Welcome back Alan. Are we allowed to post our own trivia, or just answer them?

The 2cyl, 36hp, 1000lb Subaru 360. It was first brought to the US in early 1968, but it had been sold in Japan since '61.

Sorry, old brain.It was 1983 that Subaru introduced the 95 hp, 123 torque turbo Gl 10 as a 1994 model. The it was available in wagon, coupe and brat. Only available with automatic and 4 wheel drive. Tom

You were so close the first time, except for you numbers but I wasn't checking those. The correct answer would have been "wagon and BRAT" The Turbo coupe didn't come out till later.

I have a few questions. I'll start with an easy one:


1) Which recent Subaru used an engine that was NOT horizontally opposed?


2) The SVX was referred to as "Project 23A". What was the 1st generation Outback project name/code?


3) What is the slope (in degrees) of the SVX windshield?

4) The Winter/Summer wiper switch was first used on which Subaru?

5) Only one Subaru had headlight washers. Which one was it?

All questions refer to U.S. models.
