it was an STi, and has an extremely unusually low depreciation (at least in the last few years), although geography is a factor. In 2006 I bought a 2004 for $21,000, ten years later it was worth $26,000 lol

had a '06 WRX, hosed around to get more easy pwr out of it, put 50,000mi on the odo, found out that the motor lost 50% compression and decided to list it instead of love it. bought for 12, sold it for 10 to some flat billed rube from Maine 3yrs later

it's so they can go "heh yeah we love outdoors, hiking, beaches,c amping. we're definitely relax and chronically unafraid of nature, in fact we want to gently caress it because we are that chill and interesting. unlike those boring people!"

either that or they had the shop put it on and are incompetent enough not to know how to take it on off. and/or they rent and have no place to store it if it's not ontop of the car (this would be my case but i wouldn't pack more than could fit in the trunk and would never had one, but if i did i'd have to leave it ontop all the time).

if somebody pulls some ridiculously dangerous maneuver on the freeway at high speed that makes you go "holy poo poo what a dick" there is a 95% chance it is an audi

well. it's like 40% audi and 45% BMW 3 series

e: those two cars you can definitely stereotype and hit it 97% of the time.

like you can't really do the same for Prius drivers since they run whole 9-yard range from crazy speed demon to slow-poke left-laner. generally though i think they're more on the speedy-side, but cautious side, at least around here but it's sort of a crapshoot. same for trucks, you easily remember the rear end in a top hat in ford HDD supermax 5000+ DIESEL who rides your rear end while you're in the right lane while you're already going 85 MPH, but ive seen a lot who're pretty chill and let people in, usually go more or less flow of traffic/speed limit so it's pretty evenly distributed.

Subaru drivers in the mountain west tend to be the most conscientious and efficient drives on the road. Except the kids in the doriftuuuuu beat rear end old turbo models. I suspect those are the primary subaru owners in the rest of the country.

Boy are the NA models underpowered though. Gotta plan ahead when you gotta go uphill.

It seems like half the cars in Coloado are Subarus.

also this thread has it so wrong, it is Kia drivers who are the biggest morons on the road

maybe that's a regional thing, but like maybe only 0.5% of the cars i see are Kias. and considering that a significant portion of drivers are the biggest morons, i dont see how that's possible

For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

I think it's OK, guys. Subaru drivers got this.

Of course BMW drivers are assholes, but at least they're competent drivers who don't block up the loving road because of the fear that resides in their lovely beard.

Any maneuver done fast enough gets a pass.
