I ordered mine the day before Christmas and was told it would probably arrive the second half of February.

I went to the party last night, fell in love and ordered one this afternoon. It should be here towards the end of January.

I handed over $500 to place an order on 15 Dec. with an expected arrival before 22 Feb. I ordered it with navigation, but I'm now considering
that an unnecessary waste of money. Especially with its low MPG, I wouldn't really want to take it on long trips if I didn't have to.

9 1/2" wide wheels will not make good snow tires.... way too wide. Maybe the place he purchased those from will have narrower options.

For snows, you'd be better off looking for some good 17x7 to 17x8's that will fit over the brembos. Narrower wheels make better snow tires, and 17's are cheaper than 18's.

Nope--I am not that guy---I had gave it to the tire shop the day I got it and put a pair of all seasons on it.

snow gets out of it's way.

I'm in Vegas now. Seems that Las Vegas Subaru has 7 or 8 in stock. This is per their website inventory.

I am on the East Coast, pre-ordered 11/27. Was told it would arrive between the end of January and the end of March. Ordered White/Gold without the Nav. Have heard nothing else on delivery to date.

Snowmaniac153 · 12-30-2007, 03:53 PM

good idea with the gold and white--I love it

Yes, it's been my favorite combo for a while now. It's been such a tease seeing you folks on the West Coast getting your orders in already.

BlueF · 12-30-2007, 07:23 PM

Pre-ordered Nov 17th, car arrived Dec 17th.

998 miles later... still a big dumb grin.

Sorry I did not read the the 9.5 yes you are right wider is not better in snow. I had a set of SSR Comp's (the old style before tirerack bought the company) I am looking for something like that. Are you sure 17" will fit becouse that would be perfect. I can go with nokkiens RSI's
