I don't quite mean it that way, I am a huge WRC fan and have lots of respect for Subies. And they are reliable... but, I've driven a few in anger, and the interior is "meh" at best, the feel when closing a door is kinda flimsy, I don't see the car aging well inside (the mechanicals are another story). Looks wise, I'm also not in love with the last 3 iterations of the WRX... ;-( But respect where it's due, they are good cars !
AWD in FL ? Ever driven in a FL rainstorm where you cannot see the road at 10 mph ??? No, really, I meant I don't want FWD, so RWD or AWD is OK.... for instance Audis would have to be AWD since there are no RWD. But I prefer RWD overall.
You guys are redressing the scales towards BMW, 330 or something. I've heard the same from my german car mechanic but I suspected him of being partial since he sends his kids to college based on my 1973 2002 repairs ! ;-) OK, I'll drop the Audi idea for now, nobody even tried to come to its rescue, and look for 330s. 325s might be a letdown... Thanks (and keep it going if you got something original)
