hey everybody, new here and new to a forester, i havent actually gotten mine yet, but wed is the big day! did have a question concerning it, but i'll find elsewhere to post it! good to be here and looking forward to learning as much as i can!
will do asap, i actually have pics of it now! just need 12 more posts now! btw, love your xt project, i've gotten about 1/2 way through the post and its an incredible suby!
Thanks for the compliment on my Member Journal. I have to admit doing the MODding is almost easier than the write up. :icon_eek:
As to posting pictures or links. You're required to have 15 posts to link to a host (to prevent spamming), but you can attach pictures (thumbnails) now. :wink:
ah perfect! well then here it is!
the second one is the part im still contemplating about whether or not to make the purchase. its the only real issue i see with the vehicle. so should i go for it?
Is it the rusting that has you concerned? If you're in a State that salts the roads in the winter, it's going to be difficult to find an '03 that's rust free. Here in Oregon, they don't use road salts, so even our '95 Neon is rust free. :smile:
If there's no body rust, most of the stuff underneath can be cleaned off & painted. It will be a PIA, but it can be done over the summer. You're going to have to get under there & have a good look. Better to know what's under there before you buy it. If the rusting is excessive, you might get the asking price reduced. :wink:
Welcome to the forum from Niagara Falls! :bacon:
thanks for sharing the pictures, looks like a pretty decent set of wheels there... best of luck with the purchase.
One week ago I finally made the leap and bought my first Subaru, a 2020 Forester Sport in Magnatite Gray. It's my first brand new vehicle in 20 years (my prior vehicle is a 9 month old HHR, now our spare), so I was very hesitant, not to mention suffering sticker shock, lol. However, this forum...
So glad to be a part of this community! My name is Tom and I am the proud owner of a 2019 Sport in Ice Silver. It’s my first Subaru. I sold Subaru’s as a temp job in 2015 and fell in love with the brand, so I am happy to finally have one of my own. I love being able to drive up into the...
hey guys,
I’m new to the group! I came across this forester for $500 with a bad auto tranny. I didn’t want a auto but I actually had a spare 4eat at home so I figured I’d make it work with a auto for now. I have plans on 1jz swapping the car in the next year when the Stock 2.5x motor goes. I...
I’ve been a long time Subaru fan but for some reason had never pulled the trigger. I’ve been looking at the Crosstrek for the last three to four years and each year we went to the State Fair we would check out the Subaru’s and sit in them and look at the features. This last October at the most...
Hi! New owner of Jasper, a green 2020 Forester Touring with black interior. Love it so far now that we are figuring out the tech a bit. Coming from two 05 Legacy GT 5mt’s so there is a lot more going on and one less pedal. Nice driving car though I have to say, even without a turbo. I like how...
