    Experienced it a couple of times. I suppose the rather worn tires had a hand with it as well, and probably the road surface. Once was actually while slowly turning.

    The Impreza with the 2.0L non turbo engine is like a wet rag. For the same budget, it would be better spent on a executive sedan or SUV/CUV.

    Example the Subaru XV or Subaru Forester.

    The Santa Fe does chirp tires every now and then (if you have the front-wheel drive)... especially if you're turning and there's less weight on the inside tire. Makes sudden overtakes... interesting.

    The Sorento does it more often. I think it's the stiffer suspension. Overtaking with the Sorento makes you look like a douchebag... Squeeeeeeeee... even if you aren't at full throttle.

    -

    Agree with GH. If you're getting a non-turbo Subaru, the XV is the best of the lot. Better interior and better to drive (strangely) than the Impreza. Rides better than the current Forester (sorry... they made it a bit too stiff). Lots of space. Only downside is the small trunk.

    The Mazda 6 is actually bigger than the Camry now and even the 3-er.

    Camry: 4,825 x 1,825 x 1,470 with a wheelbase of 2,775
    SkyActiv Mazda 6: 4,865 x 1,840 x 1,450 with a wheelbase of 2,830
    Old Mazda 6: 4,755 x 1,795 x 1,440 with a wheelbase of 2,725
    BMW 3-Series: 4,624 x 1,811 x 1,429 with a wheelbase of 2,810

    Both are big inside. But the Camry has more effective cabin packaging than the Mazda6. Evven with a shorter wheelbase, there's more legroom in the Camry. But the difference is no longer huge. About three to four inches of extra knee room in the Camry.

    By the way, when I back read on this thread, somebody mentioned that since the Mazda 6 is GDI, it'll require 100RON. Contrary to this, the Mazda 6 only requires 91RON.

    Would it require cleaner Euro 4 gasoline?

    So far the Skyactiv-Gs are perfectly happy with the usual crap we get from our pumps. No doom and gloom from the SAs saying otherwise.

    The Skyactiv-D however needs Euro4 diesel.

    This may be contradicting, but why not go for the safer choice when you'll just go for it? SANTA FE na

    You can never really enjoy driving a low car on a daily basis here in the metro. Ok lang siguro if the purpose of this purchase is ocassional use lang. Go for the executive sedans without a whim.

    I don't believe so. Depende na yan sa tao and in my case, I'm not a fan of big and bulky cars as a personal car. I'll pick a 3-series over a X3, or a 5-series over a X5. Impractical for daily driving? Well, depends on where you are. It's not like we experience flooding everyday ;)

    There are occasional quibbles of course. Like how I can't simply plow through our village humps.. or how I'm 40% slower in EDSA thanks to 20s on a thinner profile tire. But once I get on the highway............. :naughty2:

    Yep 91RON unleaded is fine for our local SkyActiv engines (2.0 and 2.5), no need for Euro 4. The engines we get here have 13:1 compression ratio compared to EU SkyActiv engines which have 14:1 compression ratio.
