So, instead of the mini... how about a Vishnu tuned Forester XT?

I don't find the WRX sleek either 
. But I don't find it a lifted box-hearse either . To each his own, but to my eye, the Mini is far nicer looking (though losing the AWD sucks).

Kind of like PUGS or Bulldogs they're pretty ugly too but people love 'em. What is there to say. Personally I love the Forester, an STi Forester would be hawt!!! Now let me sit here and dream about an STi wagon.

Turned around, went home. Checked oil... saw that I was over 3 quarts low... Added oil. The nock didnt go away. I threw a rod.

nobody's perfect. The real test is what they do about the mistake.
Stevens Creek would say F you and screw you over. Lately Carlsen the same. Hopefully Santa Cruz will do what they've shown their charecter to be...fix or replace. admit the mistake.
we'll see.

A Forester XT with a few Sti parts is my dream stealth ride.
A nice ECUTEC'ed tune and you are rolling with 350 crank hp.
I would rather have it auto as well.
Cheers

Why don't you just hand the Forrester right over to the dealership, considering how many STi's Bay Area dealerships have with blown motors from Vishnu??
