Subaru 360 fun. Light as a feather!

We saw this little guy in the car lot in town. So we just had to check it out.

This car has a 356cc 2 cylinder 2 stroke, weighs less than 1000 lbs, gets 65 mpg, and has a 0 to 50 time of over 37 seconds. haha no joke. The top speed is about 60 mph, and Depending on the year of manufacture it has 16 to 36 horses in the trunk (where the engine is transversely mounted)

It looks nice, I wonder if it's for sale? Red is uncommon color. If it had a black roof with a white stripe it is the sport model and very desireable...

Last I saw it, it was still in the dealers lot. No stripe. on it though.

Those are such cool cars...,that looks like a nice one, where was that located ?

[PeoriaGangsta]

Peoria, IL well 20 min west actually. It was in decent shape. would need some TLC on the inside, but the motor looked good and the body was nice. I'd never seen one before and liked it instantly!

Somebody would try to still this car today. You better buy a Kriptonite". But no one want your Yugo even if you left the keys inside!

I was just reading about this car in the book about the Yugo The Rise and Fall of the Worse Car This Subaru was imported by Bricklin the same guy that imported the Yugo. They got around safety laws with the 360 because it weighed less than 1000 lbs and the USA Safety laws only applied to vehicles more than 1000 lbs. Technically it was a motorcycle. I believe the original 360 was 1500 lbs but they reduced the weight to get under the wire
