Starter motor replaced at 105,000 and 118,000 miles.

Brakes replaced at 60,000 and 120,000 miles.

Some of the trim inside the car has started to crack.

The car has had an oil leak since 80,000 miles dealer said it would be $1700 (US) to fix so I've been adding about a quart of oil every month or so.

General Comments:

This car has been very reliable and is still running great now.

Excellent gas mileage (23 MPG) for a car this age.

Four wheel drive works great in the snow.

With the exception of the rust on the finish and the interior trim the finish of this car looks the same as it did when it was new.

My only complaint is terrible acceleration takes almost 20 sec to get to 60 mph when getting on the highway and if the A/C is on its even worse.

This car has been great I'd like to replace it with a new Impreza WRX soon, but we'll see, have had 3 Subarus and they have all been excellent cars.

Faults:

I needed to replace a passenger side axel.

Transmission has a slight, correctable fluid leak.

Oil pressure indicator doesn't work.

Power locks stopped working.

Passenger side ball joint was replaced.

General Comments:

This car responds well to all road conditions.

Having four wheel drive has been a plus during snow.

Very strong to drive, I have driven it to New Orleans, Chicago and Rhode Island all from Philadelphia, PA.

Having a wagon was great for gear, such as mountain bikes and ski equipment.

This cars gets very good gas mileage when tuned up, and serviced.

Handles nice at higher speeds.

Faults:

Exhaust system fell off.

Radiator blown.

Fan broken.

Marker lights broken.

Windshield cracked, frame rusted.

No rear seat belts except the center.

One front driver's side brake (no other brakes).

Suspension shot.

Check engine light is always on.

General Comments:

If you need a good offroad vehicle, nothing beats a Subaru Wagon. Me and my friends have put it through a lot and it's still running fine, except for all the stuff I already mentioned. It can even knock over a tree.
