Here's the latest Motorweek update on their long-term Impreza test car:
Date: February 2013 Mileage: 16,000 We're having a lot of fun driving our long term 2012 Subaru Impreza, and that's something we've never said before about a non-WRX version. Our initial concerns the 2.0i Sport hatchback's smaller 148-horsepower I4 being anemic were displaced with the first jab of the throttle. There's good power even if the CVT transmission whines a lot. Long idling on cold mornings, and a lot of city use, have recently taken a toll on fuel economy. Still an average of 28.6 miles per gallon of regular after nearly 16,000 miles, is fine for any all-wheel drive hatchback. Seats get high marks for overall support and comfort, but the dull interior, and cumbersome Nav radio, really saps your spirit on a long drive. We wouldn't ask friends to ride in the back seat for long periods either; too hard. But they fold easily for a wagon's worth of cargo room. So in the end, the Subaru Impreza, continues to impress us a lot. I'm surprised to read that they think the back seats are too hard. I thought rear-seat comfort was a strong point for the Impreza. Or is it just the Limited's leather seats that are hard? |

Wow... I couldn't disagree more. The seats are WAY too soft, and very uncomfortable on longer drives. I can't wait to tear into them to see if I can replace the foam with a replacement that is firmer and of a higher quality.
I did the same for my last two motorcycle seats, but it might be more difficult to duplicate the shape of a car seat. |

Some douche tried to run me off the road tonight with his purple f150. How dare I give him the finger for blinding me with his eyelevel foglights on a perfectly clear night. Dumbass.
None the less, braking and response on the subi was impressive. |

1: hids in halogen reflectors 2: always using fog lights 3: high beams on all the time; behind cars in same direction and not turning them off for incoming traffic. All create unnecessary glare for other drivers. I would totally support mandatory license retesting every time you renew. Both written and a road test. If I have to prove every 6 months I can still fly an airplane, drivers should have to prove they can still drive every 5 years! |

After a good 5 years without a Subaru, we picked up our 2013 on Friday! My wife and I will be sharing it as the "family" car, but it will mostly be her daily driver. I hadn't actually seen Deep Cherry in person when we bought it, but I'm really happy that we searched one out. The Ivory interior feels a lot more "sunny" than the Black IMO. Waltrip Subaru in Franklin, TN was fantastic to deal with.
Looking forward to taking it on the various vacations and family visits we have planned! Last edited by MCarp22; 03-10-2013 at 03:36 AM. |

I choose to drive with them on as a way of making sure people can see my black car. And, well, I just like the way they look. |

It's the dealer. My dealership offered none of this. Instead, I got a great purchase price on the car at a time when they were hard to find and many people were waiting months to get one (June 2012). I don't know if that's still the case.

The next time I go back will be either one of two things: 1. Warranty service (which I hope will not happen for as long as I own this car), or 2. When I decide to buy a BRZ. Although I might go to a different dealership for that. |
