Used 2010 Subaru Outback Consumer Reviews
WOW!!!
Traded in the wife's 98 Outback wagon for the new 2010. What a difference!! Looked at other brands for a replacement but she came back to the fold. I'm glad she did as the price was right, It's roomier and the transmission and engine has made great strides in the past 11 years, No wonder people keep coming back to the brand. Comfortable and a lot of looks and praises. Subaru for life!!!! I'm thinking of the sedan, which is a very nice vehicle also, for myself.
A solid build car
I have this car for a month. I am enjoying driving it. My impression on it are: ride is firm, mileage is barely over 20 mpg, which is below official claimed mileage, engine noise is loud.

Under Rated - Great Car
Have 1000 miles driven and I'm loving this car. CVT is very smooth and the 2.5i performs surprisingly well. Handles real well and has a solid and smooth highway feel. Did a 350 mile trip recently and had no road fatigue. Ergonomics for the driver are well designed and the more familiar I get the happier I become with how they laid things out. Fit, finish and workmanship appear outstanding. The manual mode is a dream when driving mountain roads and the paddle shifters are wonderful. First Subaru for me- fell in love with a 2009 loaner and when I went to buy one I found the newly designed 2010 - with a bigger interior (the one drawback I felt the Outback had) So, it was an easy sell.
best all around family car
First time Subaru owners and we're liking it so far. We have nearly 6000 miles on the car in just 2 months. We are very pleased with the comfort level while traveling on long trips. It has been in a foot of snow in the Cascade Mountains and on the beach at Pismo. We have driven in major rain, crossed creeks, traveled muddy roads and busy cities streets. It is the most stable car I've ever driven and that includes the 4X4 trucks I've owned. We are getting 27-30 mpg on the highway and about 24 around town. The performance level is surprising for a four cylinder motor. The CVT Transmission is the whole reason the engines feels more powerful than it actually is. Highly recommend this SUV.
I like it!
The stereo could have better features but other than that I love this car. I've had it for 6 months now and it handles well, it's quiet & quite comfortable on long rides. The local Subaru (Capital Subaru) service department is top notch!
