I think it looks great!
It looks more USDM with that new grille, not to mention it probably breathes
better anyway.

The spoiler looks cool but it isn't quite as big as the ones we got over here.
I bet it still does it's job though.

Lucky with the snow.
I've been hoping for snow to stick around here for quite some time.

Hey, I just noticed, you have a "swoosh" logo on the side of your car, on the
trim.
That's so cool...
We never got anything like that over here in the states.

My 2 ride's impreza plus 1994 and a zundapp 517 moped 1970



About the 'swoosh' :
I'm not shure , but it is not JDM..

Thanks for the gorgeous pictures, Rene. Your vehicles and the beautiful countryside look great. Send us more once in awhile.

Hi Rene, welcome. I'm curious about the air dam on the front of your beautiful suby. Are there more like that around in your salvage yards???
I think I want one. Very cool moped as well. A friend of an old Suby, is a friend of mine, cheers.

[mikewilke77]

oooooooooooooh sorry to see the rust.
I was asking about the air dam on the leone/loyale.
very cool impreza tho.

[Rene]

Is that corrosion on the door seams and be pillar, or is that some sort of body undercoat wax?

It is a sort of undercoat wax , it is everywere on the car : at the inside of the hood , inside the trunk, engineroom etc etc
The last owner was someone from Belgium and he treathed this car with love and care , they never smoked in it!!

Rene, welcome to the Board. I love your cars. I also like how clean they are. I find Europeans are so much more conscientious about keeping them clean and shiny. So obvious that you believe in that too.

That DL-STD sedan is so nice.

Slant console, manual choke... Do a 1800cc swap and it will be a real hotrod.

Up till now i'll keep the car original i know someone who has a EA81 in stock so a engineswap should be possible..
But that engine did run much more km's then the original EA65..
The things i like to do on the car : other radio with FM band on it , third brakelight , some work at the rearbreaks , new taillight and in the near future 4 new tyre's : is standing now on 4 different tyre's and i hate that!

I did not have a mirror on the right door , Leoneturbo had 1 for sale :

[Loyale 2.7 Turbo]

Beautiful... Really Nice!

I've seen some 1300 DL's here, but in the Newer Shape (Loyales) They have only four Speed trans and the EA65 engine.
