There is no Turbo'ed Outback, only forester does, what is the reasons why you want a new car? and what you will use it for?

Ummmm, isn't there a member of this board with a turbo outback.
Toyota 105 Series LandCruiser (that nobody on here wants to really hear about).
RX Touring Wagon - fitted out for 4WDing (currently collecting dust).
RX Project - will be road only at this stage (and currently taking way to long to finish).

Undoubtedly plenty of turbo Outbacks exist but only as conversions.

A bit off topic, but I know one car I wouldnt bother with, I had a test drive of a 2000 Forester a N/A 2.0L manual. Pretty gutless in my opinion, and going on my brothers '03 2.5L Forester which is heaps better, even my EA82T has heaps more poke than the 2.0L
'03 Forester X, stock standard for now.

'89 EA82T Touring Wagon, 5-speed D/R, 14" alloy wheels, bullbar. (Past ride)

'81 MY wagon, 3" lift, 5-speed D/R, Weber, 14x27" tyres. (Past ride)

ok,sounds like your eying something for an off-roader

I am extremely displeased with the RHS turning circle of my '98Outback as compared to the Lseries.Steering/maneuvering like a 4wd truck - may as well get a 4wd truck.

Anyway,is it off-topic to mention that now-a-days there are a heap of other soft-off-roader vehicles than Subaru? But I don't know anything about them
