Thanks for the kind words and welcome! We love it so far. Very solid and stable on the highway, very quiet inside. And tall. It seems like it is higher when seated in the driver seat, and it does seem to be taller (it probably is, but I haven't compared specs). So much more pep than our 04 forester xs and I haven't gone past half throttle. Still a lot different than the WRX - loud, road noise, etc... although I've done quite a few mods that make it that way (Sti pink springs, top hats, bigger sway bars, strut tower braces, wider tires...).
