Maybe trading car in and growing up?

So lately ive been thinking about trading/selling both my cars and picking up a nice 2002 subaru bugeye wagon. I need four doors as its just easier with having a child now. Ex wife had a bugeye sedan and it was a solid car. I would only consider WRB or aspin white and 5spd of course. Also kinda bored of the 2 car thing and would like one all around car thats good in all new england weather. Ideas opinions?

This is the exact car i would want/look like. I absoultly love the wagons for some reason.

I traded my Cobalt on the 2012 Malibu.
Because of needing a 4 door.

For something unique and different you should get a 2005 or 2006 Saab 9-2x Aero (Saabaru). AWD, 230hp stock, tons of options were available including leather, 5 star safety rating.

Since it's basically the same as a WRX, parts are interchangeable (stock and aftermarket) and it's more reliable than other Saabs.

Here's one in Lowell, MA Click

Here's one from a private seller in NY. Tastefully modded Click

Another dealership one in Mass. but this looks like one of those small time "buy here, pay here" dealerships. Click

I'd go with the Saab variant personally. That way, I could still claim to be a GM *****.

These are awd?

The gf just bought this bugeye


It's stage 2 with a full hks exhaust and it moves out, holds 15lbs and spools instantly. Very fun to drive, I was out hooning it around tonight. Not having LSD in the rear diff sucks. I'll have to make a pull video to post. We were looking at wagons also but got a good deal on this one so we bought it. I've been thinking about paying the cobalt off and buying a newer Wrx or even sti hatchback. But in 3 years when the gf pays off the Wrx it's going to me and she's getting a ms3. Then I'm gna build that Wrx from the ground up and do some hillclimbs and amateur rally events and such. So I have no idea what I'll do. Keeping the cobalt no matter what tho.
