C_randyjones Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 I thnk the Outback is a great care for any outdoor enthusiast, man or women. I've seen a lot of old men and women driving various sports cars (Porche!). I dont think it is wimpy or feminine, and the XT is anything but tame. Besides, just remember this, only real men can wear pink and get away with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Charlie Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 Soccer Moms drive minivans or SUV's... not wagons according to SOA's position on the 08 Legacy... And SOA is the best when it comes to reading the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjay1089 Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 I think the OBXT still looks sorta mean. I have to say though, I the FJ. Just looked at one a couple days ago and they're awesome. I saw the '08 Outback today on the highway (isn't it kind of early) and they look a lot nicer than the previous version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Charlie Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 sorry bro, ur girl is right. OBXT is old people car. So is LGT wagon. Oscar This from a kid with a slushbox! It doesn't make any sense to buy the horses and then hide them behind an automatic- I refuse to drive by committee. My wagon weighs only 55 pounds more than a sedan, and I'd imagine there's even less of a difference when you weigh a sedan with an automaic. Other than that, what? A different roofline, certainly, but nothing old, as such. Unless by old you mean wanting a trunk that actually holds stuff. I was able to load a full size upright freezer- and close the liftgate. It also keeps the dogs from shedding on the seats. My biggest problem with it is that it doesn't look old. The first thing I did when I got it home was lose the "2.5 GT" off the tail. I want a car that looks like my grandmother knitted it- no hood scoop (FMIC), raised roof rails, a rear air deflector and 16" wheels. I can already pass for a Outback, but it could look a lot more dowdy. That'd be aewsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukeTrout Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Yes, you have to turn in your testicles when you pick one up at the dealer. Here's the plan: buy the OBXT, let your gf drive it, she likes it, becomes a lesbian, but in the transition phase you get to have some threesomes! Can we finally, PLEASE, dump these stupid stereotypes?! Ich bin echt viel netter, wenn ich nuechtern bin. Echt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJack Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I saw a black one with black tinted windows that looked awesome the other day.. i would have rocked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlJNgmail.com Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Yeah so about the young thing...I'm 22, and a dude, and I bought a black xt (thats gonna get its windows ceramic tinted black). And yes its a manual, and yes I still impress the hell out of people when it rockets down the road, yet I constantly get the lesbian and mom-mobile comments. Oh and on the FJ, that thing is sweet. Went offroading in one when I had to park the outback due to too much rockiness, and it was more than impressive even with the crap tires it came with.

Boostjunkie Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Paul (boostjunkie) asked if my OBXT was the wife's! I only asked than because of the pair of lady's shoes I pulled out of the back and the hair claw clip on the e-brake handle . Heck, I daily drive a 2.5i OB... Champagne Gold no less!

mmarton Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 People buy SUVs because they think they're cool, but SUVs are just glorified, porky station wagons. As far as the Outback is concerned, there is the "Lesbaru" image to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vader1 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have taken my Outback for several Home Depot runs and get strange looks from guys that see me securing lumber to the roof rack or stuffing large items in the back. They look at me like "Why don't you get a truck?" My answers would be, 0-60 in less than six seconds, 50% better milage than their trucks, and automatics are for sissy's. Hows that for their manly trucks? But the main reason is I drive what I like, not what someone else thinks I should like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vader1 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 "Lesbaru" HAHAHA! My brother used to call them "Stationfaggons" until he drove mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrxdan2002 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 my 05 frontier get better gas mileage than the our OBXT, then again it is only the 4cyl and can not get out of it's own way. Though I love turbo subarus the only one i could see my self driving daily would be an 06 wrx sti limited. I have always driven a small pick up and the wife gets the sporty car, which i tend to modify for my own pleasure even though I only drive the car like 1000mi a year. Hmm seams like a waste when i put it that way. My wife probley does not care about downpipes upipes & stage 2. Though just like me she was addicted to the exhaust note of the old wrx.

dvon1981 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 outbacks are def chick cars, but if you like it still get it. the general perception though is that its kinda a mom car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyjo Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I've got an OBXT, and the thing is a freaking animal. Sit your girlfriend down in the passenger seat, and just stomp on it... when you hit ~ 120 a few seconds later, you can let your foot off a little, and she'll realize that it's not a grandma' car I think some of the colors are sort of old personish.. but if you go black on black, and tint it a bit, it's super-stealth that.. .or put some massive lights on the roof rack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
