She got home and was mostly csalm with the new car after I pointed out the tires. she still asked how I am going to get rid of the rest of the car. little does she know that we are just going to have four subarus from now on.

GL5 and GL10 are sedans aren't they? GLF-5 being coupe only.
GLF5's all had two doors, but you could get digital and analogue dashes in them depending on year. My 82 GLF5 has an analogue dash

I have seen a GL10 recently as a Wagon. It was a Jap import, Touring Wagon, EA82T, AWD auto around Pt Kennedy one night.
I think someone else had a post here about a GL10 wagon, again Jap import via NZ to Vic I seem to recall.

Dont think there is a thing called GL5. GL10 is a sedan or a wagon - it simply shows the trim and option level for Jap and US models.

There is a GL5 up the road from me, and I used to work with a guy who owned one. Both I've seen are 'shiny maroon' (dark red) MY sedans and are 4 doors with sunroof, velour and mags.

I should have said that GL10 is an L-series.
