I like Subaru's I had a 2010 Impreza which was a great car I probably should have stopped leasing then. And kept this car..
No AWD isn't a necessity, I stay home when more than 6 inches is in forecast.
The reason I'm being so picky this time because I would like the possibility of buying out my next lease. So I want to make sure I want the car for long-term.
Options bell's and whistles aren't a concern either just a fun factor and practical.
How bout the fiesta st? I can always get dedicated snow tires.
