Blue redline at Subaru Plano

I'm having a co-worker look at a blue Redline at Subaru of Plano. Anyone from here trade one in? What should I know about the car? The co-worker is trying to step out of a clunker, so anything built this decade is a step up. Any info is greatly appreciated

I traded an 06 Blue RL with about 36,000 miles in to Saturn dealership, and I know it'd been making the rounds to several of theirs for past few months

dunno if it might be the same one, if it's got a scrape on back right rear bumper, then it's same one

Why did you trade the 06 in? How much was the trade if I may ask? If the guy that's test driving the 04 tomorrow likes it, I may tell him about the newer 06. Where is this 06 located Saturn of Lewisville perhaps? Can't wait to get the guy's read on the Saturn. The 2 other cars he's driven were a 90 5.0 mustang, and a 92 supra that was turboed.

Trust me, the supra wasn't factory turbo and he's finding out a lot of little headaches.

Looking at those photos of the interior, you can see the seatbelt guide on the driver side is broken off. That sucks. My passenger side is broken off and my wife complains about the belt cutting into her neck. I'm a little embarassed when I do have passengers and end up apologizing for it. I went and ordered one today though. Problem solved.

Hey Robert, what was your friends opinion after he test drove one?

The Co-worker had fun with the car, driving it around kinda like an idiot. He had fun with it, but I think he's decided to stick with that old Supra, mainly because he needed a co-signer.


How's your bike running Cole? You going to join the CobaltSS meet out at Texas Motor Speedway for their laps for charity? Definitely a lot of fun out there.

It's running pretty good. I usually ride it to work when the weather allows for it. It needs a valvle job and a gasket job on the top end and it will be running like a champ. I don't know if I'll be able to make it out since I work on Saturday's. I haven't really looked into it at all. They pace you at 60 MPH don't they?
