Even if they do a mid-cycle refresh for MY2015, I can't imagine them dropping the hatch which they already have all the tooling for, and which constitutes a not-insignificant percentage of their sales. That is, unless they're trying to push them towards the Crosstrek instead, like they did with the Legacy Wagon and…

This is a simplistic and half-assed assessment, and even that is being generous.

Carp of the day?

All Subaru owners suck

What's with all the vitriol directed at subaru owners lately? This is the second time in a week.

The new STI chassis is supposed to handle much better than the old ones, if reviews are to be believed.

I would be willing to accept 2 out of the 3.

I agree.

That's not necessarily true. I'm reasonably sure you can reduce drag without affecting downforce.

Personally, I bought mine because I can only have one car that has to cover all the bases. I wanted a sporty car, but also a car that handles inclement weather well (provided you shod it in the correct rubber). In addition, as my only car, it needed to be able to carry what I needed, so a hatchback or station wagon…

I live in Mass, and I would say that the great majority of owners here fall into none of those 3 categories. They're just regular joes (or janes) that happened to buy a subaru for whatever reason.

I don't know you, but your shitty attitude speaks for itself. When you write inflammatory bullshit like this:

Yes, giant chip. Learn what it means before you try to use it in a sentence.

And I can tell you that I know 5 other Subaru owners, not including myself, and none of us fall into any of those categories. Not even close.

I don't have to prove shit, as I've done nothing wrong. You're the one coming in here and belittling other car owners for absolutely no reason. I'd love to know how you came by this giant chip on your shoulder.

So you criticize and stereotype all owners of a specific brand, and then if anyone even dares to respond to your criticism, you treat that as evidence that the criticism is warranted?

Someone's been drinking the Haterade.

You mean the hot-hatch reliability article? I don't put much stock in 'predicted reliability', especially when it's inconsistent between model years with no changes.

Compared to what though....?

Has there been a better time in history to be a Jalop than right now?
