I have a 95 subaru Impreza LX Coupe. I have to admit that this is by
far the best car I have ever owned. My only gripe is that it has a
nasty habit of people trying to break into it. 5 times in 4
years.You'd think I bought a Ferrari with the frequency of the break-
ins. I bought the car out of the showroom in 95, and to this day, I
still have not replaced any of the tailight bulbs. I bought some
silverstar bulbs for the headlights when the drivers side one blew at
the inspection station. I highly recommend these, because they
brighten up the road a bit. I replaced the timing belt for the first
time at 119k miles, and when I took it off, it looked just like the
factory replacement I bought. Not even a crack. I have the 2.2L
engine, and it still purrs like new, even though I have put 130k miles
on it Not bad for almost 13 years. The automatic still shifts
smoothly and with jack-rabbit starts, it still a lot of get-up-and-
go. In the snow, I can do better than most trucks uphill. I have
heard some bad tales of the more recent models, but I love my suby and
wouldn't even think of getting rid of it. I started to think after a
few years that I would just drive it 'till it runs into the ground,
but I'm starting to think that they will outlaw gasoline engines
before this will happen.
