Thank you for not making a long winded joke.

Some EG33s found their way into Imprezas and Legacy/Outbacks. A nice power bump but the turbo EJ 4s overshadowed them pretty quickly.

Depends on the Malibu. I rented them in the early 2000s regularly and every one of them had warped brake rotors. They’d do 105 on the highway south of Chicago but the brakes didn’t inspire confidence. I gave up on rentals, bought a car and paid it off using the mileage allowance from work.

I’ll suggest the Impreza RS in the US as the WRX didn’t come along until the second generation in 2001. But Subaru the 2.5L engine into the RS between 98 and 2000, selling leftovers as “2001" until the WRX started to arrive.

Must like a temporarily embarrassed millionaire, there’s a big difference between your thirty mile commute and the cross country trip you think you’ll be taking.

I’m also more left than anyone in this thread, guarantee it.

Dennis Miller hasn’t been funny since he picked up a conservative identity. Name a funny conservative, if you can.

There’s a nice car rally down there. Most locals are very friendly and supportive. A few holdouts try to intimidate volunteers by waving guns around and firing into hillsides on their property but none of the other locals take them seriously.

I would hope there are just as many rural mail carriers using JDM vans for work as JDM fanboys wanting a car show conversation piece.

As someone that drive I80 regularly across Iowa and Nebraska, bump that up to 110 and I’ll agree.

I want to know who’s getting Volvo’s royalty money: Hook or Bernard?
