That’s an insult to the Saab 9-7x.

Yet, people crash cars every day, and you’re willing to drive among them...

His point is that the way the US economy is set up, is that it favors companies (including his) moving things over seas. Why wouldn’t he take advantage of that as a businessman? He wants to change is so that companies have little to no incentive to make things (cars, shirts and ties...) over seas or in Mexico when

Nope, NY. And STI. WRX’s start around $26,000 at the no negotiating place.

The real hats are made in the US. It’s the knock-offs that are made in China, Mexico or Vietnam...

Says the wanna be rapper...

The local “no negotiating” dealer has them for $37-41k all the time, depending on trim and options. I’ve heard the other large Subaru dealer in the area will beat their price if you negotiate, but not by much.

Why wouldn’t you just get the GSW 4motion then? I don’t get it. What are you doing where the minimally added height is beneficial, but if they had added more, it would be detrimental?

Funny, because I don’t make do. Haven’t had to make do at all. I drive ~25,000 miles a year in my car, and more than half of them are during winter. Haven’t had to make do at all.

I have never even come close to needing AWD, besides when I was intentionally pushing the limits, like attempting to venture into old packed snow that was up the the headlights on my Xterra. FWD and snows is perfectly adequate.

I would test drive a regular cab if it was all they had. That would give me a close enough idea to let me know if I was even interested. If it passed the test drive, I would still need to physically check out a crew cab. If the regular cab was a shot box and I wanted a long box crew cab, I’d need to test drive it

So, were you born to want the ST or the GTI?

If it is so in demand, I’m sure the current system of having 400 vehicles on the lot will be a profitable and successful business, and therefor have no issue competing with places (private and manufacturer) that wish to carry a more streamlined model.

Learn to drive then. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There isn’t any reason that a “dealer” type couldn’t still exist. It could be an independent one, like dealers are now, or owned by the manufacturer. Their primary objective would be vehicle service/warranty work, but they could also carry a low inventory for test drives or people that want/need a car now.

It isn’t even out yet... how did you rent it?

Did you have snow tires? I’m guessing not. I survived in Buffalo with FWD for years, but it required snow tires.

I agree, it’s a great car. It just needs a better engine.
