Lift it maybe 1" or so (for better suspension travel) and put some BFT AT's on there and go bombing around the forest service roads around here. It could be a fun camping / exploration car and there are thousands and thousand of remote, lightly travel gravel forest roads around here.

It's not going to happen . . . but it's been on my mind.
I offroaded my WRX a bit when I had it. Only major issue with it was it massive front overhang, easy to clip the front end on bumps and steep stuff. Stock WRX suspension was decent for offroading, especially service type roads.
