Always will own a Subaru!!
I agree with the other review on this year!Yes,parts can be expensive BUT weigh the amount of repairs(minimal)on Subarus compared to North American cars,of the same year,Fords and Chevs come to mind....
Before I bought my Subaru,I had a 2002 Ford Focus wagon.I was putting repair after repair on it and it had major rear end problems which caused the tires to wear and the tranny was going and it had only 170,00 kms on it!My Subaru has289,000 kms on it and works great,no major or expensive repairs,just replacing worn out parts-like brake pads and the altenator.And regularly changing the oil helps a lot.
Next car willdefinately be a Subaru!
