SAABARU is coming!
http://www.automobilemag.com/news/news_22_1/
The automobile market is finally listening to car enthusiasts. It's listening so much all of sudden, that we're getting 4 new cars in a new class all within 2 years. Subaru first brought in the WRX, which exceeded the market researchers' expectation with amazing sales figure and baffled all their puny little ignorant minds. Then Mitsubishi followed with Lancer Evolution, which ended up being counter punched in the balls by Subaru again with the WRX STi. Now what? A Saab?!
Well, technically, it's an Impreza, with an European look. That's kinda like me dying my hair blond and wear Aberocrumbie & Bitch clothing - Still an asian no matter what. The 2.0 liter 227 horsepower trim is pretty much... another WRX.
So that made it 3 to 1, Subaru against Mitsubishi. So how about it, Diamond Star? How about bringing back the Galant VR4? A Colt turbo hatchback? Best do it before Honda and Toyota enter the class, or you'll fall behind like you did prior to bringing the Evolution.
Well, I guess all that's left now is to wait a year or two, and hear people brag about how great the European cars they own are, only to be made feeling like jackasses after finding out that it's really a Subaru... as they found out that Ford Probe is a Mazda MX-6, Pontiac Vibe is a Toyota Matrix, a Geo Metro is a Suzuki Swift, a Geo Prism is a Corolla, and so on.
I still want a M3, 350Z, S2000, and a 911 Turbo...

Interesting history of cars... I knew they had repackaged some cars and sold them under a different make, but had no idea which ones they were.
More cars stuff. I am clueless=)

Who's bragging about their Geo Metro?!
Is Saab still making fighter jets?
