    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

    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.
    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.

    Subaru did its homework in actually making the Eyesight technology work

    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.

Why Subaru?
