Thanks! No, the only problem I've got with the Mini is that I sold it (even though it's still in my garage) - hence my looking for a nice SVX. Various other things didn't work out like I hoped, so I that has forced me back into the car market.

I was considering new and used Subaru's before I got the Mini, so now that I am in the market again, it's only logical that I came back to them. Not to mention that I drive more in the rain/cold/snow than I do when it's nice out (that's what the SV650 is for!), so AWD makes sense for what I need/want. Add to that that I enjoy not seeing carbon copies of my car coming at me in the other lane, and here I am on the SVX board
