    Maybe it's because I used to love the Subaru Brat, but today I had a 15 minute thought that I should sell my STi and get a Turbo Baja.

    I love my car, but always feel like I could use a truck, and although they're a little wierd looking, it's basically a new age El Camino. And who wouldn't love that.

    Anywho, maybe I'm crazy. Just a thought.

    I thought I had seen one that was. most of them were 2.5 NA but I swear I've seen a turbo one.

    Drop the EJ257 in that shit with the new WRX 5 speed and it would be the same thing the Forester XT is: a practical, sensible, bitchin-assed vehicle. Not to mention a complete sleeper if you chose to mod it.

    FTW

    I would have to say I would get a Forester XT but I do like the Baja.

    But a Baja STI would still be damn sexy. I'd not give up my FXT project for it at all!

    2004 to 2006.

    Why? It has the EJ255, same as 257 minus the catless uppipe, turbo and tuning. The 5MT is similar to the Forester one in gearing and toughness.

    The one thing that stops me from getting a Baja is the fact that I have something cooler....my outback.
