2004 Subaru Impreza 2.5 TS review from North America
"Nice driving experience, but expensive and expected longivity very poor"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Paint is chipping and rust is already appearing on doorsteps.
Rear brakes lasted 20 000 km although we drive mainly on highways. (My other car rear brakes lasted 90 000 km.)
Fuel consumption is very high for such a small car.
General comments?
Fun to drive and a charm in winter storms.
