Hi

The time has come that due to changes in circumstances the Impreza may have to be replaced.

Has anyone got any info on the forester XT as thinking of it as the only serious replacement, Just wondered on actual top end speeds as i know subaru are conservative throughout the range, obviously i not nieve enough to be expecting too much but out of interest thought i would post.

Top end for the uk forester is around 120-125mph ( mostly due to it's bread-bin like aerodynamics). Accelleration through the gears is very good though, as the TD04L isn't laggy.

I replaced my WRX with one .. no complaints so far ( apart from the cr*p 2 pot fronts on my 2001 JDM model )
