you would enjoy a hyundai kona (new gen 2024+) far moreWAY better tech/infotainmentless shitty engine doubly so if you get the turbo much newer and less shitty/poor
>>28798242Don't buy one.>>28798245Gookshills must die.
it's not a premium brand, a lot of noisedon't be poor please
>>28798242eurotrash are the only wagons worth buying
>CVTIf you need any more reason not to buy one, you're beyond help.
>half the threads on /o/ are about cuckoversits so over...
>>28798270Tourists are always going to be a problem on every board.
stay away from CVT junk, OP.if you insist on buying a cuckover, look at offerings from hyundai/kia such as the sportage. they often come with an S tier DCT. almost on par with a fucking PDK (no joke)
>>28798283>they often come with an S tier DCTI think only the larger Sorento/Santa Fe have the DCT and it was actually not that well reputed (low speed instability) to the point where they phased it out but I think the 2.5T engine upgrade (most do not have this), is the only one to get the DCT I'm pretty sure the hybrids have the 6 speed conventional automaticthe 2.5T is the nicer engine for sure, but test drive the transmission to be sure you like it, or be rich and buy a new one...but that's two sizes larger than what op wants >almost on par with a fucking PDK (no joke)i've heard the DCT used in the Elantra and maybe also the Kona N is nice but it's a different design (wet clutch?) from the DCT used in the Santa Fe/Sorento and it's much nicer than that one, which car reviewers usually complained about - tho I've never driven either transmission in person myself.
>>28798242These seem so useless. Why not just go for the Outback? At least you can sleep in it when AI/the third world takes your IT career away from you.
>I'm sharing a board with cuckover buyersMaybe this world really is another worlds hell
>>28798245It would feel fancy for a year tops until everything starts fucking up just ouside of warranty
>>28798242You're not a lesbian are you?
>>28798300I mean, there's more to go wrong, it's certainly not as cheap as a Subaru, but it isn't error-prone specifically either, it's just a bit more in maintenance costs but you also get a way newer/nicer/better/roomier vehicle.
>>28798242>weak engine>CVT>ancient and SLOW infotainment screen>too small to haul much of anythingIf that doesn't convince you, at least wait until the new gen is out and they fix the dogshit tablet screen.
>>28798242its a great car. I've had mine for something like 7 or 8 years now. never had any problems. it's really fucking slow but it's easy to drive because it has such good visibility and it's small. good price. driven across usa 4 times with it now. lived with it in 5 different states. does well in the winter, drives on shitty roads. I've taken it off road many times. it's so cheap I never felt I had to worry that much about it. I spent something like 2 years looking at cars before I bought it and made dozens of threads on /o/ back then. I became quite hated. crossovers were even more hated back then. it wasn't that popular of a car back then but now you see a lot of them on the road.for ages I wanted to get a better car but it was always so straightforwardly adequate and good enough at everything I never needed to buy one. I sort of wish I bought a more fun car when I was younger back then. now I need something like this since I have a family. these days I guess I'll drive it into the ground, or until some woman on their phone or illegal immigrant crashes into me.
>>28798270Explain the hate to me.
>>28801041Boring transportation appliances on an enthusiast board. They're not being posted by /o/ natives, they're being posted by tourists going "Oh, I wonder if they people on this board will help me?"
>>28798689Bro I have the opposite problem. I've been buying practical cars like this for too long and now that I can afford a WRX I want one. Going to pull the trigger in a couple months so I don't have such shit negative equity.
>>28798242A 911 is better. Get a 911.
>>28798242because Toyota are more reliable and have more power?
>>28801133genuinely horrid interiortiny, cramped, cheapkia/hoon beat it in every regard
>>28798689>good visibilityYou just migrated from a Camaro or somethin?>I can FINALLY see where I'm going
>>28801137Piss Off, Azztek pilot.
>>28801041Simple, these cars are all the same thing, the entire point of being a car enthusiast is that you find something unique that you might like, CUVs are all the same car.There's no difference between Crosstreks, CX30s, Cross, Konas, HR-Vs, etc. They're all the exact same car. And all of these mouthbreathing wastes of humanity are showing up here asking us to help them choose between them, when there's so little difference that they might as well choose which salesman at the dealership treated them nicer, that's how little difference there is between them.
>>28801284WRONGthe Kona is by far the nicest of those options
>>28801288Shut the fuck up gook lover.
>>28798242It's a crossover, get the WRX or Legacy if you want a Subaru>>28798245Begone shill
>>28798242It's ugly and gay
What is the last year that came with a manual? I hate CVTs
>>28798245>WAY better tech/infotainmentI have a smartphone for that. >less shitty engine doubly so if you get the turboSubaru's boxer will either die well within the warranty period or go 200k before needing a rebuild. Korean engines are specifically designed to grenade exactly 5 years, 0 days and 3 hours into the sale to fuck you over.>much newerThat's a bad thing. Subaru is proven.>less shitty/poorKorean luxury is percieved below Japanese budget options. Korean budget options are barely above chinkshit in public view.
Buy an ez36 outback with a 4eat/5eat whatever they have if you need an auto
>>28801092>muh sekret club4chan is dying grandpa. you should be grateful anyone even comes to this ghost town of a board.
>>28802412So faggots that don't have anything of value to contribute can just hasten the death of worthwhile content? Fuck you, and fuck your CVT cuckover. You have nothing to contribute. Try >>>/wsr/ next time.
>>28798242CVT. Transmission is a wear item that will fail. It's posturing as an offroadey lifted wagon for lesbians but with the transmission it's useless off road.
>>28801288It'll need three engines before you hit 30k miles, not even bmws are that unreliable
>>28798270let the normies have the cuckover fwd shitboxesawd and rwd utes sedans wagons vans trucks and coupes will remain chads
