    I don't think there are sources of Subaru parts outside of the dealers for now. The shops that cater to Subarus are for upgrades and modifications, they don't really sell common parts.

    This is also a thing with Mitsubishi and other car brands that do not have test drive vehicles. The dealers are asked to pay / buy the test drive vehicles if they want one.

    Malaking hassle sa utak, puso at oras ang maging target ng mga asbu(waya)....

    However, MS provides bigger cabin space, [more passenger option, more loading flexibility] and higher drive/ride height....

    I have the exact same dilemma. Cars in my initial shortlist were XV, Montero, Sorento, and Ranger. Then I did some research and ended up with XV and Montero. My brain tells me to get the Montero because of its size, fc, maintenance cost. My heart tells me to get the XV because its uncommon looks and better driving experience.

    Made my decision today and booked a desert khaki XV.

    I will test drive the montero this weekend and see if it will win my heart.
    Thanks for the feedback!

    i have the same dilemma but mine is between monty glx at and forester. i havent decided fully but my heart is with forester. i just hope the cvt will prove its reliablity as it was built to last according to subaru.
