Why Subaru?

[foresterx]

My x5 drives better

really, you compare an x5 to a forester?

im curious with the Mazda so i requested to drive my brother in law's 2014 CX-5 skyactiv all the way to Tagaytay Highlands and back, went home at night na going down to Nuvali with minimal traffic... ride is smooth and soft better than the Rav4... but it is way behind the Subaru's on twisty corners, push the pedal for power on straight line accelaration.. still incomparable with the XT, the Subaru is more of a pocket rocket, the Mazda is just a normal SUV with adequate power and cushy ride..was bored actually.. enough said. ( my brother in law was driving my XT.. and he wont give me my keys back )

The XT is indeed a powerhouse in comparison, but the CX5 has better wheel control over bumpy roads, better rebound control and feels less tippy when you're pushing hard, despite having modest body roll.

The XT feels a bit unwieldy and not very stable, despite the stiffer set-up. It's a crapload better than the CR-V or RAV4, mind and it has lots of grip, but it's not as involving when you're playing fast and loose.

To make a long story short... you can tease the CX-5 into oversteer with a Scandinavian flick if you really try. The XT never really tempts you to go that far.

But the CX5 is nowhere near as fulfilling in terms of raw speed, admittedly.

Question, do kids with their rice rockets make eye contact? On the stoplight even theres a traffic jam...

Owned both STi and FXT, Handling is the answer to this thread.. period.. ( beg to disagree with previous poster re Mazda 3, CX5, Escape and focus...) cant compare oranges and apples... due to low center of gravity of boxer engine - makes you feel more confident on corners and quick turns.

Anyone knows subaru agent/dealer na hindi sugapa or transparent sa transactions. :-)

You might want to try my agent at Subaru BGC. His name is Marvin.

Suspension or brake parts for example will be priced differently from manufacturer to manufacturer.

Good pm ask ko lang po kung worth buying pa "well maintained" subaru legacy wagon 1996? At 179,000 km. Thanks! Price is 125,000 PHP

[juliancohen]

The reason I bought a Subaru was quite simply, they had good performance for the money. Although I later found out that turbocharged power was not quite the same as engine displacement power

Is the CX5 AWD as good as the XV AWD, to your opinion?

The CX5 is more spacious and luxurious inside when compared to an XV.

But personally, I’d still get a Subaru. Been a loyal customer for almost a decade.

The CX5 is a better platform than the XV but in terms of AWD capability, Subaru has an edge over Mazda.

They say only two AWD systems are on top in terms of capability. It's Subaru's Symmetrical AWD and Audi's Quattro.

Both the 86 and BRZ share the same platform, engine, and tranny. The only difference is the tuning of the suspension. BRZ's are tuned with a stiffer suspension, better for track use.

Reliability is the same as they are practically the same vehicle with the exception of the badge. Parts are the same for both. If you prefer the T badge, then go for it. If you ask me, I'd go with the BRZ as Subaru will not up-sell you with the useless TRD badges.

Thanks for the input. this will be my daily car if ever. is ground clearance about 4.9 inches? talk to my toyota SA and by order ang 86, 3-5 months daw. My subaru SA readily available sya.
