I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

guess who doesn't own subaru anymore?

general car and site related talk and chat.

It was news to me that GM owned anything in Subaru.

It's a good thing that they sold, though. :up:

why the fuck would you be happy about that? Toyota hasn't been able to make a competent sports car in almost 10 years. Ya, can't wait to see the new STi, it'll get 40mpg and put out a whopping 160hp.


Every single car in toyota's new lineup looks like ass. They're making a push AWAY from performance, and towards efficiency.

There's absolutely nothing in toyota's current "business plan" that could mean anything but trouble for subaru.
