Yeah, I was thinking more like ten bucks. I just want to see it lean back when I drive, like in the commercials.

I thought the Fast commercials were better than the pimp ze auto and crash commercials, but apparently a lot of you just thought they all sucked.

The 2008 Subaru Impreza will target the Volkswagen Golf GTI, according to a report by AutoExpress magazine. The article indicates that a sedan model will no longer be offered, and selection will be limited to three- and five-door hatchbacks. Entry-level models will get a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated boxer engine with 170 horsepower. A more powerful STi turbocharged model will offer 300 horsepower. According to the report, the car will be quite similar to the Subaru B5-TPH Concept, but with a slightly more typical rear end. The glass hatch, however, remains.

Holy shit that thing is fucking hideous...I don't care how fast it goes or who makes it that is one ugly ass design :barf:

Seriously I would buy a brand new Pontiac Aztec before I would waste money on that thing.

VW's marketing strategy seems eerily similar to Apple's.. so you guys can guess where i stand..

+1 for Subaru.


However it doesn't take much to put down VW. I would take a ford or chevy over a vw.

It may not be turbo, but the 2007 R32 is certainly AWD.
