I have been seriously considering a Subaru Forester 2.5XT. A little more stealth, a lot more utility, and a whole lot of performance potential. I just read a post in nasioc the other day, where a guy posted a 13.9 1/4 run in a 5spd version. The only mod I believe was that he had removed the plastic air intake diffuser horn. Another guy also also running a 5spd Xt ran a 13.7 with minimal mods. I have been thinking wagons lately, so maybe a WRX wagon would be another option.

On a totally different planet I have also been considering just buying a Jeep Rubicon. I was looking at them when I bought my Evo, and other than terrible gas mileage, I really like them a lot.

I am currently at a crossroads and I just hate shelling out for winter tires followed by a new set of summer tires this spring. Maybe its time for a change....... .

Does anyone know about the future of the rx8? I heard a rumor it may be getting a turbo.

I'd go with STi, yeah yeah there's the whole Evo vs. STi rivalry stuff, you dont wanna become a traitor by getting a "slowbaru", but you gotta admit, it's a damn good car. Mmm...there's just something about japanese imports, I love them...

RSX, but what I really want is a Datsun 510 (and since we're wishing a pony too)
