I'm looking to buy a Subaru in or around San Francisco. My budget is about $7000 or (hopefully) less. Here are my preferences, although I'm open to any offers: - sun roof - manual transmission - sedan with rear seats that fold down I'd also be open to getting a hatchback, but a wagon is probably too big for me. Please email me at ralphio@pacbell.net

Does anyone know of any years/models of Subaru sedans that have rear seats that fold down? The newer sedans all have arm rest "pass through" for skis, but the rear seats don't fold down completely. I do nature video work and live in a city, so I'm looking for a car that is compact, has 4WD or AWD, and has a secure cargo area that will deter thieves a bit more than the pullover shade that comes with the Subaru hatchbacks and wagons. I know that other makes of cars have sedans with rear seats that fold down, making them almost hatchback-like. Alternately, does anyone know of an option for putting a hard top over the cargo area of a hatchback or wagon, more like a VW Golf or Acura Integra has? Thanks
