Really like the OEM 2020 wheels, short throw shifter option, steerable LED headlights, flat bottom steering wheel, gauges incl. boost, and Recaro seats. The ‘06 was slightly lighter weight with a taller hood scoop and came with terrific foglights (‘20 has none)

    Fun Fact: Subaru developed an App to bring their immensely popular 'seatbelt chime' wherever you go. Waiting in line at the bank? Play the chime on endless repeat and share the Pavlovian experience with those around you. Looking for a new experience in the morning? Set your alarm to go off in the iconic chime. You can even set your "smart" coffee maker, microwave or doorbell to alert you in seatbelt chime.
    Disclaimer: During product development, 22% of subjects developed either acute psychosis, auditory hallucinations, intrusive thoughts and thoughts of suicide or homicide. Discontinue use immediately if any of these symptoms persist for more than 7 days.
