N/A subaru's

[CraigiousIV]

Hi all,

what's everyones take on the non-turbo subaru's? anyone own one?

i'm after my first proper car ( posted on the japanese cars thread ealier this month), and these are one of the cheapest cars to insure.

i've always had a thing for subaru's, my stepdad owns a 2006 sti so i kinda got my love of them from him.

now a WRX or STI would cost me upwards of £10,000 insurance at my age so those are out of the question, however the 1.5 would only set me back £800 insurance with the 2.0R costing around £1500 to insure.

is it worth getting one? or are they a totally different car without the turbo on them?

thanks

Craig

Thanks for the input gents

yeah the main reason i'm looking at getting one is that its the most powerful car i can afford to insure, everything else i like is gonna cost upwards of £4000 insurance!

I'm also hoping to do a bit a fiddling with it, had issues with my back for the last few years and i'm sick of being stuck in the house, driving is the one thing i can comfortably do,so i'm hoping to mess with it and get down to some track days with it!

i'm assuming as with most subaru's that all the parts from other models fit? for example STI brake setups?

thanks again!
