Subaru: Legacy or Forester?

[jm.chan]

I am not so sure on this diesel thing. I mean, engine needs more time to warm up, mas mahina ang hatak, more vibrations, etc. If my budget is limited siguro then maybe OK. But for a luxury brand like subaru I just don't see the wisdom of diesel.

Even mercedes diesel, from what I've heard, is mabagal.

Not to argue but to solicit opinions and views.

hmmmmm how about the audi a4 3.0 TDI Quattro?? hmmmmm... also diesel cars tend to be more expensive than gas enginged cars

If you can afford it (as well as the gas), get the XT since even with bolt-on mods, hindi pa din mahahabol ng X ang XT. Pero I feel acceptable na ang X kung may bolt-on mods and thus may be the more value-for-money choice. AFAIK, the engine is only very slightly different from the 07-08 model so there should be bolt-ons available from orange, speedlab, etc. Kung wala man, hindi din magtatagal yun for sure.

My FXT consumes 7.5 km/lit Mixed hiway & city. I think pure city figures are about 6.5-7 km/lit with the X probably closer to 7.
