I almost bought one of these Subaru's used in 1995 but I went with a Hyundai Excel. The Excel got me across the country a few times and its final straw was the fuel filter and the bolt that holds the shift knob in place. But I drove that car across the country multiple times and it was reliable until the end.

The fuel filter was halfway down the engine block next to the firewall, I just couldn't do it myself and I had the funds for a new car so I said goodbye to that old workhorse. I always wondered if the Subaru would have done better...
