Go for Subaru Outback 2.5

I have never heard the Nissan Skyline being called a good looking car. The interior plastics are cheap and the rear seating isn't the most comfortable.

Personally I would go for the non-turbo Subaru, on the basis of comfort, stability and reliability that equals the Toyota.

Im such a girl then coz I find it soooo pretty. Look at her



I appreciate your feedback, I was torn between Skyline or Sub and hubby is torn between Mark X or Sub.

Go for the Subbie. Very reliable and never disappoints especially if you get the non-turbo version.It will take you places you've never been to before and lasts and lasts if you take good care of it. The Outback is however a better buy as said.

She want "looks" too.... you want her to choose quality. I have had this conversation with my bae before, i had a sub, it had served me well still new infact it had 58k millage. i rarely used it as i worked out of the country for months. She just wanted a mark x .."Looks mattered too". I sold my sub and let her get what her heart wanted.
Sub is a quality car...and many guys will always opt for it nowonder the advice.
Personally i would tell you. "Choose what makes you happy!!" You dont have to be in a sub and still envy a skyline or mark x flying past you. So long as you maintain it well na ushago si juu ya mlima ya red soil. if it makes you happy go for it, its better than being stuck in your a sub you dont like.
I doubt a sub will make you happy based on the chats above.

To date i thank God i left her to make her choice and buy what made her happy "a mark x" unlike if i would have forced her to get my sub. She loves her mark x, maintains it like a doll, and she has never had issues.
The next day i put that sub online, the first buyer snapped it on cash immediately...

How is the consumption, km/l?

I have been eyeing Subarus but I have no information on consumption. Would it be advisable I start with a 1500cc Subaru and move up?

Ridiculous statement

You should factor your requirements when talking about fuel economy. If you're looking for a town car go for the 1.5, if you do mostly highway driving go for the added performance in the 2.0.

It's true a 1500cc consumes as much as a forester

Lyk seriously, a Subaru does the Kinungi hill better than a prado? I owned a subaru and the only hill i used to go was the Kinungi & salgaa. I always pressed the power button on those hills but i would see Prados flying past me. I think Subarus at times are over-estimated... They are good on hills but i doubt they can beat a prado.
