The appearance of the vehicle is very pleasing to the eye. I now have over 24,000 miles on the vehicle and have experienced no rattles or unusual noises inside or outside of the car. The car gets excellent gas mileage both city and highway. It consumes regular gasoline, which with gas prices at an all time low, is very economical. AWD is standard which is a plus in inclement weather. Controls are easily accessible to the driver. Is rated one of the top in safety/crash ratings. Interior is comfortable. Back seats fold down to allow for extra or larger cargo.

The Impreza is a compact all-wheel drive car. It is perfect for someone who doesn't need a big car but needs to make it to work in any kind of weather. The sport version really adds to this car which can look pretty plain in the base version.
