    I saw a Red Saabaru Wagon on Thursday turning left on Ashford Dunwooody from the road that runs parallel with the Walmart shopping center. I tried to wave, but they were already turned onto Ashford Dunwoody by the time I was turning left onto that road. It had new tags so I think it could be Alex's brother. This was at 3-4PM or so.

    It prolly was. If you see it parked, just look for the WRXatl decal on the rear deck. That's Andrew's.

    Yeah, I liked the Saabaru's ass. I first saw the car at the International Auto Show in SF at the Mosconi Center and wasn't too fond of it just because I felt like it was a ripoff, but the luxury aspect of the car combined with the WRX engine is really growing on me. I say this because I really wish I had leather and a sunroof.

    Anyways, enough of me being off topic....

    if you really want leather the dealer in CA where I got my rex from will do a custom leather interior for you. I think he said it was $1500 (they are also a mercedes dealer... hence it's good leather). As for the sunroof.... i'm sure someone can do it with a Saab sunroof, can't guess the price though. it'd be sweet to have. That's what i miss most about my honda.... but not much else :wiggle:

    I saw a commercial for the Saabaru last night and they said on it that it has an estimated gas mileage of 30 MPG. If it has the WRX engine, how can it get 30 miles to the gallon. Alex, do you know what kind of gas mileage your brother is getting?

    I can't imagine the Aero getting 30mpg. But like the Impreza there's a 2.0T (Aero) and a 2.5 nat.asp (Linear). Maybe it's the 2.5 that's getting that mileage???

    I think the commercial was for the 93 Aero

    $1500 for leather?!?! Nah....I would rather focus money on Prodrive P1s and a new side panel since I ran over a curb. :eek:

    haha, really. My 1500 is going into a B&B TBE and crucial UP. But leather and a sunroof would be classy.... just thought i'd throw that out there for you anyway.

    Forget leather, sunroof is pro though.
