2013 Subaru Legacy - Best car I've owned.
I absolutely love my 2013 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Limited vehicle. It's quiet, comfortable, reliable, and fully loaded. Fuel consumption is as expected, on average I get 27 mpg. Also, the interior is spacious. My tall friends (6+ foot) never complain about sitting in the back seat.

Once I underestimated the amount of things I purchased at Ikea. After some creative packing, I was able to fit everything into my car with all the windows up and the truck fully latched. It may have taken me 30 minutes to do it, but it all fit since the interior is so roomy and the seats fold down nearly flat.

My favorite feature on this vehicle is the remote start. The range on the FOB is phenomenal. I use it every morning in the winter so I can slip into a warm car and quickly be off to work.

The worse part of this car is the process to change the low beam headlights. It's completely ridiculous and would be impossible to do quickly. Nearly the entire front end and wheel well liner needs to be removed just to make enough space that you can reach your hand up through the wheel well, under a load-bearing beam, and blindly unscrew the water tight cap, change the bulb, and replace everything. Subaru did a horrible job with this design. There is no way to quickly change the main beam headlights in case of an emergency and especially not without the correct tools.

Another thing I really dislike is the lack of ability to reprogram the GPS when the car is moving. I feel that this is a safety issue, if a driver ends up in a bad part of town in a city they're visiting, the last thing they'll want to do is pull over, make a complete stop, and figure out how to get out of there. I think Subaru should allow the GPS to be changed if it detects a passenger and the passenger airbag is on. There's no reason why the entire car should be locked out of the GPS when there are other people who can change it while the driver is driving.
