Was doing a photo shoot with some other Evos and a guy with a Taurus SHO comes over and asks, "What kind of Subarus are these?"

Was it at least the old-school SHO with the Yamaha engine?
Or was it the new POS that weighs 4400 lbs and takes up a lane and a half on the highway?

Every time my father comes to town and takes a ride with me (granted, I have more HP every time he comes) I have to remind him it's a "two liter four banger". He has a 68 El Camino with a big block v8 crate engine. He swears my car is twice as fast as his.

** And something was really bugging me reading through the first 10 pages of this thread - you guys with MRs who get offended when someone refers to your car as an "auto". Can someone explain this to me? I've never looked into the MRs because they only have 2 pedals, but at a glance there's a P,R,N,D and then a lateral movement to go into "manual" mode.

Call me nuts, but the general idea that you can put your car in "drive" and then just hit the gas most definitely implies "automatic". Am I missing something?

I think they mean it in the sense that it's not a normal automatic with a torque converter since it's a dual clutch tranny, but yes, it still "automatically" changes gears unless in manual mode.
