Know Your Roots: great old Subaru video

Found this on YouTube...pretty funny to look back at Subaru's first offerings in the US market.

YouTube - Subaru of America 66 mpg Look Cheap & Ugly

The 360 was actually a pretty horrid car. Couldn't go, couldn't turn and couldn't stop.

as the guy was saying how sport and fun the cheap and ugly is he almost rolled it, but i realy liked that little truck thing, maybe an sti swap...

that first video was effing awesome. he flat out calls it cheap and ugly, then they almost drift it into a fence and call it sporty. man i wish this was the 60s again.

... including some groovy chicks!!

That 360 Super Sport is the great great great grand daddy of the STi!

Over at the Nate Wade Subaru dealership in SLC, Utah they have a yellow Subaru 360 Van, very neat (and tiny) looking. They put one of those Yakima trunks on top of it and it's almost larger than the Van!!

Great video, it's always cool to look back and see how far we've come...!
