Hi. I'm porcuine73 from Buffalo, NY. I am a Subaru fanatic and active on several Subaru Forums. My current Subaru stable and specs are listed below. The obvious missing elements are a turbo model with manual transmission! Hm...an Outback XT MT would fit the bill perfectly. I also have Baja envy; maybe Subaru will soon make another vehicle like the Baja.
