Nice !! I looked at, and drove the outback Xt 5/mt when I was getting ready to buy the Fxt. It is an awesome package, and your wifes car looks great the way you have it set-up! Looking at the Forester and Outback together in the same driveway really provides confirmation of the style differences that are opposite ends of the spectrum with one being very sleek and stylish (hint..not the Fxt), and the other being more blunt and purposeful while still retaining a performance styling appeal.
In the end both are great cars, and you guys are fortunate enough to have both!
