Love this car

2016 Subaru Crosstrek 2.0i Limited PZEV 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
I test drove the Rav4, the CX5, and the Jeep Renegade before deciding on the XV. It was by far the most comfortable, smooth ride, with no tip-over feeling whenever I made a turn. I don't know what noisy cabin people are referring to. I've driven this from Los Angeles to San Diego already and have had no complaints so far. Looking forward to many more road trips.
My Favorite Car

2016 Subaru Crosstrek 2.0i Limited PZEV 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
I bought the 2016 Crosstrek Limited in December, at the start of the New England winter, and I love how this car drives. I love the handling, the Eyesight, the cruise control, and the issues with the noise? What noise. Inside we have the leather seats, and they are the most comfortable seats I have had in a car. This is my first Subaru, and I intend to be a loyal Subaru driver for years … to come. Everything about this vehicle is a breeze. I got mine fully loaded, and could not be happier.
Lots of Room & Comfort

2016 Subaru Crosstrek 2.0i Limited PZEV 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
I never "LOVE" a vehicle. I love this one. I have driven in snow, ice, rain, fog and used it to climb paved mountains. I totally disagree with the review that says it doesn't have much power. I have had no problems with acceleration or climbing. The gas mileage is amazing. I am getting close to 400 miles per fill up. For this reason I haven't driven my Mercedes ML350 since I bought … the Subaru. It may go on Craigslist soon. Very roomy. My son fits fine with lots of leg room and headroom. He is 6'5. Ample backseat space. The body type looks much more luxury than any of the Subaru's. I went to buy a Forester and walked away the Limited Crosstrek. If I have any complaint it would be the orange stitching on the leather seats.
Great car, Cheap Paint!

Took a star off my overall rating for the cheap paint they use, which scratches easily and shows, especially if you have a dark color. I have some shrubs on one side of my driveway, and my other cars can brush them without a problem. No so with the Subaru. Apparently, the paint issue is a common complaint on Subaru owners forums.
