What makes a Subaru a Subaru?

>>17626331
their unique Symmetrical AWD

>>17626331
Combining AWD, speed and handling into one effectively

A shitty engine

retarded boxer engine for no reason

decent awd also used for no reason

>>17626331
antiques roadshow funds

lesbians, vape pens, blown head gaskets

I hate their marketing...

That's not their audience.

>>17626331
One of the few sedans I can actually get in AWD that isn't over 30k

You mean the AWD system that has been destroying its competition since the early 2000's? Not to mention the company's selling point?

For a company that has been repeatedly beating their own sales records every year since 2005, Subaru is doing a pretty good job

>>17626537
How did they lose it? There are virtually no other makers that do AWD in their sedans for the 20-30k range

Yes, but they are also building sportscars and their owners will be just fine if the Porsche is in the shop for 2 weeks and they have to drive the Lexus on the weekend instead.

I was going to say lesbians and fuccbois

Not that they're bad cars. But they should take the airbags out of Imprezas so all of the kids who crash them end up dead and then spin off another company that only does "utility" vehicles.

>>17627048
The boxer engine is a meme. It has no benefits over a modern inline or v engine. Center of gravity doesn't matter if all you make are econoboxes. Awd is a meme for driving on normal or dirt roads. Tires matter much more.

How does it feel to smoke faggots around corners in what looks like a family car?

You know what I always have wondered. Why the fuck does subaru sell for less than normal cars and they come with the best in class awd? How the fuck do they manage. They must charge our the fucking ass for servicing

>>17627152
Their interiors are pretty terrible

>>17627152
When you've been making AWD drivetrains on an autistic scale for 20+ years, you're bound to get good at it.

>>17627145
I'd say the balanced lack of vibrations being a horizontally opposed set up versus a Inline 4 cylinder.

And it seems to hold true in all generations of Subi engines. From my 1.4l boxer to my 2.5l. Can be smooth at 500rpn where an online shakes to hell even with a balancer shaft assembly

How will inline 4 fags ever recover?

>>17627299
Kek, that's fully loaded?

Their interiors remind me of Kia/Hyundai 15 years ago. This isn't even a matter of opinion, it's objective. If you are a true autist and want everything to look like a 1992 Geo, then I guess Subaru is perfect for you. But basicaly anything else in the segment will look like they actually tried to make it look good, even if it were on a budget.

Don't forget grenaded 2nd gear. WRX guys just can't comprehend the TY75xxx transmissions not being able to handle power.

They sell for a good relatively cheap price but they hold their value when it comes to reselling... if they have a turbo

>>17627407
Kek, not really. Just saying that Subaru could act like they care a little more since the person paying many dollhairs for their cars will be spending a lot of time in there.

That was almost all Japanese cars up until recently though. They have tried to catch up in that department ever since Uncle Sam bailed out the US companies and the Big 3 had to start giving a shit about engineering.

What exactly is wrong with that interior? I own one as well (06 Outback turbo) and it's just fine. All I'm getting out of you is a lot of "I don't like it so it's bad" without any substance explaining why you think it's bad.

If you think it's exactly like a 2002 model Kia then you're obviously not spending much time around those like I do as a technician. They're all falling apart and ruined, while every old Subaru I've been in has stood the test of time and neglectful owners.

>Subaru Impreza owner for 10 years

My biggest complaint about the Subaru interior is the lack of lumbar support I had in the seats. Otherwise it was a fine interior. I replaced the stereo so I could get an aux cable and it had everything I needed.

Luckily for you, Subarus are legos. I put 02 WRX seats in my 98 LGT and it's probably the best thing I've done to it. So comfortable. Depending on yours' model year, they should just bolt right in.

Not an STi, but mighty car memes had Gramps (second gen legacy) and then Super Gramps (fourth gen Legacy) which they had put a turbo EZ36 in to make it run an 11.92.

The absurd faggotry owners have when pricing them on the used market. Honda and Toyota wish they could get close to the rice tax you have to pay on these cars. Subarus are probably the only car I would consider buying brand new so I could sell it a few months later for more than i paid for it due to the cult of people willing to blindly overpay for them
