New Impreza owner
Hi,
I've just joined the rest of you Subaru owners and bought a 2001 Impreza RS Coupe :-) Anyway, I have a few questions relating to my new best friend: 1) Is there anywhere local to Ottawa with winding roads where you can have a bit of fun. I'm new to the area (I've just relocated from England) so don't know that many places. I'm still limited to under 4000 revs for another 1000km, but once I hit that 1500km mark ... 2) How critical is it to get winter tyres/rims? Does the salt really damage alloys? 3) Anything I should know as a new Subaru owner? 4) Do any TV channels show any of the WRC? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, Stef

Stef,
Welcome to the Subaru Club... actually we have a subaru club in Ottawa. Here's our site... www.ottawasubaru.com For winding roads... there's lots of them on the Quebec side... just north of Hull or Gatineau... all within 20 minutes... For winter tires, it depends... if you plan only to drive your car in the city, you can get by.... but if you plan to ski or long trip in the winter, I seriously suggest some 15" rims and winter tires... Do want to join our club? the club has discounts at the all 3 subaru dealerships in Ottawa... and also other shops in Ottawa... For WRC coverage, there isn't much but we see a 30 minute coverage of the races on Speedvision (channel 59 if you have Rogers)... usually on Monday at 8pm... once a month....
