I used to love the Subaru service experience. But I HATED paying for the Subaru service experience. Pretty freaking telling that servicing a Korean turbo diesel AWD is gonna be cheaper than a Japanese 4 cylinder. Imagine when I finally get a WRX its just gonna be me pulling up, handing over the key then pulling my pants down and bending over for them.

That's the boxer motor with two head gaskets for ya. But it'll be a good car, not point getting something so nice and not looking after it

OH totally! I've been bitten by old neglected subarus in the past. And yes, head-gaskets haha. The WRX will be tucked into bed and kissed tenderly on the hood scoop every night.
