I wanted a reliable car that would last forever. I bought the vase model and feel this fits my need. The downside for most is the slow acceleration. Honestly how fast do you need to go to merge. The comfort in this vehicle is amazing. I haven't noticed a blind spot. I am 5'1" tall and the ease of getting in and out of this vehicle is awesome. Not to mention the driver seat adjusts perfectly. I love this SUV and have ordered my badges. Also if you see Sula (that's her name. Sula the Subaru) say hi 😄

I had a ‘05 Forester for the past 10 years and wanted to stick with Subaru for my next car. I knew before I even visited the dealership that the crosstrek was going to be the model for me! And believe me, it has not disappointed! I’ve been driving it for about three months and currently have about 4,000 miles. I do a 66 mile round trip commute 7 or 8 times a week and I still get excited to drive it! I specifically requested a manual transmission, I have been 100% happy with my decision. It’s worth noting that with the manual you will miss out on the eyesight technology, which I’ve driven with before and didn’t feel it was a necessity for me. I would much rather save the $1000+ on the final price tag. Overall this small SUV is comfy, much more spacious than you’d think, and the cargo area is less than my Forester but still gets the job done! I love how it handles in the rain and snow as well as the grip you feel taking curves at highway speeds. The brakes have already been a life saver when a confused deer ran out in front of me - I was able to come to a dead stop from ~30mph while it stood inches from my bumper. That experience just added to the already high level of safety I feel in my crosstrek. One less important feature that I absolutely love...the orange stitching on the black interior and steering wheel! I actually really love how the stitching feels on the leather steering wheel, I had no idea how much something like that could contribute to the comfort of driving, but it does! Another perk that sold me is the 1500lb towing capacity, I needed something I could hitch a small trailer to for transporting my motorcycle. The only CONS I can think of would be lack of interior compartments for the driver. I would’ve loved to have a designated place to keep my sunglasses! And I was told the premium model didn’t have an option for a moon roof which I admit was a little disappointing.

To start I have owned two Subaru's before this. The first was a 92 legacy wagon and the second was a 2000 Legacy wagon. In the past few year I have gotten into working and owning my fun car from the Italian car market and loved it. My daily was a BMW 325xi Dinan and it did great. I missed my Subaru and the places it could take me. I settled on selling my daily and buying the Crosstrek thinking I would just dip my toe into the market again. I leased it and within two days knew I was going to own it after the lease. This car does it all, like most Subaru's do, and it cant be stopped. I am still acitiavly looking for a situation that I cant get out of. The daily road mileage is excellent and the off-road capability is outstanding.

This is the last car of my life and I could not have made a better decision. The safety features of this car will not only keep me safe but has made me a safer driver. So I expect to grow into all of the navigation and entertainment features as life goes on and on and on. I was extremely pleased with Charles, my salesperson. He was knowledgable and helpful without being overwhelming. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Note that I traded in my late model Escape for the Subaru. The Crosstrek is a peppy, smart-looking, car with a lot going for it. It does fall a bit short in other ways, though. First the pluses. The look is great, and the off-road manners make it easy to forget I'm not in my Jeep Wrangler or F-150. It really handles the trails and ruts with ease. On the road, the Crosstrek feels a bit light, with a very tight steering that takes a bit of getting used to. It wanders a bit in the lane and is easily influenced by road surface with an unexpected pull to the left or right rather often. No oversteer or understeer in turns, however. Engine is capable, though not strong and with the CVT, doesn't struggle to find shift points like a standard automatic transmission. Brakes are great and leave you feeling the car is glued to the road. No chassis lean in turns either. The interior is rather spartan, typical for this price point. Controls are good old knobs and switches, easy to operate and less likely to fail. The touch screen offers google auto, something that fails to link as often as not. Radio cannot be turned off and when the car is restarted, it welcomes you at whatever volume it was set to last. The only fix is to set volume to zero. Handles mounted to the ceiling for entry and exit are angled almost horizontally leaving me to wonder if they will fail with heavy use. Lane departure warnings often warn you when traversing tarred cracks in the roadway and can prove annoying on winding roads where you may cut turns a bit. My Ford Escape, albeit pricier, felt heavier, more substantial and built with more solidity. Closing the doors on the Suburu don't give that tight thud, more of a hollow sound. Open the window and squeeze the outer and inner door panels together. They bend very easily leaving a cheap feeling. The Honda HRV was even worse. That's the low price point again. All in all, I'm happy with the Subaru. It's a very inexpensive car which tries to hide that in many ways and succeeds in most.
