besides the visibility issues out of it i would take one in a heartbeat. and this is coming from a former honda guy and serial subaru owner. I drove just about any of the generations of camaros, and the ones after the resurrection are just that good.  

nah, that looks like the child of the 2005-2009 mazda3 and the current impreza

they are going to resemble a minivan, which is what everyone avoids buying

what you are describing is not the crosstrek. That thing is huge.

more like a Cherokee Edge and a Forester had a threesome. I kinda like the way it looks.

so? we got trekkies, star wars and comic cons fans, and fanatic sports fans? to each their own.

i am sure that this wagon would cannibalize the outback and forester sales, that’s why it’s not coming here anytime soon.

not necessary. I know some of the pad materials like a certain temperature they are effective at. Anything less the brakes are crap. I always got that with some hawk hps in the lower 20F temperatures on my cars. I had to pretty much tap them constantly or drag them for a bit for the car to be able to brake when…

care to explain why?

my 2017 wrx costs about half of the 2006 oddissey to insure. and my 2015 oddissey is about the same as the wrx.

wouldn’t option a be the rail system?

weren’t those used more to keep the heat in the brakes? I know honda used some on their cars in the rear only just to prevent the brakes from cooling too much

the “pick-up” dacias were actually rwd, especially in the later years. Sedans and the wagons were fwd.

i was able to change mine on a few occasions.

they are never too far gone for David Tracy.

saturn did it first :) not with carbon fiber though

not necessarily true on the first point. My wrx doesn’t care where the wheels are mounted on the car as long as the tpms is present. it does not complain about anything after a tire rotation.

standard fare for that generation legacy. I did not have the tpms on my 05, but the rusty bolts inside, exhaust hangers and the brakes. i had the car since new, and it’s never seen more than puddles.

nope, you are not the only one. I guess since the trunk lid of my car is so high there are horrendous blind spots around it. I use the backup camera and side mirrors though.  

usually ECUs have the VIN in them, so that will not match the car
