The Anti-SUV

Date of Review:  Dec 7, 2001
The Bottom Line: For thousands less than an Audi or Passat wagon with AWD, Subaru delivers an impressive package.
Review: I've owned my 01 Outback wagon for a year now and have put about 20,000 miles on it and have been very impressed with this car's capabilities. Specifically, I love having the added security of AWD to get me through any type of weather -- this car...

Brake Problems and other Defects

Date of Review:  Mar 13, 2008
Review: I agree with the previous review...the 2001 Subaru Outback has defective brakes. We've had to had the brake rotors reskinned every single year from 2001 to 2007. The car vibrates when the brakes are applied and squeals when put in reverse. We've had...

I love my Subaru

Date of Review:  Jul 9, 2001
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this car to anyone who is looking for a small car.. All wheel drive is great.
Review: We have always purchase Ford vehicles until now... We did our research and this car has a great dependability rating and a decent price. I have heard nothing but good about the Subaru cars from friends and family.
I now have a small child that...

value and safety!

Date of Review:  Dec 26, 2000
Review: Subarus. Seems like they are everywhere in the mountains these days. This means you have agile platforms (with equally impressive suspension and brake systems) designed to help the driver AVOID the accident. These attributes are remarkable in good...

2001 Subaru Outback (20 year Subaru owner!)

Date of Review:  Nov 20, 2003
The Bottom Line: reliable, economical, safe, comfortable, funny-looking, terrible local dealer
Review: The first Subaru I owned was a 1980 GL wagon. I've been snowboarding and skiing for over 20 years, and I wanted a vehicle with good performance in the snow. In these past two decades I've been overwhelmingly pleased with the reliability and...

NEVER BUYING A SUBARU AGAIN!

Date of Review:  Nov 2, 2006
The Bottom Line: Don't buy a Subaru. The company does not stand by its products.
Review: We are extremely unhappy with our Subaru, which has only 48,000 miles on it. The thing I hate the most is that air blows out of the front vents at all times, even when the fan is set at 0. After I have been driving for a while, the air gets hot and...

A solid combination of economy and utility

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: Subaru has put together a great wagon that will hold up to the worst winter weather!
Review: Who can doubt that Subaru arguably has the best all-wheel drive system in the business? They've been making them for years and visit any mountain town in New England or Colorado and see what the locals drive! In these harsh extreme climates, what is...

2001 Subaru Outback

Date of Review:  Nov 19, 2000
The Bottom Line: This is a good car to consider if you want the safety of 4 wheel drive, but don't want a large SUV.
Review: We recently purchased a 2001 Subaru Outback. We plan to use this as our primary car (the older car is a "station car"). Besides everyday use, we take driving trips to Vermont for skiing and a summer vacation to the beaches of Cape Cod. The four...

LL Bean Edition: Beauty and the Beast

Date of Review:  Feb 12, 2001
The Bottom Line: Buy for the mechanicals, not the design.
Review: I recently purchased my first Subaru - the LL Bean Edition. Previously I would not even consider a class of cars so notoriously underpowered.

I was amazed at the mechanical systems of this car. It is the smoothest riding, yet best handling...

Know Your Product!

Date of Review:  Nov 16, 2000
Review: I recently changed jobs and became a sales and leasing consultant for a local car dealership. The first thing that was stressed to me by my new employer was to know the product. Your customers will, so you had better!
I immediately went to work...
