    I don't know whats this thing with Subaru but it seems every sports car they make they just have to put that bonnet scope (whatever you call it) and it just looks so ugly at times.

    im sure theres a reason, thats a pretty powerful engine under there. The legacy outback is one of the best 4x4 saloons out there, its better than the audi thats for sure.

    That's where the intercooler is, due to the configuration of the engine, there is no other spot.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    A better car to compare to the S4 would be the Legacy 3.0r or the B4 Twin Turbo.

    Even then i'd still pick the Outback. But make sure its the NZ market one not the ugly American one.l

    The subaru I'd imagine has amazing offroad performance. But I have to say the Audi..........I just like them more. I like the body of the Audi alot more than the subaru.

    The Audi IMO. It does the job with a bit more finesse IMO.
