She's gone - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

qksubi · 2005-01-02, 06:52 PM

The EVO is gone she was traded for a 05 lexus RX330

Dean · 2005-01-02, 07:03 PM

I guess that is both good and bad... I thought there was an AWD Volvo as the replacement.

Nick Koan · 2005-01-02, 07:23 PM

Oh man, damn. Looks like someone else in the club needs to buy an Evo now.

Dean · 2005-01-02, 07:34 PM

Actually, the RX is pretty cool.(for a SUV

) Which options did you get?

qksubi · 2005-01-02, 07:36 PM

Volvo Would not let me use my Xplan (500 over invoice) on the last xc90 they were going to get until feb15 so fuckem

Kevin M · 2005-01-02, 07:44 PM

Bad news and bad news.

The RX sucks. Wait til sperry gets back to rip into it like he did to his own mother when she got one.

Dean · 2005-01-02, 08:03 PM

What is your source of information on the RX sucking?

I don't know what Scott will say, and will not presume to comment before he does. He is welcome to his opinion.

While I have not even driven one, the reviews, and specs I have read/seen on the car place it as probably one of the best SUVs currently on the market. In many respects it is better than the XC90 as far as I can tell. If you must have a SUV, this is a pretty darn good choice IMHO.

LetItRev · 2005-01-02, 08:06 PM

What Dean said and factor in that Lexus is one of the most reliable names in car manufacturing.

I'd take it over the Volvo.

Kevin M · 2005-01-02, 08:08 PM

Well... for a tall Camry, the interior is nice. I'll give it that. Hope you at least didn't settle for the FWD model Eric.

qksubi · 2005-01-02, 08:26 PM

Fwd What the f are you talking about its awd dumb ass and dont worry You wont drive it it can suck all day in my garage

Plus you drive a RS I would rather have a honda

Kevin M · 2005-01-02, 08:27 PM

You bought an SUV dude. What did you expect?

The 05 is completely different do your home work before you decide to be a expert

MattR · 2005-01-02, 08:30 PM

I believe Scott's mom got a prior generation RX, like an '01 maybe, and perhaps even a 2wd... I think they've made the new 04-05 editions with a much improved AWD system...(I think that's what I read in Motor trend or something)...And they are REALLY nice inside, as far as features and comfort..So cool deal, the EVO was a difficult car as a daily driver anyway...

Will the license plate still read "Ban Suvs"?

Yeah, Lexus makes nice everything, I really don't like where the styling has gone on most of their sedans, but they are still ultra-nice to drive in...

There are a select few SUV's that I like right now, the Lexus is cool, as is the Nissan Murano, Nissan Armada

, X5 and Toureg...The Volvo is noce too, but they want too much for them still...

I wish I had something with some more ground clearance this week..damn, my front end looks beat-down...

doubleurx · 2005-01-02, 08:42 PM

We've had our Acura MDX for almost four years now. That car is amazing in the snow and uber comfortable. It also gets over 20 mpg average. The clearance is great and with the kids, that thing is essential.

Kevin M · 2005-01-02, 08:42 PM

If I'm ever driving an SUV, the plates might as well say "SHOOT ME"

I was behind an MDX the other morning (Friday) on my way to work, We went over this terrible washboard surface on the freeway in the snow, and that thing was just planted and smooth, I was impressed acually, where as the vibration shook my V1 off of the windshield.

tysonK · 2005-01-02, 09:19 PM

Wow. First of all let's be objective about this:

http://www.aynrand.org/site/PageServer

That car off'ing came out of nowhere? Maybe I should have went to the NewYears party?

Anyway I loved you guys EVO! You should have sold it to me on a long extended payment plan.

Thats Lexus sounds friggin nice. Were the commercials on TV for he 05? All those features it had were pretty kick ass if you ask me. As long as you are buying premiums SUVS the leuxs is better looking to me than the m-class mini van.

IN other news, The Real Blonde (movie) is on TV right now. That's a funny movie. :wink:

Dean · 2005-01-02, 09:55 PM

I would have bought an FX, but the new RXs are pretty cool. Of course I like SUVs.
