 Pros The Subaru's standard All-Wheel drive is always a big selling point for the vehicle. It's especially appreciated in colder climates.

 Pros The upgraded, higher-quality and roomier interior for this 4-door sedan is fantastic. The roomier back seat, specifically, is sure to have tall Subaru fans excited. Previous models left much (room) to be desired for anyone over the age of 12. Storage space is abundant- a feature that families are sure to enjoy!

 Pros The improved fuel economy is an overwhelmingly positive feature. One of the drawbacks to previous Impreza models was their fuel-guzzling capacity. The 2012 Subaru Impreza 2.0i 4-Door Sedan gets 36 mpg on the highway, which is a 38 percent increase from last year's model.

 Pros The Impreza 2.0i's chassis can handle serious off-roading situations, as well as tough, every day driving.

 Pros The Subaru Impreza has impressive safety features. It has been named a "Top Safety Pick" by the IIHS.

 Pros The price is great for what you're getting from the vehicle. The 2012 Subaru Impreza 2.0i 4-Door, priced under $20k, is a great deal, especially once you consider its improved interior and exterior features.

 Cons The exterior of the 2012 Subaru Impreza 2.0i 4-Door Sedan's leaves something to be desired. We didn't really like the styling of last year's model, and while this is better, we have to admit it seems a bit bland.

 Cons The basic 2012 Subaru Impreza 2.0i 4-Door Sedan's audio system could be a lot better. We wish that Mp3 capability was a standard feature, for example.

 Cons We really dislike 2012 Subaru Impreza 2.0i 4-Door Sedan's loss of power and torque. Just because a vehicle is more fuel efficient, doesn't mean it has to suffer this fate.
