looking into subaru... running costs?
price per service varies dependant on the mileage oil and filter versus full cambelt change - there have been some issues with the STI sharkeye experiencing ringland failure due to constant high revs and potentially not using higher ron fuel - a remap, not done by a subaru dealer as allegedly their maps don't solve the issue either, will protect against that (£300 - £400) also going through top mounts (not a huge expense) so from my experience there were no issues and I really enjoyed the motor. dont buy this car with one eye on your wallet - the mpg is between 21 mpg normal driving around town and 35 on a run. services are between 150 to 500 approx as different places will vary do buy this car for a full on driving experience you will annoy porsche drivers - it put a smile on my face every time I was behind the wheel Pete will hopefully be along shortly with an opinion also :)

advice please on front brakes
You could put some STI or standard WRX brakes on then sell the Pro R calipers on to recoup some of the cost.

Lowered?
what Stanton described can be an issue - the top ones you can crack the nut whilst it is still on the car - don't know about the rears on an outback

Lowered?
change the springs, you will need a set of compressors and the right spanner - the compressors vary in cost I have used these type for many years but they can be a bit fiddly http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2PC-12-COIL-SPRING-COMPRESSOR-CLAMPS-HEAVY-DUTY-/310895021158?pt=UK_Hand_Tools_Equipment&hash=item4862c98c66 these might be a better design http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2pc-Coil-Spring-Compressor-Suspension-Clamps-Kit-Set-Tool-Clamps-Struts-Springs-/321360530142?pt=UK_Hand_Tools_Equipment&hash=item4ad2948ade
