2006 Subaru Outback review from North America
"Would buy again, no question"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No manufacturer issues to speak of.
Broken windshield from kicked up stone.
Original equipment tires (Bridgestone Potenza RE95a's) VERY expensive to replace (hole in sidewall of one at 14000m)
General comments?
For a raised suspension vehicle, it corners like a dream.
EXCELLENT fuel mileage.
First rate cabin design.
2.5 normally aspirated engine is effective, but could use a bump in power.
