I purchased the vehicle with around 80k miles. We have put another 40k miles on it. The car had a leaking head gasket due to the poor design of the engine. 1500 in repairs later... the transmission now is shifting hard and I'm sure it will break soon. Not impressed with the quality of the vehicle. I miss my Scion tic, which was reliable, powerful, and fun. This car also has a leaking Sun roof due to the pan. I had to caulk the roof to prevent the leak. Do yourself a favor and buy something else.

Subaru is my favorite brand. (And the Subaru dealer, Carter Subaru Ballard, is my favorite dealership!) Full-time all wheel drive is something you quickly learn to appreciate when driving in Pacific Northwest's winters. The car sticks to the road, and more than once I avoided some close calls thanks to this feature. The low center of gravity Boxer engine also helps to stay on the road when making tight turns. The Hill Start Assist is another extremely useful feature in our terrain. The navigation system is intuitive and fun and overall driving this car is just a great experience.
