I was getting some service work done at the dealership this morning when I saw the XV Crosstrek for the first time. I didn't even know Subaru came out with a new car. What does everyone else think about this car? Looks like a compact Outback in a way.
Yeah. I've been thinking this also. I guess the 2.0L is just something we'll all have to get used to the idea of -- but (maybe next year) what's needed is force-air and a better transmission. Why oh why isn't Subaru going the DSG route in stead of that super slushy CVT? HPH
I was going to test drive one last week when I was having my remote start installed (girlfriend is thinking of getting one) but they are flying off the lot faster then they can get them in SLC, UT. They arent discounting them at all.
Last time I visited the big dealer in Allentown PA they said they didn't even have a demo model- no trouble selling their entire allotment without one, so why bother? I like that, because it keeps their overhead a notch lower.
During my search for my Outback only one dealership had one on the lot and it had a big sold sign on it. The salesman said they get sold before it actually arrives at the dealer. I really like the look of them.
