    Thats on my list too mate - the 2004 model looks really good, saw a dude in auzzie who had a black one woth really nice mags, love the head lights to.

    BUT - I know you guys will hate me, what about a 2004 STI Forrester? 6 speed manual, turbo, lots of room and they look reallu good too..... set aside the biast vr4 nature and give me some true opinions - thanks

    How would a forrester be any better at carrying 3 kids than a Legnum? They might be a little bit roomier, but not much.

    It will be slightly safer than a VR4, not that the Leggy is exactly unsafe. Handling won't be as good.

    In general Subarus have a reputation as being unreliable once they have meduim Kms on them - turbos especially. Although they have been improving in this regard of late.

    I agree with Bradc's point...how exactly would it be an improvement? (Other than being newer and slighty safer).

    Theres alot more boot space? And it beats getting a Ford Exploder!! The 2004/2005 sti model is very roomy, alot more then our beloved VR4.....
    I just dont wanna be caught out driving a boring people mover - if I get the one im after - they look so good too.....but not as good as a vr4 lol!

    yup, they look nice... i seem them everyday, as i work right next to Mitsubishi Motors in porirua (Todd Motors). They got the new pajero coming out, and they took one for a test drive the other day. guy reckons it handled and performed really well. they went both on and off road. pajero came back with all the windows covered in mud, so im sure they gave it death.

    but those airteks look nice and roomy.. when i have as much kids as showvr, then ill think about those cars... but i love the leggie.

    hope they make more VR4's in the future is all i can say
