It's all good. Maybe the new Imprezas will help out. Especially with that corny trade-in program they got goin on. Whatever it takes I guess.

I live in a cold climate and that is why the Tribeca is on my shopping list. I only wish that Subaru would have offered an optional rear LSD as that would make the Tribeca's AWD system that much more effective. As for the South-West, my leased Audi A6 Quattro saved my ass late last February, when I got caught in a freak winter snow storm at about 8,000 feet in northern Arizona, coming back from the Grand Canyon.

Yes it is. I've seen it and the new style really grows on you. Also the 2008 WRX doors have proper window frames. Lack of leather seats is about my only concern.

BECAUSE THEIR CARS ARE UGLY AS SIN!

Seriously, when's the last time a subaru past you and you though, wow, what a fine piece of automobile that is.

That's right...

Beauty is only skin deep and it is in the eye of the beholder. Who else makes cars with AWD standard on all models and whose engines are always in the inherently balanced H configuration?
