  1. "All new Subaru models are included in the VIP Program, subject to availability and dealer discretion." That may mean that the dealer could exclude a spec.B, for example, and other models that we'd like to acquire.
  2. Pirelli Sottozero, 215VR45-18. Purchased from Tire Rack and mounted on spec.B wheels. I'm in Northern Virginia, suburban Washington, DC. The spec.B is my commuter car. Most mileage is done in suburban driving. Summer tires: Bridgestone RE-050A that came on the car. On cold dry roads, the Sottozero has high roadholding and handling. I haven't driven yet on cold, wet roads. After the first snowfall, I'll post a report. Last winter I used Nokian AWR 215VR50-17 tires for my 2006 spec.B. For the previous two winters I used Nokian WR tires on my 2004 Audi allroad 4.2. The Nokians are good, but the Sottozero easily outperforms them on dry roads. The Nokians were good in the snow. I used Bridgestone Blizzak MZ-02—perhaps they were MZ-01—ice and snow tires for three winters on my 2001 Audi A6 4.2. Those Blizzaks were superb on ice and just as awful on dry roads. I wouldn't buy them again.
