BMW 2002 as fun EV.  

I drove one for a month and that thing had terrible balance (very front-heavy, liked to lurch) and visibility.  Could fit a bunch of stuff in it though.  Good form factor but definitely some things to workout.  

It would very likely be an EV if they decided today to bring it back.  

“Visually awkward looking” is Subaru’s heritage. But by now, after a couple of generations, the looks would have been mainstreamed.

It’d be analogous to what a CUV is to a proper SUV - looks vaguely off-roadish but has middling off-road chops and functional cargo space. Someone living in the ‘burbs could bring home a couple of big potted plants in a Baja but they aren’t hauling full sheets of plywood and that’d be fine for that market segment.

Subaru Baja. They pulled the plug too early on that. ‘Murica can’t get enough of trucks and truck-like vehicles.

Took a page out of a 20-year old AOL handbook on how to filibuster a customer trying to cancel. Fuck you AOL.

My FIL had one. MB pretty much made the Chrysler K-car of 1990's SUVs.

I’ve lived long enough to see Muppets Fanfic.  

I mean, if there’s $3k in the glove compartment, yeah. IIRC, the turbo lag on this thing was ridiculous. But not to worry, the two examples I remember from a friend and a friend-of-a-friend had the turbos blow up so one problem took care of the other.  Kinda’ like my friend who graying and going bald at the same…

Iron-curtain chic

I’m 9+ years into an Outback I bought CPO that had about 70k miles on it.  Best car value I’ve every had.  

I have one on order with the “Good as Hell” options package.

A little liposuction and Pilates and you’re in business.  

That makes me think of a puffer fish. 

That gives me the feels.

Sure, why not? Let’s party like it’s 1989.  The Supra and Integra are back.

The cancelation was a total surprise to the cast and crew. They had actually started filming episode 1 of season 5 when they got word to shut it all down. Here is some raw footage . . .
