good ride

1990 Subaru Loyale 4dr Sedan
I have a 2wd w/ 5spd. It was a hand me
down but I have had no reason to
complain. I got it w/ 155000 miles and
it now has 230000 reliable miles on
it. The only semi-major repairs have
been a water pump and altenator, which
usually wear out after that many miles
on any car. For a cheap car, the build
quality is great and the interior
materials are far superior to … anything
domestic. Gas mileage is 34 for mix
driving. It's not fast, but it's
cheap, reliable transportation.

1990 Subaru Loyale 4dr Sedan 4WD
We bought this car from a family
member 3 years ago. It has a peppy
engine and after a brief engine
problem, it has never failed us. We've
put over 29,000 miles on it without a
problem. The 4WD works like a gem.
It's a 5 speed manual and I get 35
miles to the gallon on the highway and
around 27 in the city.

My 4wd subaru loyale wagon
K. Spernak , 08/13/2003
1990 Subaru Loyale 4dr Wagon 4WD
If you are looking for a great ski car
this is the one! My 1990 subaru
wagon will plow through the snow
when I see SUV's stuck on the side
of the road. I drive to the ski
mountain five or six days a week
during the winter months. During the
summer time it is a great car for
lugging around my climbing gear on
back roads. If this car can handle
southern oregon/ northern … california
roads and weather it will take
anything any other part of the country
will offer. If you are a ski bum or
outdoor recreationalist this is the car
for you!

4WD Subaru
GXE, 12/05/2003
1990 Subaru Loyale Turbo 4dr Wagon 4WD
This car is very dependable. Has never
left me stranded and has gone through
some high snowfall winters with no
problems. Great gas mileage and the 4WD
makes winter driving real easy. The
only downside is that this car seems to
rust to pieces underneath. Almost all
my repairs have been due to rust. In
addition this car is notorious for
engine oil leaks - don't bother … getting
it done - just live with it. I had the
engine rebuilt and 2 years later is
leaking again
