    There are quite a few crossovers and SUV's that can be track cars. I turned my Outback 3.6R into a canyon car/track car. I have a few videos about it on my channel, including a review, and I plan on doing another review since I've beefed up the suspension a lot recently. I'd love for you to drive it if you ever come out to Southern California, david! I met you at SEMA with my friend Jake at the CZcamsr panel by the way. You might remember us.

    Awesome video! I have the same car, same color. I have so far added 034 motorsports engine transmission street mounts, KW adjustable coil-overs, 034 strut mounts, and an Integrated Engineering Cold Air Intake with carbon fiber cover. I am going to add an intercooler next before going with 034 Stage 1 ECU and 034 Stage 2 TCU tune. Also 034 or ECS billet drivetrain inserts. I love my car and may do Sway bars down the road among other upgrades. Such a fun all around=d car to own and drive! I love it!! Favorite car!!
