1994 Subaru Impreza GL review from Israel
"Not good enough for its price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A/C makes a banging sound every once in a while when turned on.
Power steering makes ringing sounds when it is cold.
Wind coming in from the front doors' side-mirrors areas at about 100 km/h+.
General comments?
A very weak car for i's engine, all Japanese 1.6 liter cars are faster, it does 0-100 in twenty years and has a top speed of only 160 km/h!
On the other hand, it's mechanically reliable, smart in overall design, drives very comfortably and the engine will never drown.
If you buy a Subaru, make it a 1.8 liter at least! This one's too weak.
