i'm not gonna say subaru couldn't use a hand, but i refuse to believe i should thank toyota for the WRX's existance.

this is subaru we're talking about... not the big 3.

Nah, Subaru would exist, but it's future would be shaky. We can thank Toyota for their partnership and help, but it's not like they were the only way to survive.

But I don't mind the partnership, I think it'll do Subaru some good. And they can finally share the american plant with someone and get it used, it's expensive to pay for unused space in a building that huge.

The first sentence is a bit sensationalist. I like the liberal use of "In the long run" throughout the article. That one you linked to was just pure baloney though.

I don't even think the new Legacy is that attractive.

I think the lack of the Legacy Wagon isn't attractive, it's repulsive. >_<

I heartily agree with the new front bumper--and hence my point. The unattractive new bumper looks like a supermodel compared to the imprezas'.

Looks like my sister's Corolla.
