2012 4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L H4
6-speed shiftable CVT AWD		 Lived up to reputation, one year 20,000 miles no repairs. see full Subaru Outback review
2012 4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L H4
6-speed shiftable CVT AWD		 This is our 3rd Outback and 10th Subaru with ours and our kids. We love Subaru's. Safety was the reason we purchased our first Subie, a '95 Legacy, for our daughter. All wheel drive and the other safety features of Subaru sold us. We still feel like our Subaru's give us an edge in any unexpected unpleasant situation on the road. When Subaru came to the U.S., it was known for quirky fun vehicles. The Subaru's of today remain fun, but a lot of the quirkiness is gone. In design and execution, they seem more mainstream now. Our Subaru's have been reliable. The all wheel drive system seems bullet proof and with one exception the engines have been the same. Our '99 Outback has had an overheating gremlin. With normal maintenance a Subaru can be trouble free. see full Subaru Outback review

2008 4dr Sedan 306-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 This is my 3rd Infiniti. I always buy low mileage used cars that still have some warranty on them. This is the most trouble i have had with an Infiniti. ALso had a Maxima too - which is very similar. Love the Infiniti's handling, performance, looks, reliability (usually) and features. Good mix of luxury and sport - more on the side of sport. see full Infiniti G review

2006 2dr Coupe 280-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 I live in the sticks of northern NY (firmly in Mustang/Monte Carlo country) and I get complimented at least weekly on the car's classy appearance, the exhaust note, or the prestigious brand. It stands out like a sore thumb among all the domestic coupes up here, and I wouldn't have it any other way. see full Infiniti G review
2005 4dr Sedan 280-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Infiniti is right up there with Lexus and Acura for reputation, but neither of them can match the performance you get with an Infiniti. As good as a BMW for a lot less money, and a lot more reliable. see full Infiniti G review
