^ the baja is terrible... like... useless, the bed it tiny, the interior is tiny.. the engine is tiny, its just a poor vehicle all around.
i worked at surbaru for a few years and the outback has grown on me the most.
Subaru re sale value is amazing, reliability is great IF you maintain the vehicle and most are very upgradable thanks to the aftermarket availablity for most Subaru's, and alot of models share parts amongst themselves making swaps and whatnot more simple.
on the down side tho, maintenance can be pricey ei. blow a tire and you needa buy all 4 new ones because uneven tread wear can cause pre mature differential wear, and fuel economy isnt the best in its class

Bingo!
It is indeed one of the most favoured cheapest AWD car, but keep in mind, AWD = more fuel = money pit.
But handling is awesome in the rain or dry. Slap on on some winter tires in the snow, and you'll be drifting like Takumi
And yes, it does have the famous horizontal opposed 'boxer' engine, but one issue that always arises with the engines particular to the naturally aspirated, are leaky head gaskets.
So .... who wants to buy my car? (don't worry, no leaky gaskets here

I had a bugeye wrx. Good car but not practical. Not roomy and the thing was a pig on gas. Aftermarket parts are way too uber rare and overpriced Posted via RS Mobile

i dont care if you think its useless, i think its cool as fuck
Subaru fills a special niche kinda like saab. Saved me once when I jumped a curb at 50km/h while drifting between 2 trees. The car just drove like nothing happened
Dat AWD is solid, went through a foot of snow and ice with shitty all seasons

Turbo BMW with Xdrive should work as good as STi !
LOL @ BMW awd system, it works on the road and that about it, Subaru's symmetrical system is a nice setup, whats the point of AWD if hp/torque isnt spread evenly
simple video showing the difference, top gear covered a BMW with Xdrive and it was much the same, uneven power distribution fails pretty bad in snow/mud situations

i rewatched the video and would argue that the rav4 should have made it up the hill.
unlike the other vehicles the rav4 has the ability to lock the center differential manually which should distribute the power 50-50 limiting slippage and arguably getting it up that hill.
LOLWTF xDrive is good for road only or a few inches of snow... 40/60 distribution = disaster in mud
CVT forester is not actually 50/50 but 45/55
