Consumer Reviews
"I just picked up my new premium hatchback about a week ago, and I absolutely love it. Living in an area that averages 100+ inches of snow a year makes this an optimal vehicle. The heated seats/mirrors are wonderful and quite handy. Blind-spots are minimal, and the front seats are comfortable. I test drove the CVT version and just couldn't stand the delay in acceleration; so I opted for the 5-speed manual and it's much more responsive. That said, this vehicle really needs to be a 6-speed because faster freeway driving really drives the rpms quite high. This could be the key contributor as to why the CVT gets better mileage on the highway. The clutch is very easy to work, and the engine is still rather quiet for a manual."

"I have the hatchback with CVT and premium with weather package which means added traction control, added heated seats, deicer, etc..I also have the power moonroof and LOVE my car. One thing must be noted, I have never had a speeding ticket, and my driving record is spotless. Meaning a WRX or STi would be a waste of money for me, so I knew what I was buying. This car handles perfectly, AWD, and best gas mileage of any AWD car on the market. The impreza hatchback's new bodystyle has made friends and family think I had a VW Golf at first. I made sure to get the extended warranty to 100k miles instead of the standard 36k because I will probably have this car for 8-10 years, if not longer. I have always liked hatchbacks and having this 4 door with a power moonroof gives me everything I need. I work in an office job and in the spring/summer go fishing/camping and even considering of the next time I camp to just fold the seats down and sleep in my car instead of pitching a tent :). I find more excuses to drive this car that I haven't done in years...the last 6-7 years I owned a RWD small pick up truck that doesn't handle half as nice as my impreza.. I only kept the truck for those times I want to do dump runs or pick up heavy stuff..but the subaru impreza hatchback is for everything else that requires driving in my life!"

"Loved handling on snow & ice. Manual paddle shifters are life changing. Drives as automatic in traffic and manual on snow & ice without annoying clutch foot work. Hugs the ground in strong wind. Great handling & turn radius. Seat warmers are amazing."

"Bought a new 2013 Subaru Impreza Sport Premium in Marine Blue. Great exterior looks. Handles nice. Had it for less than a week so no good MPG data just yet. Pretty agile on the surface roads. Seats very confortable and supportive. It has enough power for me, but you'll have to judge that based on your needs. The only thing I don't really like is the red background lighting on the instrumentation and lower center console. Too much red. Would prefer the more typical light blue. For some reason my eyes don't focus on that at night very well."

"I just bought this car about 2 weeks ago. It is a very reliable car and the I feel very safe and comfortable driving it. The handling is great and I have already tested it out in the snow. The exterior/interior are sporty looking. There is a lot of space inside the car for storage and for comfort. I have been averaging about 34 MPG on the highway. Speakers work great and the bluetooth capability is superb. Chris Townsend was my dealer and he was fantastic. He accommodated all my needs and was very helpful with answering all of my questions. He continues to contact me about my car and how everything is going. Overall this car has been great to me so far and I look forward to driving it every day."

"Pros: Exceptional handling and cornering thanks to its AWD. Plenty of room with the seats folded down. This car handles and corners like no other in its class. Although the interior is simple, it doesn't feel cheap (compared to the interior parts of a scion tv or Honda civic/accord). The exterior is visually appealing. Driving through the mountains during a blizzard was done so with relative ease compared to other cars in its class. Standard bluetooth allows connectivity to your phone. Cons: very poor acceleration. A civic goes 0-60 faster. The base speakers and are horrible. Overall this is a great car for those who demands the handling ability of an AWD vehicle. Great for the sports and outdoor enthusiast. Not for the speed demon."

"The sad truth is that not one of the dealers was willing to call me up and make a sale. I am ready to trade in my old sUBARU FOR ANOTHER AND noone made an attempt to sell me a car."

"Love it. Snowed and the Imprezza hugged the road just like it was clear. The AWD is pretty sweet. I have the sedan, limited with leather and would love to have backup camera, otherwise, great."

"I thought I loved driving....little did I know, I had no idea. Impreza handles very well on turns and slick pavement. I'm never buying anything not AWD again!"
