There's so much in this post that I've always suspected...
Anyway how could I hate on a Subaru, when I'm driving a Chrysler
Sebring, with the golden alloy's and everything, fit for a pimp, when it
was new. It's not the car I really wanted it was the car that I could
afford when my SAAB 900se decided to throw a rod. On the other hand it
is a convertible, though the demographic of "chicks"* I could reasonably
pick up with it means I'll be sleeping alone a lot.
*Scare quotes for more reasons than I usually like to think about.

I know there are some people who hate on Subarus, but this one seems
to be mechanically solid, it was relatively cheap (same out the door
as State Farm paid me for damage to the Screaming Buttweasel), and I
talked the dealer (who specializes in used Subarus) into throwing in a
set of alloy rims for me to mount track tires on for about $80).
I figure that if I get a couple of years out of it, I'll be happy.
They get decent mileage, it seems pretty fun to drive and I'd like to
get some seat time at the track in an AWD car, because I'd like to
expand my skill set.
Some guys are accused of buying cars with big V-8 as a means of
compensation, maybe with this car I'm compensating for my lack of a
vagina. Now I need to track down a rainbow racing stripe for it.
note to Nicole: I'm only joking about the rainbow racing stripe.
