Come on over!

Justice has been served.

I'd buy this in a heartbeat if it was semi local. MT, you might be able to talk the guy into meeting you someplace halfway. http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1025587 Some further info about the car. http://www.saabhistory.com/1997/09/01/limited-production-1998-saab-9000-cse-blends-225-hp-turbo-performance-with-practical-utility/

Yes, but think of the professional athletic teams. We needs them brothers! They can stay!

Chicks that drive trucks are hot, too!

If you say so, buddy. I wish you the best of luck in your search.

Why do you hate her? Either A: Stop being a cheap ass and buy her a decent, safe, reliable car. Or, B: Don't buy her anything until the spring/summer, after she has more experience, after winter. It's not like she magically "needs" a car the day she turns 16, right?

Casper, can we merge this with the larger original thread to keep it easier to search for future information, please?

Is this for your daughter, MT?

Many of us vape. I haven't had a cigarette since October 7, 2013. 1 to 1.5 packs per day for 26 years. Don't miss it one bit, and feel ten years younger. I've saved a literal shit ton of money, too.

Probably the term I should have used is, overdrive torque converter clutch lockup, not actually dropping down a gear.

The CVT does have some things going for it, MPG especially...but the 3.6 H6 with the 5EAT doesn't even come out of overdrive on the steepest mountains of WV with the cruise set at 75MPH. The MPG sure does suffer for it though. Thankfully, it just needs regular gas.

I'm not sure what specific model Subaru you have, but in "limited traction" situations such as snow and ice, it is actually specified to turn traction control off. My car, with VDC, has the ability to turn off traction control, while still maintaining the other features, ESC, ABS, etc. Personally, I'm a fan of ABS on all conditions. The early Subaru ABS was very over sensitive, and there is an easy mod to disable it. Today's Subarus are much improved. You may think you're better, but in all actuality, you're not.

Seriously, I'm not trying to brag or boast, but there's not much I don't know about a Subaru, model years 1993-present. I own #8 and #9 now, and I've had almost all varieties except for the Outback and Tribeca. If you've got a question, fire away.

Absolutely true, but in the Subaru world, the 5EAT was as highly regarded as the six speed standard transmission in the STi(not to be confused with the six speed transmission that now comes in the WRX). The 5EAT was the turbo 400 from Japan. It's 500 whp stout, and has almost a zero problem record for many, many years. It was a sad day, and there were many tears of ATF fluid shed when everyone heard it was gone.

Speaking of the six cylinder(specifically the Legacy), two ways that I'm not a fan of the CVT is it really doesn't allow the full engine power to be put to the wheels from a dead stop, and the front biased AWD system. I own a 2013 3.6R, and while not a "fast" car by definition...it does get up and go pretty quick. 0-60 times in the low six seconds, tested on multiple occasions. The new 3.6 with a CVT is a full second slower(tested by magazines), and I can confirm from my own test drives...it doesn't have nearly the "jump" off the line. Also, I'm not a fan of the front biased AWD system that the CVT uses. Again, going back to my 2013 3.6R with the 5EAT, my system is a 45:55 VTD(Variable Torque Distribution). On curvy roads, pushing the car, it really shines. There is no typical FWD "plow". The Subaru CVT is a 60:40 split of the same system. While I've not personally had the opportunity to drive one spirited through curves, I have read reports where it doesn't feel as "sporty".

Subaru CVT C-30 is $12 per quart.

Just to clear up a few things: #1. The "belt" in a Suabru CVT is a very heavy mesh chain. I have never heard of any breaking. Here is a google picture search for reference. https://www.google.com/search?q=subaru+cvt+belt&client=firefox-a&hs=EBR&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=sb&tbm=isch&imgil=qLAPEXkUo6p8HM%253A%253BHyMJSj4pRKxt7M%253Bhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.rimrocksubaru.com%25252Fsubaru-lineartronic-continuously-variable-transmission-billings-montana.htm&source=iu&pf=m&fir=qLAPEXkUo6p8HM%253A%252CHyMJSj4pRKxt7M%252C_&usg=__B_TT9_OmhoVYyu_TL-Vlw3fOId0%3D&biw=1920&bih=943&ved=0CFQQyjc&ei=FZFsVIXDGomAygTjmoLQCQ#facrc=_&imgdii=_&imgrc=qLAPEXkUo6p8HM%253A%3BHyMJSj4pRKxt7M%3Bhttps%253A%252F%252Fs3.amazonaws.com%252F3gengagement.dealers%252Frimrock-subaru%252Fcustom-pages%252Fengineering%252Frimrock_subaru-cvt-header.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.rimrocksubaru.com%252Fsubaru-lineartronic-continuously-variable-transmission-billings-montana.htm%3B600%3B300 #2. NA four cylinder Subaru uses a Lineartronic CVT. Turbo four cylinder(WRX and Forester), and the 3.6 six cylinder uses a High Torque CVT. The main difference between the two is actually the strength of the chain.

Truth. It sure is funny though!

Yes, PP haS a very simple app. All I need is your phone number or email address. If we had compatible phones, we could even "bump".

No, you send first. I asked first. Why not just use Paypal?
