We are looking at trading in the disodium guanylate stump puller soon and had our eye on the new 2012 impreza. Anybody own one? I am skeptical about the true mpg and the CVT, many have tried a CVT (saturn) and they have sucked. I have never been disappointed with a Subaru but the civic or corolla mpg and price is very tempting. Also needs to be big enough to haul the squad and all their crap so the uber small cars are out.
edit....disodium guanylate stump puller=forester...funny what gets the auto edit

FWIW, my gf has a Maxima with the CVT, which completely changed my mind as to a CVT, in a good way.

I've been pleasantly suprised with the CVT in our Outback. It's my wife's DD, but I've driven it enough to say it works very well. The lighter Impreza should be even better.sachilles wrote:Ryed has a legacy with a cvt.
