Owned 3 Subarus. We purchased a 2002 Impreza WRX and a 2003 forester at the same time when living up north. Best car for snow and ice. I drive my Subaru in snow (as long as it wasn’t too deep) when others were getting stuck. Best all wheel drive system on ANY car or truck. Wife sold the 2003 back in 2011, however I kept my WRX until 2 weeks ago when I traded it for a new 2024 WRX. I had 154,000 miles and I went 150,000 on original clutch and turbo. Take car if your vehicle and it will take care of you. No major issues, just wear items like tires, brakes, fluids. Have no fear what other shade tree mechanics say, the boxer engine is a great engine. All wheel drive system is bullet proof, I say Subarus are on same level as Toyota, Honda. Oh, All Wheel Drive is needed in rain. I never have had any traction issues in rain.
