November 9, 201510 yr Nice! I'd love to find one of those or a brat with no rust, what a lovely little car!
November 9, 201510 yr Call me Crazy, but somehow I prefer this little Hatchback, than the Crosstrek. Congratulations!!! ... ... What are the plans with this gem? Kind Regards.
November 9, 201510 yr Author Your'e crazy. Happy? lol You'd have to drive the crosstrek. . . It really is something else.
November 9, 201510 yr I've driven a crosstreck quite a lot, actually. I'm with JesZek, I'll take the hatchy. The crosstreck CVT makes me angry, it's BAD. Maybe a manual one would be better...
November 9, 201510 yr I've driven both. They both have their days. I actually like the cvt in the crosstrek. I've heard the 5spd is nutless. Nice hatch Zap.
November 9, 201510 yr Please accept my humble apologies for taking the thread, off topic. [/offtopic] So, what are the Plans with the Hatchback? Kind Regards. Edited November 10, 201510 yr by Loyale 2.7 Turbo
November 10, 201510 yr Author I've driven both. They both have their days. I actually like the cvt in the crosstrek. I've heard the 5spd is nutless. Nice hatch Zap. I test drove both, after 2 1/2 years of driving the cvt, I love it. Other peoples' opinions are irrelevant. The hatch will get cleaned up a bit and eventually be sold back to my buddy who I got it from. If he doesn't want it, I'll sell it. Either way, it will be parts for my Jeep after the winter passes and the weather warms up.
November 10, 201510 yr I find the throttle response really obnoxious on the CVT, it's super touchy and jumps off the line and there's no sport mode. Which means if you're hooning around it "upshifts" all the way when you let off, then takes forever to "downshift" again when you want power. I suppose the gas pedal thingy annoys me more that I drive a diesel (not subaru) now and kind have to mash it...
November 13, 201510 yr Author I found this in the glove box today, (the leather box, not the back ground box.
