I have a shitbox wagon now that takes a lot of gas. I was thinking the other day, maybe I should get a subaru wagon instead, so if it takes a lot of gas it might as well be fun. I have a second car that takes less fuel anyway.
Should I get a subaru? Is it /what/ approved? I really like how they stick to their values and even their smallest 1.6 engine is a boxer too. I live on the top of a hill so 4 wheel drive is also a strong point and it has a good aftermarket

Seriously, pretty much anything that wasn't made decades ago and isn't hideously large has similar fuel efficiency to others. There's not enough difference to make a difference.

Check out fuelly if you want real life practical fuel consumption numbers that aren't generated by the manufacturer or whatever.

Thanks, I just checked fuelly and it was nice. Problem is that I'm only in the market for decades old cars but things still line up. I think I will get into the subaru meme, it seems like a great platform with many opportunities (unlike my old euro shitbarge)

I would think wagons and non-sti, non-wrxes aren't that much trashed. Pretty much every car is trashed in my price range but I'm a trained monkey so that doesn't bother me

So just throwing this out there, I researched a bit about aftermarket parts and hell, japs are fucking expensive. HKS, JUN, Tomei and such big names almost cost twice as western aftermarket stuff like Brian Crower. Where they always this expensive? I don't know. It might just they want to make some money after the whole JDM craze became a fashion thing. Not to mention these big names are usually don't make parts for old subarus like bugeyes anymore(which is sad bc those are the kinds I have money for, but then again they are already 20 years old), I did find some companies that sell secondhand JDM stuff tho, and even some local businesses which work with Subarus exclusively.
The whole JDM schtick is still feels like a disappointment for me. It's probably different in japan, but here in europe, if you want 3-400 horsepower, you can actually buy a used BMW M3 and be done with the whole business. (I don't want that much, just saying it to give a bit of a wider market perception)
I still plan to buy a subaru because they seem like good deals even in stock for my living conditions. Thanks for reading if you did.

You're like 6 years too late for the /o/ and /jp/ crossover.

I was probably there. /o/ was always fucking boring though and cartalk is about the same on futaba too.
If anything, I'm six years late growing up.
