Id always rather have a Toyota badge than a subaru badge if given the choice!

Im fed up with Toyota tarnishing their reputation by hijacking other peoples cars the GT86 and the new series of vans they have released!

Given Subaru's track record with the 2.5's, I'd go for the Toyota model

Having driven both, I would get the Toyota as it comes with a better warranty. They drove so similar it would be down to which ever was the better price on the day. Both had a lot of character but I went home in the m235i

This was discussed on launch of the 2 models, the consensus being , given subaru's customer relations & willing to deal (help ) customers .. The Toyota was a much safer bet.
Just look at the recall statistics from Toyota & how there customer reviews a parallel to none

Toyota all the way for me

As said it's not the difference in the cars, as there's very little in it, but in the after care and warranty.
