This is for non-Subaru related topics. Keep it realistic please.

The Mazda 3, Ford Focus, and Volvo S40 are all on the same platform as best I understand.

Good shit Steve. You got a manual right? I beat the autos senseless at the Rev-It-Up Challenge last year and they're dogs.

I wish I could get a new car that I wouldn't have to really worry about, then I could screw around with my old ones at my own leisure.

That's the idea, Mike. Of course it's a 5-speed (which is very popular with this car apparently). It's the Euro Focus platform, which they're not selling here. It really is a decent drive, but the Legacy in good shape would still beat it in ride quality and handling.

Midnight in a Perfect World on Amazon or order anywhere. The first book in a quartet chronicling the rise of a man from angry criminal to philanthropist. Midnight... is a distopic noirish novel featuring 'Duchess', a modified 1990 Subaru Legacy wagon.
