PZEV gives up I think 5hp, probably not noticeable, and has the same fuel economy ratings.
 
Forget all that, though, what matters is that because it's a PZEV the emissions warranty is MUCH longer, I think all that stuff is covered for 100k miles. I'm talking the cat and all the expensive emissions stuff.
 
That's worth getting a PZEV for all by itself.

Ours is not PZEV, but the next one will be. As more states are adopting those requirements, PZEVs are easier to get now.
 
We were pleased when we first achieved over the 30MPG hwy rating on our Legacy. We've noticed a small bump (1-2 MPG increase) as the engine has become "broken in" (15,000-19,000 miles), and this seems to be fairly common. If you drive in a gentle manner, I think it's possible to get good mileage. Of course, whenever we drive a bit more aggressively (say, stomping it on the freeway onramp), the MPG goes down.

If PZEV models are offered in MD we'd get one, too. In fact I hope the 2009 Forester comes with a PZEV powertrain.

Check out Heritage Subaru in Owings Mills, MD. Many of their models in their online list of inventory show PZEV. I don't know anything about the dealership though.

Interesting. It's not mandated in MD, though, so I wonder if it still gets the emissions warranty.

the 08 brochures say the extended warranty only applies to cars in the states where PZEV is mandated

They seem to be few & far between. My dealer in Seattle has one in stock and I stumbled upon one online at Camelback in Phoenix.

And only because they have to.
