I looked all day yday at cars I wanted...however my budget wasnt floating my boat at all! I really want a 350z but to get a semi-decent one the money was just too much!
PLus not sure if i wanted to get a loan out as i change my cars too often!
Scouted autotrader for local cars around the same money as my passat...and hmm....subaru!
Bought it this morn pick up tues!
Its the last of the classics with eibach springs, full stainless system(sounds like thunder) and ppp ecu so about 245bhp!
Its not to keep forever probs as usual 6-8 months but a bit more fun that the passat...25mpg ftl but 0-60 in 5.2 FTW

rather unexpected!
Like these shape ones a lot - just not so keen on the wagon!
Nice one though mate - tad different to the passat!

was a major spur of the moment purchase! just fed up of the diesel passat wanted something with power! means I can not worry about having a loan or finance tieing me down just yet too!

Im actually dead excited about picking it up on tues! i didnt get to test drive as not insured to drive others so i was only a co-pilot!

Best i could ever get out of my 320 beast was 5 and that was near killing the clutch..i'd say 6 dead is reality if it was timed.Which is still quick.
