Best car I have purchased so far.

The Outback exceeds of my expectations. So far it has the best performance, excellent exterior and interior quality, excellent Subaru customer and maintenance support, best basic and extended warranty in the market, and the dealer made the whole purchasing process very simple, honest, and straightforward.

Beautiful, Modern Design

We bought it because of the new safety features. They are well designed and fill a real need for us. The new advances and the reasonable price caused our decision to be made in just a few moments. There are no regrets that sometimes can create regrets after a car buying experience.

So Glad to be back in a Subaru

On October 31, 2017 we purchased a new 2018 Subaru Outback. An encounter with a deer had just totaled our 2010 Subaru Outback, much to our consternation! We love the fabulous new features, including the dual climate controls and rear lift gate operation.

1st Lease - So far, so good

Have had four Subaru's, love the performance, repair is a bugger though. The technology in this car far surpasses all others owned, a bit confusing at first.
