Need some advice...

I finally got myself a pretty good job and the stresses of owning three (3) SVX's is starting to get to me .

I would really like to get myself into a nice '06 Legacy Spec.b or '05-'06 STi.

I hate thinking about letting two of my babies go though .

They both are in the middle of alot of work and I doubt anybody else would want to buy them to fix them.

As it is, I "could" get my new car and still fix my SVX's (obviously alittle slower than what I had planned). But i'm just not sure if I want to deal with the hassle of three of them.

The '95 of course, is staying with me no matter what

Harry,

You and Alan are defining a brand new language here.

Who would want to ditch perfectly good trees, I ask myself?

And as for Alan, what generation keyboard is he using? P is a heck of a long way from C on the one I use.


Dustin, keep the '95, shift the two trees, and buy the Legacy Spec B, that's my vote.

Joe

family-friendly site - didn't want to offend the small children that browse this page devoted to an obscure, manufacture-discontinued car.

female dog, people get offended.

Yeah, I knew that!! Just jokin' wittya.

Plus I know you are being facetious when you mention that small kids might be viewing this fan-site.

Our aim in keeping it family friendly, even though grandad is probably the only one watching, is just to keep it polite in general. We do have ladies around, whatever about little kids.

My gosh Joe. As everyone knows, young beeches are the worst kind of trees especially in Ireland to keep around. Friends of the Irish Environment told me so. That's why I said, ditch em.

Alan can type? I was under the impression that mules weren't able to read much less type with their large hoofs...yet again I'm proved wrong.
