All wheel drive is awesome.

Not a top of the line model so less comforts - I wish I had heated seats and a moonroof. But built to last and dependable.

People should know that my car has lasted over 10 years without any major issues!

I like that it is low to the ground. It handles well in the snow. It gets very good gas mileage.

It is incredibly reliable! It has been such a great drive with very few mechanical issues at all.

Outside of a slightly flimsy bumper, I love my subaru. It's been so much fun to drive and I feel like it is an incredibly safe ride for my whole family. It holds a ton of stuff even with 4 people loaded in the car.

The best vehicles I have ever owned

This is the first Subaru I have owned and I love it. The seats are very comfortable and I am able to adjust the driver seat so I can comfortably reach the accelerator and the clutch which can be difficult for me as I am only 5'1' and I do not like my right knee to be too bent when driving. The car drives smoothly and is easy to control. I love the 4 wheel drive (even though all the tires have to match exactly) especially in the winter. I have always hated winter driving but find it much nicer with this car and I don't feel like it will lose control as easily as other cars I've had. The only issue I have with this Subaru and others are the faulty head gaskets. I wish Subaru would use better quality gaskets and replace the faulty ones under a voluntary recall.

100,000 mile engine warranty and 60,000 overall.

I like the body style, the fact that it is all wheel drive, fast, very nice, decent family size car. No complaints.

Change the oil frequently most Subaru’s go through oil.

The Subaru Impreza has been a great car, honestly I haven't taken care of it much and she still drives like a brand new, I plan on forever driving a Subaru, the all wheel drive is good for all four seasons and off-roading even if something breaks down chances are you can make it a couple miles before it officially shuts down I give the Impreza 10/10 in my book.

The little Impreza that can just about do anything, and go anywhere!

I love the versatility of my Subaru. I use it for many things like my daily driver, camping, going on dirt and gravel roads, and snowboarding. I do not think I'll ever own another vehicle that is not AWD. It is a amazing to drive it all types of weather conditions. I am even able to autocross it competitively which just adds to my love of the vehicle.

A good car built to last.

My car is perfect for me, it is not too big or too small. It is designed so I can go shopping and have plenty of room to bring most purchase home with me. It is comfortable to drive, great for my dogs, grandkids and myself. Even my oldest grandson likes it as much as his truck. Best thing is its reliability, bought in 2008 the only thing I have had to replace is the battery and the tires. How good can it get for someone who hates to spend money on cars.

, Impreza's motor is probably fine but not the inside of the body.

There was a recall last year for break rust. Last month car needed new front pads and rotors. Front sway bar bushing worn. Page head gasket started to leak. To replace cost $ 2, 500. 00. Needs to replace left rear tams sensor. Inside paint parts scratch too easily, upholstery from sides on floor came off.

Smell it carefully when you take it on a test drive. Read reviews. I like Subaru, but this was not one of the better ones I've owned.

I like that it is reliable transportation on our hills in winter. I hate that the airbag recall is a pain in the butt to respond to on our island. I also hate that the molded plastic used in the interior poisoned me for a while.

2007 Subaru Impreza outback ??sport.

The car is a nice, little, powerful car. It is super spacious inside and I love that the seats fold all the way down. It also comes with a roof rack, which I enjoy because I like to go on adventures and be able to strap things to the roof. It also drives pretty smooth and gets great gas mileage. It is probably one of the safest cars that I have driven, that even after 12+ years and 200,000 I would have no issues driving it somewhere far.

Get something else or upgrade when things start going wrong.

Much of the engine needed replaced a year ago. It comes up with a new leak every 6 months on average. It's too small for a car seat (if anyone wants to sit in the front).

Rob O

The Impreza is a small boxy type vehicle, makes me pray not to get in a wreck.

The Impreza is a piece, the flat 4 cylinder engine leaks oil. And the car has hardly no power. Do not pull out in front of any bicycles much less another car. It has roughly 120. 000 miles on it. And if you fix your own stuff like me, almost everything has to come from the dealer.

It's not brand new but it was reasonable in price and still gets alright gas mileage.

It's a great car. Reasonably fuel efficient, has not been too costly in repairs over time which is nice. However there was an airbag recall for a few years where the company did not have a solution and instead said do not use the passenger seat.. Funny because the drivers airbag is the same. Felt unsafe in that regard.

Ann g

It lasted all these years with minimal repairs costs. It is easy to handle in bad weather..

I like It's durability. I do not like the seats. It is all wheel drive which lessens MPG.
