Looks mint Jim. Even the standard rust spot isn't as bad as all the other ones.

You got any plans to make it turn real good like the rest of your fleet?

 
Wow, that thing looks clean!

I want mine repainted too, if you've got any info to help me out I'll gladly hear it

FWD isn't horrible, its just less fun to play in (read: to snow-dorifto in empty lots)

I'm not speaking for Jim, but as a daily-driver, I can't see him putting too much money into it.

 
I paid a little more than maybe I should have but it is really a cream puff. You can tell the type of person who owned it when the new muffler and battery are OEM from the dealer. 4 brand new tires. The motor is quiter than my 08 fozzy. and believe it or not it goes much better than I expected for being almost 1 liter smaller than my forester. The e-brake works great and it corners pretty flat. When you drive it, it drives like it only has 50k miles. No rattles or anything.

 
so it must be a 1.8L and i am running 16" rims with 195/65/16's on mine right now with no rubbing and i can slide my fingers between the strut and tire just fine

 
FWD can do anything an AWD can except awd cookies. just got to know what you are doing

cant just throw it into the corners and power it out, you actually have to DRIVE the car.

Dark blue would be sexy. Interior WRX swap, Some KYBs and Cobb springs....Do It!

I have a a set of Winter Force snows on my car if you are interested. 205-55-16 PM if interested and you find some 16" wheels. Just put them on in Dec. New from Tire Rack.

 
Thanks guys. Yes 1.8L just got a set of Hankook I=Pike for it on all for corners. I will be looking in the spring for a set of wheels & tires. nothing fancy just some 14" or 15" I will need a rear seat bottom also this spring as this one has a dog chew hole in it. I will be putting some miles on it before any mods. But it will be a fun and inexpensive project car for me and the boys.

You're going to reseat the bottom you say?

I've been looking online for padding and I can't find any at a reasonable price.

 
Thanks, but it's my front seats that need it, and I don't know if it would be worth tearing apart the bottom to reuse the foam.
