Thumbs down

I have never driven one of the other cars, so i can just have my doubts about how they perfermed, but i have checked C&D few times now - they didn't look to be any near neutral in their points.. at least the issues that i saw.. My opinion is that the money talk, clearly.. not Subaru's though

It's called levelling the playing field.
If they based the lowest trim levels against the TR....it just wouldn't be fair.

magazine is a very biased kiss *** rag. I honestly don't even bother anymore. I'll read it at the dr's office when I'm desperate...that's it.

Agreed.

I only read C&D whenever my mom brings an issue back from work.

The only car mag I read now is Motor Trend.
