so I was at the dealership today getting keys cut, it takes a few mins, so I go look at the show room. I was looking at the 06 FXT, the sales man goes "want to take one out?" OK!!! I take it out for 20min, and OMG I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I miss turbo power) he talks about the price and my trade in, and my brain is going nuts! but I walked away (for now) I cant make a deal with out the wife......after all I just got the 02 6 months ago. the only thing I didnt like was the Interior , guess I'm use to the old suby Interior

my wife caved in and went on Valentines day with me to pick up my Foz!

What don't you like about the interior?

How does yours compare to MY06?

Don't worry, she will somehow pull that card on you one day...that is just how women work;-)

I felt the same way back when I had my OBS and I sat in an SG Forester for the first time. I really liked the no-frills interior of the old school Imprezas and SF Foresters, and I guess the SG interior just didn't strike me as something I'd like in a Forester. A year later I got my XT, and I've never looked back. It'll grow on you!

 

[SKSTI]

I haven't sit in older Foresters, but I've always thought the MY06 is quite a plain jane. 3 guages, 3 dials, and a radio - that's about it. Even my 15 yr old Z's dash looks way busy than the Forester. If it's one thing, I would like the older Momo wheels over the new one. Other than that, I'm happy with the interior.

haha.. that's stock too... wait until you've modded the FXT...

I have friends that have 350Z, G35, BMW 330, 540, and various bikes... once they've had a ride in my car, they can't stop giggling...

I've had girls in my car, when they get blabbery.. I just stomp on the gas a bit, and that usually shuts them up for a good 15min...

I used to do the same thing, but I think my wife has grown immune to it.






















Guess I need a bigger turbo :spinnasmiley

If there's one thing I've learned after 15 years of marriage it's this...it's easier to ask for forgiveness, than it is to ask for permission. :wink:

 

[Doug]

You guys are reminding me why I bought my FXT before getting married. My live-in girlfriend of five years (who I'm crazy about, don't get me wrong) didn't even see the car before it was parked in the garage. :spinnasmiley



She likes it and I even let her drive it (once!) but she's a conservative driver and didn't rev it enough to notice the boost. I don't think she's car savvy enough to really know what's going on under the hood -especially not with the Cobb stage 1 map. :Banane01:

 

[pleiad7]

I wound up trading the ex-hubby in for a mod-friendlier model... :spinnasmiley

Don't put any ideas in my head. :think: :razz:

 

[stevev1]

We have the same car, how much bang for the buck did the Cobb stage 1 give you ? I think I'm headed down that road myself !

The 06 FXT I drove had the cloth interior which I quite liked (not quite black, but a charcoal colour & found the seats nice & grippy)......I have leather in the Lexus.....and getting tired of it to be honest...especially in the winter. :frown:

sirwilliam, I never even noticed that emoticon before lmao!

It isn't an emoticon from this site but I think the giggling emoticon is hilarious...not trying to make anybody mad.
