2006 Subaru Legacy GT 6-speed manual. Best car I've ever owned. My current GTI is my second favorite owned car.
Lost 1HP due to air lossStupid leaf!!!
I completely agree with fun over speed. Many cars today have so little sensation of speed you have to go stupid fast for it to give you the sensation of speed/involvement.Just moved to a new 19 SE today from a 2011 stg3 S4. I've missed all my previous gti's. So glad I did it. S4 was stupid fast but not nearly as much fun to drive.View attachment 171576View attachment 171576
Another old one from a decade ago.
I factory-ordered that car exactly as I wanted it. Pepper White, no sunroof, body kit, and otherwise pretty loaded. The look was awesome - check out how the roof seems to float above the windows. Added 17" BBS LM's & H&R cup kit. Loved it - mostly. What was it lacking? Steering feel. ANY steering feel. It was like driving a motorboat. It's a crying shame that you can't get a Mini with a manual steering rack. Instead you just get a drastically over-boosted electric disaster. Probably better by now, but was totally numb back then.

There is some overlap in there. At one I owned and actively drove eight separate cars throughout the week. Now with kids we have only four: Tacoma, Mini, GTi, and the Alltrack
Probably not my smartest move ever.
That's about as mixed up as my own automotive history.
I've still got too many cars, but I sold the Infiniti G20T to make room for the Golf. Not my smartest move ever, but it went to the right person at the right price for them, so I guess it's okay.
It wasn't much to look at, and was my younger brother's college car, but damned if it wasn't driving nirvana.

the automatic Sentra driving nirvana? Never driven one, just sounds surprising. Or did they make a manual?
That's impressive that you could remember all of that.
