Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport Brand Reputation: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4
6-speed shiftable CVT AWD		 Very high rating from Consumer Reports. Make recommended by son (for AWD) & friends. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2010 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD		 Subaru is known for building good quality cars for a good price. Their zero landfill plants make the WRX a more environmentally friendly decision than the Prius (even with only 25 MPG). And of course, their symmetrical AWD, which surprised even me. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2009 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD		 Supposed to be a good brand, good heritage. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2008 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4

2009 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 I drove Datsuns (a Nissan product) in the 1970s, and switched to Nissan Maximas in fall of 2004. I have owned Maximas of all generations except the first (I did carpool in a 1st gen Maxima for three years). I have always been impressed with the features, styling and performance of Maximas. As long as Nissan continues to give me the best combination of price, performance and features, I see no reason to switch. see full Nissan Maxima review
