Default I'm VERY seriously considering getting one of these for Stacey and me.

The stable could use some practicality, and an AWD wagon seems to fit the bill...

The $7K off sticker is making it insanely tempting, even if I can't really afford it right now...

And I like the way it looks and drives. A lot.

One in black could be good company for the TT, don't 'cha think?


Anyone have any particulars as to why not to move on this?

Default Screaming deals now make that pretty tempting!

Why the heck not?....

Default Its a "Saaburu"

Subaru makes them for Saab/GM. Are they cheaper than the Subaru WRX or Legacy GT?

Default Saab will probably be dead as a car manufacturer in a few years...

Saab has shown only red figures since GM bought it many years ago. These Saabarus are a last desperate try to find new customers outside the usual consumer group

Default I know. If I were into vanity plates, I'd get one that said that.

And yes. With the $7k off, they are.

Default Definitely feels funny to be saying it...

But before I bought the TT, I was seriously considering a WRX wagon and an IS300 wagon.

The Subaru lacked any sophistication, and the IS300 was only availiable in an automatic.

I gave up on the search for a practical but sorta fun car then, but now, it seems to have found me... ;-)

Default At least you're not to the Minivan stage yet.........

Try to avoid that at all costs, though I must confess, at certain stages in life they are incredibly practical....
