Didn't drive it, but 5 mins in driver's seat was enuf for me. It was a new Forester turbo wagon (like the WRX it's an Impreza in a different suit). Cheap looking stuff everywhere and hard seats. All for $25K and it gets only 23 mpg highway. I liked the sport seats in the WRX better, but at 6'2" 200 lbs I knew they wouldn't be nice on a long haul, or even wearing a jacket.
I think Subys are in general nice cars, but are not in the same league as a Saab.
My $10K went on a very clean '96 9000 CSE with 90K miles, a 2-year warranty, new tires on Aero wheels, snows on alloys, and all the trouble spots already done. Not an Aero, but still pretty nice.
By comparison, $10K at the local Suby store the week I bought the 9K would have gotten a 98 Outback wagon with 85K on it.
Interesting how the value is so different to different people, as the other posts in this thread have noted.
