Whatever. I was just saying they'd be pretty hairy in the rain even just at street speeds. Because y'know, water.
I'm just a huge fan of not getting wrapped around shit that's sticking up out of the ground is all.

Sounds pretty paranoic to me.

Whatever happened to Rod?

I think Ascona finally found him

Ascona and Pennz got to him because witness protection could.

RIP ROD/The Edge

They've been out for a couple years now, eh? I think I've seen eight to 10 maybe. I'd.........just.......... rather an S2.

I see bunches of them in Colorado. Then again, it wouldn't surprise me if we have one of the higher Subaru per capita ratios in the country.

Keep the RPMS down low where it's not much better than a civic, youll be fine.

I spent a lot of time in an AP2 S2000:




Twitchiest, snap happy car i've ever driven. It's a hair raising experience when you push it. But if you drive like a normal human being, a perfectly fine daily driver.

Found an article from last year saying Aus was the 3rd largest market for the FT86, with almost 7,000 sales here to the US (in second) on 21,000. Which sounds like it's doing better over there, until you remember that annually more F150s are sold in the US than our entire vehicle market.

However, the real reason it's popular here is because we don't have access to the Camaro and Mustang. Even when the Mustang is officially sold here next year, it is likely to be twice the price of the FT86. For similar money I'd take the V8 Mustang every time...

I'm surprised UK sales are so poor. They need a hybrid model, I guess.

I watch a few different UK car shows and it seems like a pain in the ass to own a car there. In all honesty, they have a huge Gray Market for used Japanese cars, it would be more affordable to get an S15 Silvia, than a new GT86.

Of corse it would - same here. But a lot of S15s have hit the market as their owners switch to the Toyota, since it's the closest new car in spirit, power and weight to the S15 since that went out of production.
