Well, I tried ..........
For 6 years now I have tried to stand up for the average Subaru Owner, I have brought my considerable Engineering expertise down on the ***** who would scare the **** out of you ..... they don't like it at all (which is a bonus )
I'm getting tired of it all as there are those who have vested interests in making the Impreza out to be the most unreliable car of all time ... unless, of course, you buy their product or service - in which case it becomes a 500BHP snarling tarmac eating beast of a machine with a lifespan measured in Hours!
6 Years of experience around Subarus, Subaru Dealers, Subaru Owners, Subaru Tuners and Subaru Fans in general has taught me a few salient points ... this is probably the only list a newbie will need to save himself a pot of money.
1. Subarus ARE extremely reliable in standard form
2. Standard Subarus do NOT need special expensive Oils
3. Standard Subarus do NOT need special expensive fuels
4. Modifying a Subaru makes it less reliable
5. You do NOT need a CockLink - why buy something that you actually adjust until it doesn't scare you anymore? Just don't buy it in the first place!
6. You do NOT need a re-map if you buy fuel from a garage that happens to display a different LOGO on the forecourt ... the fuels all come from the same refineries
7. Modify your Subaru and reduce its re-sale value massively
8. Rolling Roads are a great get together, but please don't think they are accurate
9. Owning an Impreza Turbo and driving sensible is actually a clever thing to do .... you do not have to drive like a **** whilst holding a Wheel with MOMO on it!
10. Imports are more trouble and less saleable than UK cars
11. Some Subaru Main Dealers actually know what they are doing, shock horror!
12. There is ABSOLUTELY no need to carry out the **** Oil Change Procedure, your engine will NOT blow up if you do as the normal people do
13. Subarus are simple normal cars with simple normal requirements, ok the engine is a boxer engine ... but that makes no difference whatsoever to its maintenance - you do not have to be an **** to look after it correctly
14. The Subaru Impreza is probably one of the greatest cars of all time ... don't let the scaremongerers make you think otherwise!!

I think that the original post sums things up well.
It is a summary that applies to any car with a 'following' (as in my experience of my 20 years of 911 ownership), and will never change.
Owning as I do a modified Sti V3 all is applicable, but i have only found one good Impreza dealer (Andrew Burt Subaru) but he has now closed his doors. The Bug-eye (design) saw to that.
Some points are a sweeping generalisation imho, but I accept where he is coming from.

Perhaps how one responds to this post could be used to determine wihether they are an SN **** Pete, for the record, here are my opinions.
1. Subarus ARE extremely reliable in standard form: Yes, you don't win JD power with unhappy customers.
2. Standard Subarus do NOT need special expensive Oils: No, what Subaru recomend is fine, but it won't hurt to use one of the more expensive proper fully synths (they're only about £14 more each month, anyway) At the very worst, you can say you paid £14 for a 'name' at the best, they'll protect your engine better.
3. Standard Subarus do NOT need special expensive fuels. (Assuming UK car) No, you don't need expensive fuel, but you'll most likely want it) Like any car with active knock control, a scooby will advance/retard ignition timing to account for the octane of the fuel in use. Use crap fuel, the car won't run as well. Simple as that.
4. Modifying a Subaru makes it less reliable. Can do, but not necessarily, sympathetic and intelligently researched mods are fine, go overboard, or install cheap and nasty stuff and prepare to pay!!
5. You do NOT need a CockLink - why buy something that you actually adjust until it doesn't scare you anymore? Just don't buy it in the first place!
Unnecessary in std cars, although can be useful to spot a failing sensor. Wise precaution in a tuned car. Do agree on the adjustment issue, there is little point in having a sensor if you're just going to ignore/modify what it says to meet your own expectations! At the very least, the Girls at Mc D's love em.
6. You do NOT need a re-map if you buy fuel from a garage that happens to display a different LOGO on the forecourt ... the fuels all come from the same refineries Remaps only generally necessary for fueling reasons on imports. Of course if you perform mods on the car, you'll get more if you tell the ECU what's going on; it's designed to adjust parameters within the expected tolerances of a std car, when you modify you can go outside these tolerances.
7. Modify your Subaru and reduce its re-sale value massively: For a certain audience, not for others, it may increase the car's appeal, just don't expect your money back at sale time!
8. Rolling Roads are a great get together, but please don't think they are accurate: True to a certain extent, engine dyno is the most accurate way to measure things. Some RRs are good though, and they have their uses!
9. Owning an Impreza Turbo and driving sensible is actually a clever thing to do .... you do not have to drive like a **** whilst holding a Wheel with MOMO on it! True!!
10. Imports are more trouble and less saleable than UK cars. True for classics; they are -generally speaking- a significantly more risky proposition than UK cars. Not so true with the new age cars though.
11. Some Subaru Main Dealers actually know what they are doing, shock horror! Like any dealer franchise, there are good and bad, probably more bad than good. They are -first and formost- there to shift metal!
12. There is ABSOLUTELY no need to carry out the **** Oil Change Procedure, your engine will NOT blow up if you do as the normal people do
Servicing the car yourself will mean less stamps in the Maintenence book and have a deleterious effect on resale value.
13. Subarus are simple normal cars with simple normal requirements, ok the engine is a boxer engine ... but that makes no difference whatsoever to its maintenance - you do not have to be an **** to look after it correctly.
They are high performance cars developing over 100bhp per litre, they require prompt and diligent maintenence, not pampering. Like any car, it pays to have it taken care of by peole who Know the car, not greasy bob who may have seen one for an MOT 5 years back!
14. The Subaru Impreza is probably one of the greatest cars of all time ... don't let the scaremongerers make you think otherwise!!
Couldn't agree more and don't listen to anyone who tell you they're slow!
SN ***** aren't so unreasonable after all!

NS04 good reply .... by that reply you are only on the fringes of Analism
There is still time to pull back from the edge!!
I would take issue will a couple of your excellent points:-
The expensive oils do NOT protect your engine any better, what they do is allow to to extend the oil change or operate in extreme conditions ... if you drive your car sensibly then there is NO extra protection afforded.
Servicing the car DIY is fine, I think, after about 5 years .... the effect on value come re-sale is minimal at that time as condition takes over dictating the value.
Other than that there isn't a great deal between us
Corradoboy ..... good contribution

a) the size of your fuel tank
b) what brake calipers are fitted to your car
and finally (hilarious)
c) what happens beyond 3000rpm..!
FFS Pete my 2 year old son knows more about scoobs than you..!
Just stick to the rocket science/nuclear weaponary (oh and your 'Magnum' lol )
