Pros

Very upscale, great interior, great low torque, smooth & quiet,  loaded with options, great dash look, leather is supple, agressive faccia.

Cons

Steering response and road feel on vanilla side. Slight body roll a bit lumbering in turns. Premium sound system not up to snuff for audiofiles.

Very Nice Auto In Many Ways. Not A Hellcat Performance- Wise Like My 4th Gen 2.5gt — I think I said it all above. If you need to be the fastest one on the road, keep looking. If you want to balance luxury, bells & whistles with solid performance and all weather confidence, this should be on your short list. Refined, roomy, powerful and compliant. I'm only 600 miles into my experience with this 2012.

Best Car For Your Money. Buy A Subaru - Join The Family — This is my first Subaru and the best overall car I have ever owned when it comes to simply getting you to your final destination. I can trust that I won't have any wild reliability issues and when I go to sell my Subaru I know I will get most of my money back.
