Aries419 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Hey guys, I'm new to soobys. I've always admired them, from afar, but was never really into owning one. I preferred the Jeeps, trucks, classic cars...hell, everything that ate a LOT of gas, I probably love/d. Well, I have about 4 gas eaters, so when I decided I was going to add to my collection of rides, I figured I'd get the gas efficient "grocery getter". I like taking a lot of roadtrips AND I live in Reno/Tahoe...so my criteria was basically: gas efficient, sporty, moon roof (don't judge me), and AWD. Subaru was always at the top of the list, so I finally found an Impreza that happened to be my fav color...so I knew it was meant to be:lol: I stumped about 3 locksmiths in the area for programming the keyless remote...but I finally programmed it yesterday, on my own. Must have been the standing on my head, while singing Whitney Houston, and crossing my eyes as I pressed the lock/unlock buttons corresponding to the FOB number:banghead:...hell, I don't know. It was a PIMA, but I'm just glad I did it. I figured I'd join a board, just in case I have other issues, and to also help with someone having a similar issue. Cheers!

Haunty Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Cool, it looks like new I always admired Subarus too, but I never really liked how most of them looked. When I was in high school, my dream car was the Outback Sport. And now I have today's version of that basically, which is pretty cool :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now I have today's version of that basically, which is pretty cool :cool: I really like the looks of the hatchback...so I was looking at some very nice Outback Sports and the Impreza Sports...But, this car fell into my line of vision as I was out shopping, so I went for it. Had all of my criteria and was my favorite color -- which I didn't think they had available. I still like the fact that the back seat is 60/40, so I can fit stuff in through the trunk, if need be.

hsnow Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Well hello there! I would like to welcome you to the forum though I am new here as well. Subbies as how it has been coined around my area is indeed a head turner. Though I am not quite sure the Subaru is the best option if you are looking for a car that is to be the most fuel efficient, based on my experience mainly. But you could really make for that in the style department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
