Every review and Subaru lovers say how great it is, yet I find the 2.5L NA motor is one of the biggest reason not to buy the car. I drove a 2.0T Forester back to back. Even without driving fast, you can feel how much more quiet and less annoying the engine is. My uncle, who is not a car guy at all, noted how bad the engine sounds up top compare to his regular Honda Civic sedan. With the new CVT constantly revving high too, it is almost unavoidable to miss the scream of the motor scream.
