Funny how a kid who could stare at pictures of Ferrari Mondials and daydream of life on the Cote d'Azur would also think an Alpine White Subaru Wagon with painted steel wagon wheels was just as cool in a different way.

I've never seen a Turbo, but my uncle's second (I think it came before the Lynx, anyway) car was one of these at the opposite end - absolute base wagon, red, the one front-wheel-drive wagon known to mankind.

Fun Fact: apparently, the EA engines handle boost pretty well. If you read up on it, you'll find that you can turn it up to something like 14psi.

Also, dare we speak of the SVX?

I remember going to Colorado most recently (in 2000) and thinking to myself "So this is how Subaru is still in business."

I can't think of any other marque with such distinct geographical delineations (ie, brands you see TONS of in one place, but not in another place)

Again, people who buy non-WRX Subarus, as a group, tend to buy them for pragmatic reasons. The WRX and STi begin to approach toy status, but there are still worse powerful cars to find yourself with in a snowstorm.

Another college student I knew had a '84 sedan that had the carburetor held on with wooden blocks and C-clamps.

I've seen one really old Subaru ever, a mid-70s wagon. A neighbor of mine on college had it, and I recall it having Arizona plates, which explains a lot. I'm sure by the time he graduated, the car was reduced to red powder. It was a really bizarre, hideous car. I coveted it.

It's fuel efficient, it's got 4wd, and it's cheap!
