the video is all pretty, but listen closely to a subby in person, you can hear the pistons slap! oh wait, i get it, making it a diesel, that noise will be 'natural'.

if the SOB gets 50mpg like the VW, I don't care if it's a flat four, inline 4, V-4 or R-4 or A-4...

No piston slap in the one we own...its an impressive car....
all-wheel, nicely appointed and reasonably priced...id buy another
'specially if it were a diesel.

the awd really takes its toll on mpg...we get 22-24mpg
city/combined driving and about the most ive ever seen
outta it on a lengthy interstate trip is about 26/27mpg.

its very confident in the rain and almost impossible to
get loose in the snow.
