Actually, the Turbo baja is the slowest of the turbo subaru's even the wrx autmatic. It does 0-60 in 7.3 seconds.

Ah, but we were talking about the Baja. The 3751-pound Baja Turbo is less quick, owing to its greater weight and our test car's four-speed automatic. Still, at 7.3 seconds, it's quicker by two full seconds to 60 mph than a standard Baja equipped with a five-speed manual. Further, the Baja Turbo would be quicker than any of its competitors. If, that is, it had any competitors.

You can only get them in automatic so far. And they are only 210-hp.

You are probably thinking of the Turbo Forester. That is faster then the WRX.

Actually I did not know that. But I am glad they did. Pontiac has now continued production of the aztec...At least Subaru realized the ugly design and killed it.

I thought there was a significant redesign of the Aztec, but they turned off the ugly machine. Anyone got any pics?

My wagon is stock minus the boost controler. And when I am over-boosting, I try not to push the car hard so it doesn't blow up on me. I think you know how my wagon preforms when working correctly biatch.

Yeah, i've looked into that already. That upsolute chip looks pretty cool but do you really think it'll increase horsepower to 190? I'm just waiting to get paid to start buying crap.

Ask Dean, he's got a chipped Audi 1.8T, and it's fast!

Yeah, so does my friend with the blue Audi. His is also chipped and has a cat-back, and that thing flies. The only thing is that my Jetta isn't turboed, it's a VR6.

I loved the idea: "Brat Reborn" but the execution was terrible. That thing should have come w/o the two-tone, and with a factory lift-kit and light bar or something. And better "old skool" styling in general.

Not to mention it should have been a 2 seat Impreza truck instead of a deformed Legacy Outback.

Naw, they were going for the nitch market of people that want a useless wagon *and* a useless truck.
