Used 2003 Subaru Baja Consumer Reviews
The Out-Brat is fun!
After wrecking my 1999 Ranger, the Baja was on my radar, but not the major focus. After driving one, I was hooked. The Baja was a fun little car to drive. After some thought, the trade- off of a smaller cargo capacity for much better fuel mileage was worth it. The Baja gets 5-7mpg more than the 4x4 compact trucks I was looking at. Even on the Sport trim, there is a long list of standard features. Seats are comfortable enough and there is decent headroom even with the moon roof. Could use a bit more in the way of power under the hood, but the Boxer-4 is more than enough for everyday driving.
Listen To The Owners
Went looking on a whim. Surprised at how large and rugged this vehicle was. Drives great, tight. Interior reminds me of BMW (in a good way). Went with the all silver design. Looks sharp. Sub. does a disservice by using the yellow and silver with those mickey mouse spot lights as its "show" car. In monochrome, this car would appeal to much wider audience. You'll especially love this vehicle if your used to driving alone or with only a front seat passenger. That way, you can use the folded down rear seat area as your "trunk" (the tinted rear windows serves well to hide valuables) and the flat bed for the occasional cargo haul.

First Subaru
Other car is a 99 Corvette and I'd rather drive the Baja.
Love the Baja !!!
Bought a new Baja in Maine and drove it to Florida. What a fun drive it was. The Baja turns lots of heads and people want to know about it. Either you like it, or you don't. If you do, then you will have lots of fun with it. Very nice "car" on the inside, and a nice "trucklet" on the outside. Try it ... you'll like it.
My Double Duty Vehicle-2003 Subaru Baja
Living in a mtn.desert, the Baja proved to be just the right combo vehicle I needed for daily use with the added utility of the versatile extendable bed. With the opt. bed extender & bike rack, this vehicle has proven to be the one I drive everywhere. Complements from strangers started day 1. Mileage with regular fuel at mid to upper 20's was a pleasant surprise. A clutch replacement at nearly 18,000 mi should have been changed the first month. The hepa air filter is very efficient. Backseat passengers are amazed by the comfort. Pellagrino bottles in any of the cup holders is a 1st. So much better then a Truck.
