It's funny how people by a Forester, and then slam it, and turn it into a tuned, road spec sleeper performance car. It looks alright. But, it's a Forester, it's taking away what it was designed to do in a way. Imagine doing the same to a WRX. Raising it up and taking it off-road, or just driving it on the street? Would be an interesting look.
Rims are nice, but they are the smaller 17's compared to the 18's. Not even sure if those ones would clear Brembo's - If you wanted to put Brembo's on your Forester. Everything else looks kinda like it's not meant to be on a Forester, while trying to retain what a Forester was originally designed to do - Take the dog to the beach etc etc? Parking in an off-road car park?
The STI's at least are true about what they want to be.
No offense to anyone of course. American Dave - You car looks very nice for what you have done to it, and it's very well thought out. I just see the OEM Subaru one as pictured above as being a little strange.
Perhaps I am talking shit. I guess the
WRC cars go off-road, but perhaps that's a different kettle of fish all together as there pretty much isn't a single OEM component on them at all apart from the chassis.
When i am old and gray, and the Mrs hates the bumpy ride rah rah rah. Tuned by STI Libery is where i will be. That car is still true to it's form.
I've had too many Heinekens.
