A_A_ron Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I'm still trying to decide between an 18' WRX and a 17' GTI. That is a tough choice if you aren't dedicated to the boxer engine. Build Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgoodhue Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I would pick the WRX for its AWD. Long term, I would pick the Subaru as well, I don't trust VW after my experience with my ex's. I read the GTI respond better to engine mods, but FWD..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tocinoman25 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I have an 08 LGT and wifey has 11 legacy. We were thinking of waiting for the Ascend but being 1st gen its scary to see what recalls will be. Leaning towards Mazda CX9 or even a Yukon depending if she is comfy with its size. Definitely wanting that 3rd row. My 08 becomes racecar status and 11 becomes my daily. Thats if and when baby #2 happens.

Golferdude1087 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Hmm. Any links on tunes, etc? It seemed to me the engine was already pushing near the max, with the fancy turbo, etc..Stillen has an intake and exhaust and visconti has a tune. I don't trust visconti at all but combine the two with a car that is stock putting 380 wheel, it'll move. But it's to new to know how much power the car can actually handle Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you considered a highlander? Updated V6 usable 3rd row decent ride. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBPeik Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 I do not plan on a "next" car. I will buy another and another and another until I have all that I want. This may take a while but I think it is a worthy goal. My someday I will be done with it thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk The experts seem to love the model 3, but it gets pricey with options. I guess there will be a ludicrous mode too. http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/reviews/exclusive-tesla-model-3-first-drive-review/ar-AAoZTWy?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartanntp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can and driver had a pretty good review of the 7 passenger SUVs recently and stated, "The CX9 is the reason to stop having kids at 1", aka. It's just too small for 2+ kids. I drove the new Highlander, it felt like a good car. And is the most popular minivan alternative in my area. Interior quality and layout was awesome. Rest of it was pretty meh. But, I guess what should I expect with 7 passenger cars? My OBXT build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadvw Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Model 3 with only a center-of-dash speedo (no gauges for the driver) is just too much "We want to replace you, just as soon as we can figure it out" attitude for my liking..

chocmlk Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 My wife really likes my 2011 LGT, she initially said that eventually she wouldn't mind taking the Legacy from me and letting me buy a newer model STi. Now after driving my Legacy a few more times she says that she wants a newer model of Legacy that has an automatic transmission, and "it doesn't need to have a turbo"...

They would never dream of making a car that outshines the ~ G O L D E N B O Y ~ flat-4 turbo. A couple turbos on the H6 would make it a legit Porsche fighter engine lmao.
