    I love this model car, so much! I hope to get it one day. Thank you so much for posting this video and giving me a better idea of what it has to offer.

    A physical key is good. Not a fan of the all electronic push button start. The Touch Screen is a option that I would loose. I thought the Base Model was the only model that did not have a Touch Screen. It looks like I was wrong. Subaru if you are listening. Get rid of the Touch Screen Interface. Give me Physical Buttons. I do not want a Screen or Touch Screen in my Car. Give me simple reliable controls that do not change. Thank you.

    I have a Lithium Red Wilderness. Skip the base and go for Sport and up. The 2.5L makes a big difference.

    Do you notice the Subaru camera in your line of sight? The car might be slow compared to todays faster cars, but really, compared to what we drove in the 70's and 80's with four bangers, it is a rocket-ship! 😎

  • @noahg5011
    @noahg5011 5 месяцев назад +2

    Yay you did it! I have a brand new premium in this color and love it. The smaller engine isn’t a huge deal for me.

  • @lorenschwiderski
    @lorenschwiderski 3 месяца назад +2

    No roof rails is a plus. The 0-60 in this decade is a bit slow, but then again in this class of cars, most are not out to race anyway. I expect prices to drop now that lots are filled, and many people are no longer buying. On low end cars, a couple thousand off, and on higher end cars, $3K to $5K off pricing should be expected, if not now, in the near future. If the US drops into a recession or worse, the bargains might be even better.

    There is ONE '24 Convenience of this beautiful color, in the GTA.
    I test drove a similar model in the touring (same 2.0), tonight.
    Im debating. $35 k all in Canadian.
    I am trying the CX 5 tomorrow so will make the call then. Thanks for the great video!

    For a similar amount, you could literally get base CX-5, which would be much more premium and better in every way.

    @703Speed - If you had a choice of the Subaru Crosstrek, the Mazda CX-30, and the Toyota Carolla Cross - Which would you choose? I am looking to buy on Saturday - my b-day. (Assuming they are all like trim levels).

  • @cjhunter2385
    @cjhunter2385 3 месяца назад

    I got a the premium last week since it was only $1k up from the base. So far I like it. I’m a little disappointed that the 2024 premium is lackluster compared to 2022 premium. Now you have to pay an extra $2.5k for things like moonroof, blind spot monitor and heated seats which came automatically in the 2022. Overall a nice car though. I think the base isn’t a bad deal though.

  • @brianknight3750

    Great review. Thanks. I think I am going to get this model it has everything I want. Good clearance 4wd automatic air-conditioning cruise control and a back up camera as well as a lot of things that are really nice like dual climate an actual spare tire auto brake hold which would be really nice in stop and go traffic since I travel to a big city 2x a month and am in small town and country back roads a lot this should keep me safely able to travel in all kinds of weather.

      @703Speed  5 месяцев назад +2

      Hmm.. Honestly they're right on par with each other feature wise. Really comes down to which one you like driving more. Idk, I think I kinda like the look of the Crosstrek better, but the transmission in the Mazda better

    • @703Speed
      @703Speed  3 месяца назад +1

      Keyless entry is the buttons on the key fob itself. Keyless access is when you’re able to walk up to the car and not have to take your key fob out of your pocket and press the button. This does not have keyless access

    • @tah6746
      @tah6746 3 месяца назад

      @@DaMeng3000 Maybe. However, I have found that High Beams are not needed that often. This is dependent on how the Automatic High Beam sensors / system works. For example, does this system detect viable light only, infrared, a combination of these from on coming traffic? The sensor location I would think would make a difference in the successful operation of this system. What is the Threshold of input needed to make the Automatic High Beams Turn Off? Will the system react differently to lights mounted high on a vehicle or low? A Car or Lifted Truck / SUV for example. In theory this could work. In the real world not too confident.
