Basically between a Honda Hrv and Subaru 2012-2013 Impreza base model (sedan or hatch idc). I like the Subaru because its a compact car with awd nd is excellent on gas. I like the hrv because of its elevated driving posture...IDK about Subaru's. I'm leaning towards the impresa..what does /o/ think.
If you like the ride height of the HR-V, get a Subaru XV Crosstrek.
It's literally the Impreza Outback Sport of the new age with a new name for some retarded reason.
HRV doesn't come AWD standard, and its AWD system is FWD-based dogshit.
The Subaru will hold its value retardedly well while the Honda will lose most of its value in just 2 years.
Don't be a cuck. Get the Subaru.

Its a bit more expensive than I can afford atm. It snows where I am but is always plowed ad salted within the first snow flake falling so I don't think I need the height. I'm so excited dude. I finally get to own a car. Anways its looking like itsgunna be the Subaru cuz awd sedan

I'm sad they got away from this classic wagon styling in favor of some new-age crossover/hatch garbage, but oh well.

I was thinking about trading in my Honda Fit for a base model Impreza from the past 5 years. It is almost a perfect car, but I think I will wait until my Fit dies.

what year is this
>>16223954
I can only recommend that car if;
>you get the 2.0
>you get the manual
>you are aware that the suspension is very stiff
Still, even with the anemic 1.6 and the horrible CVT its a much more capable car than ones like my fathers Outlander and uncles XC60 - perhaps the most able crossover in its class

2012-2016
>>16225123
I'm looking at 2012s. I love the look of the base model. How lame
>>16223942
get a civic for 3k. awd is a meme. just get snow tires. new econoboxes are shit.
>>16225782
Leave here now.
>>16225838
how am i wrong.
>>16225907
Because I don't want a pos shit Honda. You do realize what a 3k car looks like right?
>>16227962
you can get a perfectly fine looking civic for 3k. all one color, few scratches, and a clean interior.
>>16225038
They sell those with a 1.6 over there? They're 2.0 only in the states and everyone still shits on it for its horsepower rating.
>>16227969
False. ANY 3k car will have upwards of 150,000 miles. Have considerable wear and tear and be upwards of 10 years old.
>>16227981
I've got about 3.5k into my soob and it's just fine. It ticks all of those boxes except considerable wear and tear. I only paid $1800 for it initially.
>>16227993
Unfortunately I live in a city soo all the cars so beat to shit from the salt they literally throw around. I have a see a couple cleannnnnnnnnn loyales around here though....
>>16227981
I never said anything about miles. Yes it will have that many miles but that's not a bad thing as long as it looks decent inside and out. Avoiding a couple mechanical issues isn't worth spending 20k.
>>16228535
You obviously don't know how reality works.
>>16228571
Why don't I? I found a good cheap civic. You could too if you weren't so obsessed with your image and shitty awd.
>>16228571
What you're saying is
>I don't buy older cars because I'm too stupid to fix things when they go wrong
Pick up a fucking wrench and be a man.
>>16228681
>pick up a wrench and be a man.
Yeah proved my point. You have no idea what you are talking about.
>>16228719
That wasn't me. I'm not saying you have to learn to wrench. Just don't be afraid of small repairs. It's never stranded me and most expensive repair was a $800 a/c compressor. Mechanics aren't out to get you.
