Yes

I have a Sport to. I have owned it for almost 30 months and I love he very much. I will be sad to see her go when the times comes. They are great cars and suprise a few people, well mine does anyways. Please feel free to 'view my scooby' to give you inspiration.

People that say, just get a Turbo are bonkers. Compared to a turbo, they are slow, but isn't that obvious And also thinking you might get left out if you took it to subaru meets, that is absolute rubbish. I have never been left out, actually quite the opposite.

I have a sport and love it ! Great handling ! Cheap on insurance ! I'm 29 and its under 300 quid fully comp. It might not have the power of a turbo but there is only so fast you can go the roads today. And if a turbo owner is seen nailing it he only get's ragged to bits on here for giving Impreza drivers a bad name. I would get her one.

No: their fuel economy is rubbish and they're pretty asthmatic.
