Yeah I am very familiar with how much it costs to modd let alone keep up a subaru...had 3 of them before the GTP and all my friends still drive wrx's forester xt etc...I loved my last legacy but the gtp has been a really nice faster car with way more comfortable interior...I really would like a cts-v but what I can afford has the diff issues...why don't you get another pontiac Bio?
