I disagree Huck, I chalk it up to some shabby Subaru
engineering on this one. My friend rarely beats on his
car and it only has 30K miles on it thus far. Its a common
complaint with almost all Imprezza owners with cable operated
clutches. I love Subaru as much as the next guy but this to
me is one of things that isnt just brought on by the drivers.
Plus you think Svx owners with a new 5 spd are going to
drive any easier on them with more hp on tap ??
