My iX + what i've done so far...

[Nisse Järnet]

Nice to see some snow! We still havent got any :(

I was gonna pick ur brain about this since u recently picked up the subie! When i'm ready to purchase one i'll hit u up (assuming you know anything about the impreza's)

Yeah man, hit me up. Timing belts are every 105K as opposed to 50K (e30), everything is SUPER easy to get to (minus plugs/coils), and the design is straightforward so if you're leaving it stock they're quite reliable. H4s are known to need head gaskets around 150K, but 2005+ they fixed that nonsense.

I just turned over 150K.....almost 1yr ago to the day, I fixed the odometer @ 128,732

drove just over 20K miles in 2014 :)

hosed the salt off yesterday, since it was caked on.

How many winters has she seen? Any sign of corrosion creeping in? Just curious to what extent salt, etc. does damage (or not) to our cars, regardless of what the conventional wisdom says.

it has seen 6 full blown winters in my ownership. The only sign of body corrosion are misc bolts, jack points, and a tiny bit on the edge of the rear battery tray (valence). The subframe & diff have some surface rust....

I know with the amount of abuse I give it is only going to shorten its' life, but you only live once right ;)

Abuse! You paint that car every other year and you replace anything that doesn't shine anymore. You also drive it like a 90 year old grandma

For six years of winter driving, that sounds pretty good!
