Yeah. Find an old ej253 and just run it. The new impreza rs isn’t worth the $30k+ it’s going for. Rather get the mazda 3 turbo for that price
30 grand? 
uugh. yeah I guess mazda it is 
painful
@Baylor
This is my exact current predicament. Mazda3 turbo or Impreza RS… also the new civic hybrid is interesting too
@Baylor
Mazda is awesome now. Almost my whole immediate family had a mazda at the same time

I just wish it would have a manual transmission offered. It definitely won’t, but hey… lol
Sadly the venn diagram between potential manual buyer and actual buyer of the Wilderness is about zilch, essentially a margin of error

Make it 3. Got a WRX when shopping last time just because they didn’t have manual outbacks anymore
@BillSmith
I’d love a manual Outback…or a manual Levorg. In fact, I’d rather have a manual 2.5 than a CVT 2.4T…some of us just really enjoy manuals.

You’re in luck!
Sporty Subaru drivers will be delighted to know that the Outback’s transmission offers an 8-speed manual mode option with adaptive control for a smooth, adventurous ride that allows car and driver to build a connection on the road.
There’s absolutely no difference
@Vincent
All they need to do is come up with a fake clutch pedal and I’ll be 100% fooled 
to be fair the autos with a manual shift mode are much less annoying to drive. esp in the mountains.
The screen is a dead giveaway that the spy photos are not a Forester. That and the rear side window is too short and long

Keep in mind test vehicles use bolted on parts for the sole purpose of testing without finished interiors. I know this for a fact as a longtime friend has been in the car testing industry for 32 years and says this is common to stop spy shots leaking out of the finished product. That’s not to say the new Outback won’t change from the current setup. They may have listened to customer feedback and decided to change the layout especially after the latest warranty extension on center units with screens going blanks and replacement units costing over 4k.
Good Lord that vehicle is BIG
Different cars. The camouflaged on the left has different rear door window arrangement and different taillights. You can see that the Forester on the right has the light bar going straight, while the car on the left has a kink in it before straightening out. Also, the left one has much larger quarter glass in the back compared to the right one
The rear window/d-pillar area is much longer on the spied car
God their design language stinks lately
