Replying to: shawmou (Feb 17, 2009 8:19 am) I have a young adult son- 22. We have had numerous Subarus and they are all great, safe cars. I have found the Impreza to be much more reliable than the Legacy model. I have a 2008 Impreza Outback Sport of my own and love the handling in city traffic and mountain snow. Just today, it saved my butt on my icy driveway...I hit the brakes and turned sideways, but with a few turns on the glare, the wheels caught and I was on my way to work. I have driven 26K with no problem whatsoever. My son drives my old 2000 Impreza RS 2.5 Coupe. It has 180 K miles and is just starting have some big issues. Probably because he is a rough driver. But, other than suspension, because of his driving, it always starts, drives safely, and doesn't cost me too much in repairs. i think that Subarus are worth the extra money for the AWD, handling, and low repair cost. If you are buying a used car, check the record for # of owners and any questionable issues. |

Replying to: rsholland (Feb 17, 2009 11:27 am)  Thanks for relaying that, Bob. I did not realize the all-weather package was so limited in its availability. I have never cared for seat heaters, but the heated mirrors are wonderful!

Replying to: xwesx (Feb 18, 2009 8:56 am) As for heated seats, I love them, and won't likely buy a car without that feature; same with the heated mirrors. Bob |

Replying to: rsholland (Feb 17, 2009 11:27 am) I once measured Outback vs. Legacy, and the seats was a whopping 4" higher up. I know the suspension accounts for half, but not all of that difference. I wonder if the OBS is the same way? Higher mounted seats?

I think all Impreza models have no keyless entry except WRX.
