Hello, As some of you may know I sold my 96 Legacy Outback with the ongoing battle of car cancer (rust) and that car being a salvage title and being previous wrecked it was kinda bad! It was a mistake I bought it but it was cheap :D anyways after watching most of the subarus i've looked at we're rusted and not very nice, then I looked at some Foz's mainly XT's ;) Nothing like a turbo'd wagon/suv :D but most we're abused one I called about was at a shady dealer and the guy said it had all the stuff non normall stuff replaced ;( then looked at a saab 9-2X saabaru and it was kinda small, I ended up settling on a 2004 Honda Element EX 4WD with 126K and Drove away with it for 7,000$ cash from a private owner very nice guy just selling to buy an Acura MDX for the Family. And my hope is to pick up a subaru at some point as a project and keep this a daily so I could make the Subie madd :)

anyways this is Ellie the 04 Element EX 4WD 126K, paid 7,000$ I'm getting the stuff to do the maintenance at the millage I've got 4QT's of OEM HONDA ATF, OEM Power steering Fluid, OEM Brake Fluid, OEM Honda oil filter, and 5W-20 Oil, I'm gonna order a Cabin air filter, NGK OEM Spark plugs, OEM Honda Trans filter, and also gonna flush the coolant this spring.

Mods..
U-Haul Hitch Class 3
Honda OEM Bug Guard
Sticker'd Rear Hatch
LED Rear Lights!
eBay rain guards

Mods in Progress Projector Headlights TRS H1 Mini's, HID's, HD Grille mod, eBay Rain Guards, and OEM Style Fog lights, and LED Angel eyes

cool dude. congrats on the new car. Glad your still on here. I looked at your car alot when I first got mine cuz whenever I googled Subaru Outback Spruce Pearl 1996 BG9 I would always stumble on your build thread here @SLI. True Story.

thanks :) Yes, I love this forum! I'm on a computer one, and a few other ones for hobbys and none of them have been as wonderful as SLI <3 Well hopefully someday this year i'll have saved up some cash to get mod wagon Subaru again so stay tuned :) do you have a thread of your ride? i'd love to see it

I always liked the suicide doors on these! It is just like a truck and it would be easier to load large objects in through the side.
