cobras in roll races. I know because I did it. Now cars in general are much faster than then.

I beat a nu-WRX in a beat up old Prius...

Did they know you were racing them?

>>28964383
In 06 stis did 0-60 in 4.5 stock. That was insane at the time, still sort of is. They’ve only gotten slower since, but there was a time when they were the fastest 1%. M3s, S4s, ls1s, 4.6 fords? Only the LSs stood a chance. I had an 06 STi, got it at 5k miles. My housemate in 08 or 09 finally stomped me in his modded f-body SS. I’d lose to swapped del sols, but at the time I didn’t worry about V8s very much.

if not, i got 2 of the 5 I wanted
>>
they havent made anything good since like 2005 so i doubt it

Ever since getting a Forrester in Colorado I can stop seeing them. Everyone has one
>>

What got scraped up? The plastic splash guard under the engine bay?
>>
>>28965147
Same thing in upstate NY. I don't know how they are not the best selling vehicle in the world based on what's in my area.

How does a roof rack make anyone look like a poser? Where is the faggot going to put his kayak?

Im torn on the roof rack thing

Been waiting for some snow to see if Subaru's AWD is really that good
>>
>>28965430
The bumper itself has two black gashes now underneath the plastic vent thingies.. that one has a drift plate thankfully, so nothing but cosmetic damages. Im just gonna put a lip kit on it I think. My old man has done a lot of shit for me so I just didn't mention it.
>>
Should I even bother with the +/- manual mode?
>>
>>28965687
Unless you're on a steep grade or in steep snow, no.

I want to start a meme war between Forester and Outback fags

Just to tamper your expectations: Subaru have several different AWD systems. The traditional best one is usually only on manual ones. Nowadays some models use electronic braking differentials and I am of the understanding autos have a [very] slightly shittier system.
Then some models have limited slips. All Subaru (maybe just the manuals?) have a locked center diff (or DCCD). STis have LSD front and rear, some models just have rear. That makes a big difference. They're all still better systems than anything this side of high-tier Audi, but they can drive differently from each other.
Someone else did the research:

I feel invisible to cops on the road because of what a soccer mom my Subaru makes me look like

I like my VB. Most of the random nits can be dealt with little QoL mods. Mounted my Öhlins shocks today, and the ride quality is much improved.

Japan? No.
>>
>>28963548
I still don't understand your post. What does any of this have to do with FWD?
