GoldDiggerRoo Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 I usually stick to my older subies, but I have to say that I just totally love the new ones too. After months of wanting to, I finally managed to get down to the dealership tonight to get some info and a test drive. I drove a 2004 Impreza 2.5 TS wagon in San Remo Red. It was gorgeous! All the fun stuff, cd, air, loads of power acc., roof rack. The only thing I didn't love was the wheelcovers... I'd much rather have the WRX wheels. I drove the car maybe 6 miles and up to 70mph. It had loads of pep and was just a blast to drive, super quiet and smooth..... deff not the 'roo of old. It was cool to that I talked to a salesman who has sold Subies since '85. He loved my '83 Wagon and we got to talking... he knew the saleswoman who sold one of my '84's brand new! I didn't get up the nerve to ask him if I could test drive one of the WRX STi's they have in stock. Maybe I'll go back and try to sweet talk him into that one I so want a new Subie, but I'll have to stick to my older 'roo's for the time being. Oh well... I can dream can't I! I'm considering sleeping with the '04 Impreza brochure I got under my pillow in hopes that the Subie fairy will bring me an STi :-p There is a subie fairy isn't there?......

99obw Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 A new car is not in our short term plans, so I am dreaming about an '06 outback turbo 2.5 or a 3.0. My wife wants a minivan. If they introduce the seven passenger Subaru that may be an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoobySchmitty Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Yesterday, I was killing time with a friend of mine. I really was looking for a tuner for my guitar, but on the way we passed a Mazda dealership with a few new RX-8's out front. From there we hatched our plan. He drives a Bimmer, in decent shape. If we both dressed like urbanite freaks, and drove up in that, we could most definately talk the dealer into a test drive We haven't done this yet, but I think I'll try and talk him into going down to the local Scoob dealership, which happens to have a couple of 04 STi's...You can guess the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
