I'm also possibly in the market for a Crosstrek, any thoughts on what I've read about poor acceleration? I don't drive like a leadfoot so having a super punchy car isn't a priority for me, just enough to get a good highway merging when there's a monster hurdling into your rear view mirror. Also I would suspect this would be easier with manual transmission, which I'm also hoping for.

I'm definitely not coming from a fast car, currently it's a Pontiac G6 (pretty heavy power for me, not used to V6's), then it was a Suzuki XL7 (sluggish), then a Mazda 3 (perfectly zippy enough for me). Good to know, I may indeed have to do a test drive. Basically my top criteria is AWD, hatchback, roof rack, and preferably manual trans. Which means the Crosstrek, Impreza hatchback, Outback, and Forester seem to meet all my needs... But this dang Crosstrek looks the nicest to my eyes.
