Well first time I get a car for a week to tool around in. A subaru outback, perfect for winter

aw damn, and here i was getting all excited over seeing a new caddy

 

Actually we were suppose to get a CTS, not sure why it was cancelled.

 

is that car exciting at all???

 

Exciting? I wouldn't call it Exciting, good yes, Exciting...... no.

 

Bite me Fred
And James, dude, you need to expand your horizons.

I love that car!!! Mom is on her 3rd one, I have enjoyed each and every one of them.

Exciting may not come in the form of hunting down and killing Ferrari's, but put a serious set of ice and snow tiires on it and throw it out into the cold with 2 feet of unplowed snow on the roads and exciting is one of the best words to describe it.

The Subaru AWD system is in my mind just about the best AWD system on the planet. I have driven up hill on a dirt road in snow so deep I was "plowing" it up to the height of the headlights, and the amazing thing is it just did it. I find this car to be very exciting if you have the environment that represents a proper challenge to its capabilities.

I will also admit, although exciting does not come to mind in summer driving, I will say with performance Bridgestone RE950s I have on Mom's, the silly thing handles really well for a wagon.

Say what you guys will, but from my point of view, the Outback has the potential to be a very exciting vehicle.

 

probably because gm is cutting all their ad budget:

It was also very exciting to use as a base camp for 5 days for F1 at Indy.

 

Congrats James, that's very cool.

Now you need them to pony up and give you something like an STi for a year long review.

 

Is yours?
