Subaru Baja! My coworker Kyle has an awesome subaru Baja that looks just like this one here. It's such a versatile vehicle and I would definitely try to find one if I was car shopping now. We took it on a 400 mile (one way) trip up to a ski mountain in Vermont for the weekend. We had four people in the car, 3 snow boards on the roof, and a ton of gear in the bed. The turbo pulled the car-truck along pretty well while still returning admirable gas mileage above 20 for sure. I even got to drive some twistys in Vermont for a bit and it was pretty cool. That car with a manual would be an excellent car to own alongside my miata. All the utility of a small pickup truck but without losing any of the comforts of a car! I just wish more of them sold so that it would be easier to find one. We saw one other Baja in the lighter blue color at Sugarbush and damn does it look good! Anyone ever owned one?

I think Oppo has some sort of Baja lust right now, and I'm completely okay with it.

It's unique enough without being total obscure that you can't find any for a reasonable price. I found a few on Autotrader with manuals within 100 miles of home. If only I had 10k sitting around lol

i just don't like the rear overhang. If someone could Photoshop the rear wheel back further a bit. It would be titty

I'd imagine that would adversely affect the handling if you did that. It is a pickup bed so it might as well overhang a bit.

In that gaudy yellow color they were advertised with?

Im definitely into that dark blue color. But that may also be because my Miata is already that color too lol.
