cryo Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Decided to trade in the wifes 2011 impreza for a 2013 FXT. So far its at about 600 miles and she is loving it. Already got the windows tinted so its not a giant greenhouse and looking for some decent wheels to make it stand out from the crowd. I cant wait to buy a roof "cage" to use for all the camping gear and tow hitch to tow any thing small *jetski's,fishing boat etc* which I haven't had the option for since I sold our truck.... All and all I'm very happy with what the dealer gave us for her impreza *first car I've traded in for over 10+ years* and have NO buyers remorse. The only downfall is its already got a appt at the body shop because someone decided they wanted to scrape their bumper down the passenger side front door about 2 weeks after we brought it home. Just figured I'd post a picture or two.

blongo804 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Sweet ride! Dare I say... Slap a stage 1 tune on it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryo Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 It will stay stock *ecu wise* until the warranty is up most likely since its the wifes car. She says its got enough power now although I would like to get the crummy stock tune off of it for safety. They have done some interesting things to the 08+ ecu's to watch flash tracking etc from what I have seen and its not worth losing the warranty on a vehicle that she doesn't drive very aggressive to begin with. Its the "spirited suv" as she calls it. oh and I now notice I cant seem to spell forester correct in the thread title...

Spec B Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 My wife had a 2009 FXT before getting a Tribeca - she loved it. Handled pretty well for a small crossover. It was unfortunately the only suby we ever had a major mechanical problem with. The automatic transmission died after 2 years (mainly of commuting to work and taking our kids to school). The suby tech said he had never seen the problem before. It was probably just a one off. Enjoy the new ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
