I was amazed at how small the back seat is in this car. Really no bigger than a compact sedan, eg Civic or Corolla. I can't fit my 3 kids (in car seats) back there, and feel bad when co-workers pile in to go to lunch. Surprisingly small for a vehicle this size, and marketed as a "family car." If you plan to put adults or 3 kids back there regularly, look at the '10 or newer (or at something else -- the rear seat in my co-worker's Accord is far bigger and more comfortable). see full Subaru Outback review |

Too short! I am 6ft tall and the front passenger seat leaves me feeling very cramped. Drivers position is better. Seats also too narrow. Maybe plenty of room for skinny folks, but not for us folks that are large boned :-) see full Subaru Outback review |

I live on a mountain and need four wheel drive. Never a problem with traction. see full Subaru Outback review |
2008 | 4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
I need a vehicle that can take me up snowy mountain roads to my favorite ski areas on a daily basis. My Subaru not only takes me up the mountain safely, but also downhill with AWD and a 5 spd MT. I find it has power to spare with the 4 cyl engine. see full Subaru Outback review |
2007 | 4dr Wagon 175-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
All wheel drive and ground clearance are nice to have for bad weather or trying to get to a remote location. You wouldn't confuse it for a sports car, but it gets up and down the canyon very nicely, too. see full Subaru Outback review |
2007 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 243hp 2.5L H4 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The O7 XT is equiped with a turbo charger,the engine response is smooth. The engine has more than enough power for the size of the car. Compared to an Audi A4 or an Audi Allroad the power is greater than or equal to those cars. see full Subaru Outback review |
