Because that is my favorite perormance vehicle. I like 4WD cars with Turbos, and guess what the Subaru is? I would like to drive a Subaru, but around here there are none, except for those owned by snowbirds migrating down here for the winter. Don't forget that I don't make all that much money, and paying for fuel is a big bad chunk of the wallet in a 4WD car. I can get by with the Cavalier, because the monthly payments are easy enough, and so is the fuel economy.

i was told by an old and wise friend of mine: never, EVER, buy a Saab. You have to import any parts you get for it directly from Sweden

You do drive with snow tires in the winter right? All Seasons suck in all seasons.

Personally, I would have an STi as the performance car and an Outback as a daily driver.

I just noticed today that the Cavalier's steering is 2.5 turns lock to lock. Makes it easier to manuveur through the perils of the bargain mart parking lot. The Civic always gave me a workout with rapidly turning the steering wheel like the rudder of a large sailing vessel.
