Balanced and responsive handling. Reliable. Consistent. Good-looking too. VERY enjoyable to drive, especially when dusting cruising kids who don't expect a wagon to zip around them. :) And oh yeah, the AWD absolutely parties when you have good tires (mine are currently Bridgestone Potenza RE71s)-- no hydroplaning, no slip, nothing. Owns the pavement...
Photos shows how looks a car produced that year. Note that any specimen of this model may have little differences in exterior and interior pics (restyling, face lifting, additional accessories).
