just because As the title says, this is my first Justy--in fact, my first Subaru. It's a 5-speed 1990 GL and had ~96K miles on its new 1.2 L 3-cyl fuel injected engine. I bought it from a guy who said it had an issue with the fuel system and that it ran kid of rough. I confirmed the roughness when I test drove it, but fell in love with how it handled on the first day. Brought it home, and after buying a $0.01 fuel filter and changing it out, it ran much better. My friend replaced the valve cover gasket and put some bushings in for the motor mounts. It's still got a fuel issue, as I smell it pretty heavily inside and it's not getting the mileage it's supposed to. Right now it's a commuter car, but I look forward to the day it becomes more of an off-roading go-kart, because that's what it feels like driving it! Aside from the issues, it's a peppy little thing, and I absolutely love it. I've had several people stopped at the lights in town remark on how cool it is that it's 4wd, and that it's so tiny. You just don't see Justy's every day.

No, these are truely a special car. I get more compliments on it than my fully built bright ass yellow SVT focus. These cars are pretty tough and should carry on alot more miles. I've got the same year, 1990 4wd 1.2L white 5 door. Your picture link seems to be broken. :/ welcome though!!

Thank you! Sorry, had an issue uploading the picture because the file was too big. I think she's getting a Maaco treatment for christmas.
