The decision for the things you're asking about are strictly Subaru decisions. I don't mind asking that next time I meet with SOA marketing/PR if they're feeling like talking to me about it.
If I recall that didn't go so well last time?

Hmm don't need to ask him that, since he wouldn't be the right person to ask. I'm sure we'll get a chance to have reviews on it.

Probably just get marketing double talk but worth the shot. Not like they are going to lay out all their plans for the public.

I actually found out more things about the events that occur in NYIAS with me and as to why they were so mean it was sorta valid. But at the same time very unprofessional. The fellow at WBM is someone who isn't the face but he was willing to work with us. We were the only people allowed inside, I belive only jalopnik and SOA was allowed to see the car Interior as in sit in it a rolled down window to see inside and actually sitting I guess isn't too differnt. But im very thankful to them to allow us to do what we did with Moto San. Consider my feelings toward SOA much better than in March.

Good that you knew what you mean. I didn't.
Fixed... I specifically referenced the new manifold. Seeing that the picture was of the old manifold, you incorrectly inferred without considering the context of the discussion and without considering all the available evidence.

Well then, l hope you feel better knowing that you're not the only person committing the logical fallacy of failed inductive inference.

Well since your comment was seemingly randomly thrown up with no referencing quotes to refer to it was very easy to take out of context. Yes, you knew what you were referencing but nobody else would.


Good day sir.

Good day sir.
and good day to you... context. But, you'd rather insultingly jump down someone's throat without context, like you do in almost every other thread on this forum.
