I can confirm to the Subies in WA and OR. There are so many that you can't keep track of. When I lived there I would see at least 2 or 3 subies every mile on almost every road. The AWD is amlost a nesecity in Portland because of the freazing rain in the winters.

i told him to go to another dealership since its covered by the warranty and mitsu should fix it.

i told him to go to another dealership since its covered by the warranty and mitsu should fix it.I see, yeah I told him the same thing. Hopefully he will get it fixed, it kind of sucks sthat the dealers are giving him a hard time. Either way, I'm still gonna get my evo soon, I'm shooting for yellow and some black wheels. Or possibly, red with bronze wheels.

It seems that it wore out very quickly. He did get the car with about 150 miles on it, and he also got it for 25k. That might explain why he got it so cheap! Also, about 1k miles before it actually gave out, whenever the turbo came online the clutch would begin to slip. Lets say you were in 2nd @ 2k rpms and you went WOT, right at around 3k the clutch would begin to slip even though it was fully engaged. It was acting kinda weird since before it actually went out. I dont personally think it was him wearing out the clutch because I have smoked the clutch on mine so badly that the car wouldnt go anywhere. And I still drive around without any problems and I'm at 30k miles.

I can confirm that. I had to do a job in Wash. Had to drive from Seattle to Chelan and I swear, half the cars on the road were subies and the other half was a mix of everything else.
