1993 Subaru Loyale 4dr Sedan
traded in a 1989 Corsica for this, was a very good
trade overall ... had it for 11 years, my sibling
had it for another 4 ... Good interior design, very roomy for such a small car.
Gas mileage was ok, about 26 mpg overall.
Traction in winter was ok considering it did not have 4wd, though the 13" wheels could not go into deep heavy snow.
Watch out for the three-part cat. converter, … is
expensive to replace.
Watch out for oil leaks though is not really an
issue.
watch out for auto-trans., it did not like to
shift back to 1st upon stopping without help
from the shift lever.
watch for rust on left rear fender though it
does progress slowly
watch for headlight bulbs, I went through a few
Not a bad car.

1992 Subaru Loyale 4dr Wagon 4WD
Although this is a rather dependable
veh, the biggest problem is the repair
costs. The replacement parts for this
car are insane. Many times mechanics,
other than actual Subaru delears, are
unable or unwilling to do the work due
to the complexity of the design. For a
low end automobile this not a good
thing.

1992 Subaru Loyale 4dr Sedan
I own this car for ten years now, since new. absulutly the most reliable car ever produced by any car company. Interior design is simple and user friendly. performance is ok but fuel efficiency is superb for the size of its engine. Its an all weather all terrain car that will last forever.
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.
