I love my Baja

It's about time
The vehicle I was looking for was to be used for primarily for around town driving and an occasional trip to the park with the dogs or to the home and garden store. I wanted something more car like not truck like and still have truck bed. This is it. The ride is smooth and the seats hold you in place. Steering and handling are great with the Speed Sensitive Power Steering and AWD. The power is good with the AWD switching the power to the rear wheels. Gas mileage is a little better getting 20-25 mpg. The AWD is easy to use as it does not require my interventions. It is fun to drive and gets a lot of looks.
Great car at an affordable price
This is a great vehicle which allows the versitility of a truck with better gas mileage, more creature comforts and standard all wheel drive and Subaru's infamous safety ratings. It was a Baja vs a Tacoma Doublecab or Frontier Crewcab, styling, standard features with all wheel drive, creature comforts and gas mileage mad this one a no brainer!
The Perfect Hybred
Great versatility & comfort. Perfect car for a Buffalo winter. I like driving a "pickup" in the winter and not worrying about getting there.
Nothing else like it
Analyzed hundreds of vehicles for: Child safety; Appearance; Fun; Economy; Performance; 4-doors; and cargo capacity. Came down to four vehicles: Subaru Baja; Honda Element; Toyota 4Runner and RAV4. Baja came out on top for me. Local Subaru dealership beat my credit union on financing. Also got the '03 Baja well below invoice. Driving the Baja confirms the right choice: AWD, superb handling, tight, solid, and quiet. Fuel economy that is good. Audio upgrade sounds great, and more useful features than a Swiss Army knife. Work for a tech company with a parking lot full of grey BMW and Benz. Glad I didn't go down that expensive and typical route.
Bought 2 Baha's one Red and one Yellow
Brought home the Baha's (2 ), each one had a problem a bad shimmy when you applied the brakes , had to have the rotors cut to stop it . Not a major problem but one that I should have not had to deal with. The power is lacking , something we did not think of when we test drove the car because we did not want to redline it new .needs more power .We still love the cars . we own six Subarus along withthe 2003BahaRed,2003Baha Yellow .As you can see we are a Subaru family .But Love our Bahas, but the Baha could use more power .
New Owner
Had a pickup and hated how it handled. The Baja Classic has the pickup bed and handles well. An excellent compromise, IMO. The bed is on the small size, true, but I actually like that because it means items are within easy reach. I test drove both a stick and auto, liked the auto better, very smooth and it doesn't transfer engine vibration through the steering wheel and shifter like the manual. Gas mileage is a bit on the low side, but it has a big tank and uses regular gas. The cruise stalk behind the steering wheel takes a bit of getting used to. After a couple of weeks of ownership, I am quite pleased with the vehicle.
2003 Baja rates tops
Great vehicle. We've had zero problems. Great gas milage for it's size.
