1992-97 Subaru SVX

Unique in design, the SVX never caught on in the sales race. Not in the same performance league as the Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo/Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4, which also have all-wheel drive, SVX is the [...]

2000-04 Subaru Legacy/Outback

Considerably better than its predecessor, the Legacy isn't an attractive value apart from its AWD system. A six-cylinder Outback wagon stands out for SUV looks and all-wheel-drive traction, [...]

2002-07 Subaru Impreza

2004-06 Scion xA

It may be badged a Scion, but the xA is pure Toyota. That implies solid workmanship and long-lived reliability, plus strong resale values, though it's too early to tell how Scions fare on that [...]

2004-06 Scion xB

The xB melds hip-hop style with box-on-wheels practicality in a solid, pleasant little wagon with the bonus of Toyota's reputation for reliability, durability and quality workmanship. As such, [...]
