Car only has 3000 miles [not 'broken in' yet!] and I'm getting 27-29 mpg city, 34 highway [85/15%] - using math, not dash computer. Doing posted speed; cruise control whenever possible; no jack-rabbiting. Can't wait until it's broken in!! Didn't want the biggest car, the fastest car, the most impressive car. Wanted reliable, safe, nimble and GREAT gas mileage and my Impreza delivers on all counts. Gets me to my destination with no worries about road/weather conditions. Nimble steering; low profile not bothered much by high winds. Ride comfort is acceptable. Main complaint is the red dash lite - really? What idiot OK'd that?? Bluetooth great, radio could be better but have had much worse.
Totally in love until... 136,500 miles

My family has been buying Subaru's my whole life. We've always driven them "into the ground" if you will. I commute a total of 64 miles a day and travel a lot through out the year. I love hiking and mountain biking and this Subaru was the perfect fit for my life style. Even my Great Pyrenees loves it! At 26,000 miles, my center differential went bad and Subaru gave me a brand new CVT Transmission. I've kept up with all my maintenance and take pride in keeping my car in great condition. At 136,500 miles, I started noticing a shudder in my transmission. Mainly in first and second gear. Then the next day, it was significantly worse. I experience the shudder in third and fourth gear, but not as bad. I contacted Subaru of America since they extended the warranty on the CVT by 100,000 due to customer complaints. I'm obviously over that limit and they weren't too willing to help out. The best option they had was to give me a trade-in with credits towards a new Subaru. I'm hesitant to take this offer and haven't made a decision yet, but I wanted to share my story. I really, really love this car. It brings me to tears to think I might sell it. I hope this helps someone else <3

After 1 year driving this car, overall I"m fairly happy with it. Good: Excellent mileage for AWD vehicle and weight of car - safety good Very roomy front leg room for tall people Great visibility Car does not get stuck in snow Needs improvement: Braking worse than Honda FIt I had before on slick roads in spite of AWD Bouncy suspension Loose steering - not the greatest at holding in lanes at expressway speeds No padding the seats - took ages for me to get used to them and still not great for long trips If I wasn't living in snow country I wouldn't have this car. The steering is more than annoying and the traction at least on the wagon version of the Impreza is strange. If the steering was better I would like it much better than I do - maybe my car is flawed. Cannot recommend this car however.

Impreza Sport Limited

Bought my Subuaru Impreza Sport Limited hatchback from Len Ciotti at Doyle Subaru in Webster. Len had been helping me look for a car for a few months before that. No pressure in purchasing the vehicle at all, he would let me test drive whenever I had the time to do so and he helped me find a car that was within my budget. The car had even more features than I initially knew about when I bought the car. Heated leather seats, heated side mirrors, heated windshield wipers, rear view camera, touch to talk bluetooth capabilities, auto dimming rear view mirror, and automatic climate control to name a few. This was the car I have been looking for. I have only had it for a few weeks and this is my third Subaru now. So far it rides very smooth and is surprisingly quiet. Being that it is the limited edition it is very comfortable and I do feel slightly higher off the ground than in my previous Impreza sedan. Slightly higher gas mileage in the city than my previous Subaru as well. I can't attest to the maintenance yet. It has snowed a couple of times and it handles well, gripping the road around turns and not slipping from a stop. I would recommend this car to anyone, but I am little biased being a loyal Subaru fan.

I bought my Impreza with about 108,000 miles on it and I've put about 10,000 miles on it and it is a fantastic car. It comes standard with Subaru's A-Symmetrical All Wheel Drive, which is great if you live in areas where it snows, it gets great fuel economy, the interior slightly better than what you would find in some other cars at this size and price point, and it has been rock-solid reliable. The handling is not sporty, but it is sharp and confident which makes it very comfortable at highway speeds. Subaru designed a new engine in the redesigned Impreza in 2013, so it no longer suffers from a head gasket issue, which has been a costly repair for past Subaru owners. It also earned the IIHS Top Safety Pick Award in the Small Overlap Front, Moderate Overlap Front, and Side crash tests. It also has a lot of backseat room and trunk space for how small it is, you can fit 3 people in the back but the middle seat is small so it is better with just 2 people. Another item of note is that Bluetooth phone connectivity is standard on all except for the base trim. The only downsides to this car is that the engine, a 2.0 Liter Boxer 4-Cylinder, provides mediocre performance and sounds like it's running out of breath when merging onto a highway on-ramp, but then again, it is in no way marketed to be a Sports Car; if you want that, go get yourself a WRX. The CVT (continuously variable transmission) works well in improving fuel economy, but it does amplify engine noise when you need the extra power to accelerate. The standard sound system isn't the best, but other than those minor annoyances, this car is fantastic. I would definitely recommend it to anyone in the market for a safe, reliable, and efficient economy car.
