Get the Sport Trim
Coming from a WRX that I’ve had for 9 years, I was looking for better ride, interior comfort etc. I tried a premium Legacy but that base engine didn’t do it for me. The Sport really feels like a big sedan with big power and has updated handling without the stiffness. It’s quiet and composed. I can’t find any flaws at this time. Purchased for mid $30’s and with all the extras so to speak, I feel like this is a bargain luxury car. The only thing it doesn’t have is leather seating but has that combo fake leather and cloth. I find them to be extremely comfortable. Love the interior as well.

Disappointed
Although this car drives nice and has many nice features especially a big screen to view all applications, there are some flaws. First the driver's door fit is not fit very well. You must firmly shut it which in my previous Subaru was not the case. The rear window defogger is anemic at best and does not clear ice or snow but merely a fogged window. The door opener does not work unless the car is on which in the previous model, it was powered all the time. The car is not as quiet in the cabin as my previous model. The trunk opener is improved and opens all the way when you use the remote. The heated seats are warmer, and the gas tank opens much better than the previous model.

Clearcoat/Paint trouble
I just bought this car in January and the clearcoat/paint is defective. Took it to my local body shop and was told the entire car needs painted. It's not acid rain as my new car is parked next to my 2012 Legacy and my daughter's 2014 Ford Escape and there is no problem with their clearcoat/paint.
Really good car just couple of small issues
My car is only 14 months and has 7800 miles. My issues are: when traveling during heavy rain my eyesight messaging system is not working and this has happened twice don’t understand why? My tire pressure warning system doesn’t register correctly, when I put 33 pounds front it registers 32 lbs and when I put in 32 lbs rear and it registers 31 lbs I know the tire pressure machine is correct because I’m using the Costco tire pressure machine and it registers correctly. I also had a blockage in the air conditioning out pipe and the dealer took care of that. Other then that I get great mileage, got as high as 48 and a combo 34 so I’m very happy we that.

Great ride
I spent a fair amount of time comparing sedans in this class. I chose the Subaru because the cabin fit (I'm tall and don't fit in any of the vehicles with moon roofs. After eliminating those this model had the best trim package/cabin fit combo for me.) The sales staff was very friendly, no pressure at all. The price was great and the car looks very stylish. The rear seats fold down, providing more storage width than others in this class. This is my first Subaru, looking forward to many years with it.
