The "Hirohito's Revenge" cars made by Fuji Heavy Industries were pretty neat in the 70s to early 90s(Subaru). Nobody else sold a car in the USA with four wheel drive, 30 MPG highway mileage, and a high-low transfercase, and air-suspension to get extra ground-clearance when needed.
Now? Every time I see one of those "Subaru Love" commercials, I want to puke. Nothing special or unique or utilitarian anymore about Subarus.
