Sube diesel
Just as a note, Subaru is going to do a boxer diesel which will be available in Europe next year. And it's one of the new "common rail" high pressure injection diesels, which don't have the clatter or stink of the diesels (M-B, VW, etc.,) that you're familiar with. But it does have the TORQUE. Diesels have way better torque output than gas engines of the same displacement, plus getting 30% to 50% better fuel mileage. Not too long ago, I drove a Euro-spec BMW 320d, and was wowed. Quiet, smooth, and a boot in the back when accelerating. Hated to give it back. So look for the Sube diesel to be a desirable item, even if, like all the new Subes, it is ugly.
