[Mr.IncrediblyBored]

Only the best looking Subaru ever created. Some serious performance for the money in the GT trim.

 

[Viper GTS]

Very, very nice. Very good looking, & the GT is damn quick as well.

I've been eyeing the snow coming down & wishing I had a Subaru.



Viper GTS

That's not saying much, the WRX looks like it took a beating from the proverbial ugly stick & ended up with it broken off in the tailpipe. The only thing it has going for it is performance.

:brokenheart:

 

[apac]

Very slick. :beer:

 

[CChaos]

If the interior is up to snuff (looks good in the pics I've seen) and the price isn't outrageous, this thing is going to be one sweet ride.

 

[Viper GTS]

Any idea what the MSRP on this is going to be?

Viper GTS

 

[BigSmooth]

Damn, too many nice cars coming out in the next few years! I'll take one of these to go with my Solstice, thanks.

Tell me about it. My Subaru is in the shop getting a minor fender-bender fixed (other driver's fault). Irony of ironies, I'm supposed to get it back tomorrow afternoon. The snow will probably be gone by then.

No pricing details have yet been announced by Subaru, but speculation is that the GT should have an MSRP in the low '30s.

 

[RagingBITCH]

That is fvcking sexy as hell

[Passions]

Who cares, when you can have 250hp, AWD, and a manual? I think they are almost as good as Toyota and Honda though.

Generally excellent.

 

[StageLeft]

GT would be nice. The 168 version with AWD will be dog-slow though...

One cam would be serving both banks of cylinders right? Or does SOHC mean one cam per head?

One cam per head. 2 cams total. Like an SOHC V6 or V8 or any other twin bank engine.
