Smooth riding vehicles???

[niky]

I tend to agree. The thick tires of the Forester should provide a smooth ride. But, I'd take the XT because it's guaranteed to have a suspension tout enough to handle quick takeoffs and fast cruising. The normally aspirated version may not be as well-equipped. I could be wrong though. I haven't test-driven the N/A version.

Our local 2.5 turbo XT actually rides pretty smoothly... Don't think they needed to firm up the suspension for added traction... AWD, remember?

Auto_Xer just got back from a track day with one... C! Magazine tuner challenger... they ran a Forester with an STi turbo, an HKS exhaust, unichip, STi brakes, full coilovers... over 300whp on a 4-speed automatic wagon... pure madness.
