    Hey there! Come over to our side! We have power rear windows :p

    But seriously, I recently (Last August) became a Subaru guy and couldn't be happier!

    As long as the proper maintenance was done and the frame isn't rusted, it should be fine. I've seen some real POS bugeyes past 200k... oh wait, he posted about it already ;)

    I had 23k on my wrx (over 3 years), 18k on my sti (2 years), 1k on my 2.5rs (1 year), 50 miles on my svx (1 week), and 500 miles on my rsvx (1 year)... so an average of 8510 miles per subaru lol.

    On most mn lifer bugeyes I've seen the floor boards are either starting to rust or completely rotted through. Same with the subframes and frame connectors. The bad ones have swiss cheese frames too. Yay salt.

    Aside from 4runners, saturns, and a few galvanized frame sports cars, I can't think of many other modern cars built to last. wrx's are definitely towards the bottom of my list of "cars built to last forever" lol
