Thanks for all the warm wishes. I'm still adjusting to having a car with 100 more hp than my old car (91 Legacy). I'm a little bit concerned about whether the AWD works - I don't really have jack stands and a jack to test out the AWD. I was driving around in the rain yesterday and it felt like it took either 1. A long time for the rear wheels to get traction or 2. the front wheel(s) to catch and get grip. I floored it across my apartment parking lot (new pavement soaked with rain) and it felt like I was spinning the whole way across the parking lot (maybe all three wheels were spinning - these aren't really rain/snow tires). It also felt like I could chirp/break the tires free on dry pavement - is 230hp enough to do that?
The tripometer is also broken and I was thinking about how I could go about fixing that. And I was also wondering if the fog light/hazard/cruise/rear defroster lights should glow when I have the lights on (light up the buttons, not the indicator for them being on). If they are, I would suspect that their bulbs are out and then I would need to figure out a way to take off the switches to replace the lights. My cupholder is also MIA (it's mentioned in the manual, but it's not in my car!). Cupholders are a big plus.

the lights are supposed to light up. No big deal, the repalacment bulbs are like 4$ each from suby parts, nd its very easy to remove the switches to replace them. Pretty typical for little lights like that to be burnt out
And the cupholders...nearly nobody has them. Ive never had one (Or seen one in person the that matter) Just dont drink and drive
