G'day fellow rexers... my son has decided he wants to move up from the Excel, spend is limited to around $6-7k. Obviously this puts him on the outer as far as any Subaru badge is concerned, 'cept maybe an RS Lib or the rare Vortex
![]() Carsales and other sites regularly checked, this one caught his eye and didn't seem too bad at 1st glance but I'm thinking the claim to running 11's maybe a tad far fetched. Any other opinions on this, based on the stated mods? Anyways, if anyone on here has, or knows someone who has a manual factory turbo car which fits the $ frame & needs a new home, shoot me a PM or reply here. All drivetrains considered, but AWD is the obvious preference.

If he is also interested mayb a VL. Easier to find parts for and a lot cheaper for parts if things go wrong.

My brother just sold his R8, bought a cheap (like 3K or something) 626 turbo as a run around til his new car arrives and its already costing him money! Alright if you want a project car or have spare cash lying around but most young people probably dont. |
