    mi/ukgal * ukgal/usgal = mi/usgal --> multiply it by .83

      This will be a great car to let depreciation take it's toll and snatch one up in a few years.

            Americans, your automotive tastes have been ruined by your cheap gas and drag "race".

            That is all.

              Yes, but the cost of a '12 STI motor kinda makes buying this car pointless. Will be great 5 years from now, but half of the point of this car is the pricepoint.
              Drive it hard. Maintain it well.

                  Looks like you are blindly applying massive stereotypes to large groups of people. Keep it up!

                  I hope our gas gets even cheaper. Enjoy your cars with less displacement than a Coke can!

                    You can make quite a bit of hp with a coke can that has 25psi goin into it ;)

                    I'm quite excited to see what comes from this car. The sub 200hp number is a little disheartening. Yes give it's weight it's enough to be fun, but it's not enough to really be considered quick without a few grand in parts. This with an ej207 would be a great car, tuned to a reliable 300whp with oem subaru parts and I'll be all over one in a few years.

                        Your guy's posts is why automakers don't make cars for enthusiasts.....Ford makes a fast great handling mustang and you bitch about its rear end suspension; subaru makes a great handling car with great suspension and you bitch about how much power it has; bmw makes the 1m with great suspension and power and you bitch about how much it weighs............. Of course a majority of this forum wouldn't pay the 500-700 a month these cars cost because they don't even have a real job.

                          I love this car, and the new Mustang GT for that matter. I love my e30 but at some point real life intervenes and having a fun, reliable, and comfortable becomes a priority.
