EJ22T (‘91-’94 Legacy Turbo engine) had a fully closed deck 2.2L block. Those are now highly sought after by people doing big power turbo builds on the (somewhat) cheap.

At least the WRX is still for sale.

Because a Safari is a van.

$1200 a month is $18,000 a year. That’s less than $6k above the federal poverty line for a single person. No one should be permitted to sell someone with that income a six-year car loan for $445 a month. Shit, that’s about what someone of that income level should be paying for housing, not a car.

This is a cult of personality.

It’s tires. It always has been tires, it will always be tires. 

Worth noting that this is a very weird situation already, because the FIA are attempting to shoehorn two totally different power unit types (one EV with a range extender, one conventional gasoline) into a single class. I can’t think of any other form of internationally sanctioned motorsport that is attempting this.

Good on the dealership for immediately firing these assholes.

Steve, are you a Western New York native? I am very much here for the Genny Cream and Wegman’s references.

Buy turbo Outback. Add wheels, tires, lift kit, roof rack.

I knew a guy who swapped one of the twin-turbo EJ20's into a Legacy wagon several years ago. He said there was a truly massive lag in the powerband between the first and second turbo, and that it tended to show up just as you were halfway through passing a semi on a two-lane road.

Especially given that there was basically no place you could use one. They weren’t legal for rallying, and were too big for stages anyway. There are better solutions out there for actual desert racing, and a Raptor could do most of the fun-in-the-desert stuff and still take you to work on Monday for $30k less. Not…

This is the correct answer.

Yeah, the whole motorsports sub-brand thing only works if you, y’know, do motorsports. Hopefully Mitsubishi is planning to put some legitimacy behind the badge, but I’m not holding my breath.

No, it was Nic Cage. Bruckheimer shot the phone video.

Exactly. Every brand diverted chips from their low-priced models to their high-priced ones because they were capacity constrained in 2021. This is maybe one of the more extreme examples, but even GM was sacrificing Silverado production to build more high-spec Sierras.

Wait, does LGBcoin not stand for LesbianGayBisexualcoin?

Agree, Carlos Sr. is fully awesome. Imagine the conversations around the dinner table when you’re a top F1 driver and your dad is a two-time World Rally Champion who’s still doing Dakar and Extreme E in his late 50's.

Well, I stand corrected.
