"Fun to drive, easy to own"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

No problems as of yet.

Occasionally smell what appears to be Antifreeze, but no leaks, etc. Must be some coating used in shipping.

General comments?

Car is fun to drive, has decent interior space, and does well in bad weather.

Wish gas mileage was a bit better. At under 5000 miles, just took trip and averaged 27.5 with speeds ranging from 70-80 mph. $-wheel drive exerts gas mileage penalty, and does not seem to coast as easily as my previous Buick Roadmaster wagon.

City mileage commute is averaging 20mpg with AC on. My old buick roadmaster with a 5.7 v8 used to get 18-19mpg in city and 25-27mpg on highway for a much bigger car.

Overall, is a fun car to drive and is easy to park.

Now many Subaru sold in China. you can go www.xcar.com.cn to find a Subaru forum and there are lots of comments on Subaru car.

I plan to have an outback H6 some time next year (2006). I like the car and have tested once around 5th ring road of Beijing and rate in 140 just looked as 100!
