I bought a 17 Outback new. Currently at about 45K miles. It has been an excellent car and given me no problems whatsoever. If I needed another car for some reason, I would not hesitate to start that search at the local Subaru dealer.
My first was after a trip to CarMax... test drove the Subaru and was on the way home to get the title for my old car...and stopped at the Subaru dealer on the way. Found the same car, same options and 2 years newer for lower price and payment.
