2002 Subaru Outback review from North America
"All in all a nice car to have"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The seal around the mirror on the driver side door is leaking and produces wind noise.
Is being replaced under the warranty.
General comments?
The car is a great confidence builder for the winter driver.
Easy to handle and control.
The 4 cylinder little sluggish to respond.
The bucket seats could be designed more comfortable and are hard to endure on a long ride.
The paint is thin and chips easy.
The assessories are great to have.
I am confident that I am riding in a car that is built well.
