Fun Driver

Bought it for a tow car behind our new motorhome....but we can't keep our hands off of it. Out of the 3 vehicles we own this is the one we choose most all the time!! It's a stick shift and it's very fun to drive.

Just what I was looking for

I've owned 4 Subarus before this one, so i'm obviously a fan. I bought the Crosstrek because I wanted a compact car with decent gas mileage that I could occasionally take off road. I was concerned that the 2.0 liter engine may not have sufficient power, but that concern disappeared after I owned the car for a few months. It has enough horsepower for almost all circumstances. I've taken this car off road a few times, and I'm very satisfied with the performance. It has traveled very rough, rocky, and steep roads better than I expected. I highly recommend this car, and I would buy another one myself.

Very Happily Surprised - Much More Than I Expected

I've only had my Limited since Dec. 31 and 600 miles but it's been flawless and appears to be even more of a "find" and "value" than I expected. A very practical vehicle with legendary AWD and durability, at least this Subaru model also has very good design, comfort and overall appearance. Great handling, surprisingly good and improving fuel economy, excellent braking and more-than-adequate power/acceleration in real-world situations complete this delightful package. (See the "1st Subaru" review of the 2014 model for additional comments that reflect mine for the 'improved' 2015.) In short, I'm a very, very happy camper to date!
