By the way, how's the cost on maintaining this car?

Add to that list the radiator and crank pulley in the 100,000-120,000 mile range; subtract brake rotors unless you enjoy trying to make them glow. My SVX has needed no attention whatsoever to the brakes but, again, I don't flog the car.
Cost? One new OEM lug nut costs eight bucks and change, if that tells you anything. Actually, aftermarket belts, hoses, filters, sensors, half-shafts and such are readily available -- and much cheaper than OEM -- if you don't mind running parts that don't bear the Subaru brand.
