 Favorite feature:

The silent and turbine smooth Boxer-6 engine

 Least favorite feature:

The fact that the seat heaters are all or nothing

 Advice to buyer:

Get the H6-3.0; this car needs the power.

 Detailed review:

This wagon can accomodate 5 people, their luggage, and skis for a week-long ski trip. It is exceptionally smooth, well built, and quiet. The H-6 is an exceptional engine that is superior to it's eupropean compition. GM should use Subaru's engines in it's Saab line. I can only imagine it as a Saab Turbo. Overall the Subaru is a better car the Volvo, and it's all-wheel drive system is technically superior to both the Audi and Volvo. This is a great family car, and I would recomend it to and SUV owner as well. Way to go GM for buying Fugi Heavy Industry.
