In 1975, my 1974 Datsun B-210's warranty had JUST run out when the transmission went bad. I had a friend who managed a rental company in Honolulu and asked her about the cheapest thing they had to use for a few weeks while I repaired the Datsun. She said they had JUST gotten in a new make/model of economy car and I could use one of them at a very low price. It was a little car no one had ever heard of called a "Subaru". The wierd thing about it was that it had Front Wheel Drive, which everyone I knew laughed about at the time - something about being so cheap, they couldn't afford a longer driveshaft. However, once I was driving it I noted something: The car pulled itself around turns, instead of pushed. And the turns were always under control, not the wild rear end sliding turns I had been used to. Back then the build quality of the body was pretty bad - ultra thin easily dented metal and not much soundproofing. But I could tell the car had a lot of potential. It's just grown better and more expensive ever since. My introduction to Front Wheel Drive and a little car called Subaru...1975...38 years ago.
