I went up to Boise, ID for an NCAA women's soccer match this weekend. Inside the airport was, I believe, an Outback station wagon, from Boise Subaru. Subaru is making some good stuff these days! My mother owned a '91 Legacy, and everybody in Vermont (near my old college) seems to have old ones (or Saabs). I look tonight on the Subaru website to try to confirm what I saw, and I have a loss of attention span and wind up on the product page for the BRZ, which I have never heard of. That's a sharp looking car. Has it been around a while? It's not exotic, but it looks nice for what it is. http://www.subaru.com/vehicles/brz/index.html
Subaru's in general are good cars. They are reliable, and dependable. You can't go wrong with this brand.
