Z-Man going Green?


old school

Yes it was.

 

I sold my old 1995 BMW 3-Series, it had almost 200K miles on it. It was my winter car, so I needed to replace it with something else.

 

My requirements (in order of importance) were that I had to be comfortable with driving it in the snow, It had to be fun to drive, It had to had distinctive styling, 4 door, cargo room, not too big.....so I ended up with a 2013 Subaru WRX in Ralley Blue.

 

I has a flat 4 cylinder engine, turbo-charged and intercooled. It makes 265 hp, which is more than the Fox Body Mustang 5.0 I used to have. Handles great, especially in the messy weather. I'm very happy wiith it. I just rolled over 6000 miles last night.

 

I don't know that I would call it 'green', but it is getting about 22 mpg (a little lower if I can't stay out of the boost).

 

These cars have a cult following almost as strong as the Shelby's do

 

Z-man

 

ps - I still have the 'yellow' car as well
