Four Banger posted:What's that thing you have behind the rear seats?? Behind the seats is the cargo cover? In the back seats is an extra rear door I also picked up. I bought it with a bad engine, got screwed by a junkyard on the second engine and then got lucky with that engine thats in the back. It now sounds like it will make it to 300k easily, have about 180k on both the car and engine and its solid.

Terrible Robot posted:Still ridiculous amounts of fun on backroads. I have been super impressed with the torque the 2.5 makes along with the surprisingly good handling for a "big" car. Its seriously a blast to drive. I need to fix a couple of little things and then take it off road and get it covered in mud.

The new Forester seems more like an SUV and they make my old one look small. The old ones are definitely more of a wagon than a SUV. Got some new snows on mine the other day then took it into the woods.

You lucky bastard, we were supposed to get snow this week and I just got new snow tires for mine but it turned into rain. Stupid weather, I wanted to do some awd donuts.

Yea New England is like that too. I walked out of a store one time and thought somehow someone put dogs in my car but it was just the same color Forester as mine. Kastein and I also drive matching Foresters.

Left Ventricle posted:Beater wagon incoming. Nice, this is what I want if anything ever happens to my Subaru. Is it the 3.3? My mom had a 1990 sedan with that engine and it ran forever with minimal care. The only reason she got rid of it is because it got stolen and the people that took it smoked crack in it, broke the front seat so that it would recline and put big speakers on the rear deck. She cried when she saw it since she had it for like 10 years and my sister and I grew up with that car.

Yea we were wondering why they stole her car cause it was so old and a Buick but the cops said the same thing about how easy they are to steal. I loved that engine, it has 160hp and it was faster than the 1990 Z24 3.1 I had at the time which was 130 or 140hp or something like that.
