I am trying to decide which car to buy. It's between the new Crosstrek and Impreza. I've driven both of those as well as the Forester. All of them apparently have the same 2.0 motor. So my question is, why is the Crosstrek noticeably lacking in torque from a stoplight? I would like to buy the Crosstrek, but with the lack of power I'm strongly considering the Impreza (especially considering the better gas mileage rating).
Any insights? Thank you!
