He named like 10 things that weren't good bout the car, why did? it make thier top pick?
What year legacy did you get and what MPG are you getting out of it??
it scores only 4 stars overall with 5 stars on rollover. yes it's safe but it doesn't score? a perfect 5 in it's class.
The front leg room is much less than the current Legacy but on paper the Impreza has 1/2 an inch greater? leg room. What's up with that?
I have the Sport Limited and with only 700 miles on the odo, commute is 12 miles? round trip in suburban stop and go traffic. Avg 27 mpg. On highway I am getting around 34. I only expect it to go up as the car is so new. No complaints even with the current gas consumption.
They only picked the car so toyota didn't win every group. Corolla is a better car then this.?
Something wrong there, ddcap1. I have the new Impreza and did a hiway test of about? 120 miles and got a little over 37, and it was windy and a fair number of hills. Given more flats and less wind, there's no doubt it'll do 40mpg highway.
You are so hot!!!?
Change your driving habits and you should easily be able to beat EPA estimates. I know, it might be a little difficult accepting? that you may be at fault for your poor mileage, but it is usually the case.
Smart; Buy an AWD drive car and expecting high mileage, not happening; and now you don't want another Subbie despite the fact they have? more values than gas mileage. These things practically last forever and have great residual value. Also, I'd love to see a Prius get through 4 or more inches of snow.
DO NOT get this car if you want good mpg! go to NASIOC and look up 2012 impreza mpg thread or fuelly.com and see for yourself....most people are only getting in the mid-high 20s, not even close to the high 30s. we bought our impreza limited in feb. we now have 5,200 miles, all highway, and only getting mid 20s...dealer? says it needs at least 10,000 miles break in period to see those numbers. dont take my word, look it up yourself on NASIOC or fuelly.com. ..this my first and last subaru
??? :-/ Elantra better than Impreza? Ha ha ha.?
2:40 You're lucky to get seat heaters at all,? Tom Mutchler!
Standard AWD, better safety, better value, excellent ride, reliability that's? almost impeccable, and it has a sport model if wanted, the WRX STi.
How is the the Impreza better? than the Hyundai Elantra?
Got Legacy with manual.? Trans was hard to shift for first 6 month, got really smooth after. Love it
I still enjoy driving my 05 Impreza like it was brand new !!! also happy that I'm able to see? the front of the hood in the 2012 model ... the Impreza is at the top of my shopping list for my next vehicle purchase with AWD.
I just got my Impreza sport 3 weeks ago Its a fun? car to drive
I'd by the XV in Diesel if it? was on offer.
I ordered a Sport? Limited, can't wait
Subaru is? AMAZING!!!
With this mileage and the lower vehicle weight you actually have better range than the old car - in spite of the smaller tank. Check out some other reviews that mention it specifically, or do the math.? =)
Buy it!! I'm gonna get one in the next couple months.
Love? cvt.
How's the manual? Is it? smooth like a Honda or rough?
