I've had a 4-cylinder Legacy Outback for 6 months now. I thought I'd just "slow down a bit." After years and years with a 6-cylinder Accord prior to the Outback, I find that I'm still wondering if I made a mistake. The car has gotten faster as it broke in, but I still have to plan merges and entrances into traffic very carefully. I used to just put my foot down and be done with it.
I recently drove a turbo Outback. It is a fast bugger, but it's not really any different off the line, as the turbo is not spooled up at a stop.
I did some research after the purchase and I see the salesman was not 100% informed when he told me that the "ONLY" difference between the cars was the engine.
Can you compare the 4- to the 6-cylinder for "off the line" performance? How about mileage? How about the different type of AWD or any other features that I may have overlooked? If cost was not a factor, would it be worth trading my car for a new one with the 6-cylinder engine?
Thanks.
