Well it finally arrived and im stoked to have it in the driveway ( carpark ) finally! I know its not a Nissan but its awesome nevertheless.

Its a great drive, plenty of power and torque - 6 speed manual is great. its got heaps of room and will seat 4 adults comfortably.

Power delivery is linear, you can feel the urge around 3k and it really gets busy after that up to 7k. 4pot brembos have plenty of assist, fade is negligible, great pedal feel.

It'll be on its way to Oz ( fingers crossed without a hitch ) next year so for this year im just going to enjoy it.

The Fonz can also dust many cars 3 times the price - its no slouch. It'll see 0-100 in 5 or less seconds and carry the dog and all the gear for a camping trip, too. :laugh: :laugh:

Hope you like it as much as i do!

I like its allround appeal. Its popular in Oz too afaik, so i shouldnt have too much trouble finding a home for it when the time comes.

Unfortunately for Oz, subaru decided not to bring this car in, so the only way to get your hands on one is via private import which i will be doing.

Depending on when that is and what my situation is, I'd be interested in giving it a good home.

I've been trying to work out how to afford a turbo Forester for a few months now.

Alan, the car will be in Oz around this time next year. I have to make sure it gets there safely for whoever wants to have it next.

Its not the prettiest car around i agree but from the drivers seat that doesnt matter, does it? Its a wolf in sheep's clothing...with pink stickers! ;)

We will see. Its too early to tell but the early bird gets the proverbial.

This car will be 1 of only 8 cars in the country next year - mine and another member of this board are 7 and 8.

I like those numbers. ;)

did you buy yourself a cat-back? Make sure a front strut brace is one of your first mods too.

Roger that. I was checking out cusco braces yesterday - around 20,000 yen>?

I wonder how much the Sti brace is...

It needs more burble Brian - Its too quiet for me and it could use more poke.

Hows yours coming along?? Youve taken delivery right?

    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
