I did CT to Louisiana immediately after picking it up. The car is amazingly comfortable for long hauls. Better than either my e36 M3 or my Civic Si. If you aren't already using voice controls, read through the brochure to see what it recognizes. It will make your trip better.

Some kind of piping or tree branch collected in it. Got kicked up as I drove through it. Rush hour congestion made it impossible for me to see it ahead of time.

mechaghost, did you take that picture in your avatar? I saw that pic on the Subaru Facebook page. Very nice shots.

Finally got some oversteer action for about 1 second, hehehe

Still put a smile on face. It has so much grip, you really have to floor it and dump the clutch at above 4k rpm to get some tail sliding.

I took her out over the weekend and got the tail to break loose pretty easily. TC fully off, dry lot. Still waiting for a rainy weekend
