Welcome, yeah what's the new FB like?

I heard that it's not all that torquey down low and the fuel economy in the Forester is pretty average...

How are you finding it?

I like it hey seem to go really good for N/A, i test drove the earlier SH9 model with the EJ25 when i was looking to buy and decided on the newer FB25 because it goes alot better IMO as for fuel ecconomy hard to say as ive only used half a tank so far, but the average on the trip computer say 9L/100kms so far, but all in all im very happy with my purchase handles pretty good as well...

My old car was a BFII XR6 Falcon and after driving it for few years i dont find the Forester slow or boring at all i actually think its more fun to drive than the falcon was hey...
