I just bought mine at the beginning of Feb 2013 and love it. I've always liked Subis, driven a number of them, but never owned, til now! Thanks to Auto World in Fremont, CA for making the deal happen. It had 201k on it, but alot of recent work done before hitting the lot!
I have been a big fan of good looking wagons, since my days of racing autocross Datsun 510s. But I never owned a 510wagon. My user name comes from those days, Subaru-waGoon.
