The best and safest car I have ever owned!

I love this vehicle. Not only did it receive the IIHS top safety pick, but it saved mine and my sons life a little over a year ago. When we were hit after an SUV ran a red light, I walked away with minor bruising and my infant son completely unscathed. We might not have been here today if it hadn't been for my Subaru. My car was totaled, but we walked away safe and unharmed. I went out and bought another Subaru Impreza because my sons safety is so important to me. This is a great family car, with all the amenities you could want in a sedan while remaining affordable. It's gotten me where I needed to go, near or far, without problems. The exterior is sleek and modern, timeless and neat. It's a smooth ride which could use a little more of a pick me up as far as acceleration goes but it's really not an issue for me. I recommend this car to everyone I know. It's the best car I've ever owned based on it's safety, reliability and you can't beat the price. I will continue to purchase from Subaru in the future.

No one told me it would have a built-alarm system. That gave me a discount on my car insurance!

There is no truck release button or switch inside the cabin. You gotta physically open the truck. Another issue is power. It’s low powered. Need to step to 4000 to 5000 to start from stop to keep up with other cars. One more thing is volume for navigation reset every time you restart the car to the factory default. Very annoying. It has rear parking sensors but do not have front parking sensors.

Drove 02 outback for last 4 years, got this 18 Impreza 6 weeks ago and loved it every drive. Awesome handling, smooth transition, great braking, feels heavy and safe.
90 mph on 2 lane roads feels like 120 mph

The steering ratio on the new Impreza global platform requires a heavy hand on the steering wheel to keep it on the road. Our other new 2018 Hyundai Ioniq has the perfect steering ratio and you can drive it with the little finger of one hand. But the Impreza requires constant 2 handed heavy hands to keep it on the highway At one point I was passing 2 semi's on a 2 lane road and ended up having to pass them at over 90mph to avoid other traffic and at that speed it felt like it was going to go airborne and fly off the road. It was that unstable at 90mph and felt like going 120mph --and it was a safety issue. So I dont recommend driving it over 70 mph under any condition. Replacing the Continental low end tires with high performance Michelin highway tires might help stabilize it. Apparently they changed the steering ratio from 16 to 1 down to 13 to 1 with the new global platform and thats why you have to drive it with such a heavy hand.. and I consider it a serious safety issue. For instance, if you just touch the steering wheel a tiny fraction, you will be off the road in an instant. Thats what I mean about driving it with a heavy hand. None of our other 5 cars have that issue with such critical heavy handed steering. I'm going to contact Subaru about the new Impreza steering issue. Also, the air conditioning with the outside air temp over 90 degs cant keep up with it. I asked the dealer to verify the A/C was working properly and they said it was. Temp less than 80 degs F range allows the A/C to handle it. But anything higher up into the 90 deg F range is marginal A/C performance compared to our other 5 cars. Update after 6 months: Unfortunately, after only 1 month of use, one of the low quality Continental tires developed a crack in the sidewall which is not repairable. So I had all the tires replaced with high quality Michelin all season tires. The Impreza drives a little better with higher quality tires but still requires a heavy hand on the steering wheel at all times. I should have purchased the Outback Subaru rather than the Impreza but the Impreza does seem to handle well on snow and ice without loosing traction. Its just that the low ground clearance of the Impreza dosnt lend itself to driving in heavy snow. The big drawback of the new Impreza is always having to have such a heavy hand on the steering wheel at all times. Then the first day of snow this fall some tiny bits of road sanding broke the windshield so now the the windshield needs replacement. So in the first 3000 miles both the tires and the windshield have failed.
