简单。look at VIN number and pick a car starting with J

Toyota now holds a portion of Subaru shares.

dreamcar1 写了： 2024年 10月 16日 00:09 准备换车。现在开的是2017 Subaru Legacy，体验很不错。 就是路噪有点高。车有点老
所以试开了2025 的LEGACY。和17年的几乎感觉一样，但是新车upgrade电子设备，新的adaptive cruise control， 和大屏幕中控。MSRP 30XXX， SALE price 26500；很值得

又试开了2025 Camry hybrid， 感觉更legacy驾驶感觉接近，也很不错，路噪也不小。Camry AWD LE，MSRP 325XX， SALE price 大概31000。 所以大概比LEGACY贵5000， 但是Hybrid， 省油。

有点拿不定主意，两个都不错，Edmund 对这两车的评分也很接近。

Camry LE AWD, 稍贵了， 因为再加点钱就可以买个2-3 年新的入门级luxury car。hybrid，不知道8-9年后还好卖么？对Camry 也不熟悉，

Legacy， 担心2025是最后一年生产，以后就没有了，而且reliability比Camry 低一些。好像买legacy不太popular。估计明年dealer 会把卖不掉的低价处理。就像dodge charger。。。以后再卖也卖不出价。。。

请各位分享一下想法！

had the Santa Fe for 2-3 weeks for 200-300 miles.
Overall it feels ok. Not so great as I expected but not bad either.

pro: it is a new car with new tech: the lane keep function holds the line better than my old Subaru. it drives very smoothly over a big curve on highway. But the auto cruise control is a bit bumpy. as it gets closer to a front car, it immediately slows down; or after the front car goes to another line, it speeds up (too quickly) sharply back to the pre-set speed.
it is convenient to open the door automatically as you approach close to the car especially in the winter time

con: 1. new tech does make it a bit overwhelming, engine shut down/autohold/carplay and many settings. i need to shut down the engine-shut down button right after ignition.
2. driving feel is less optimal than subaru legacy. Driving a suv just feels bulkier than a sedan. road noise goes up a lot after speed is above 60mph.
3. feels the AWD is not as strong as the Subaru...
4. suspension might be too soft... feel the road is bumpier...

any comments ....

Santafe我试过，开着很难受，空间小，悬挂硬，很颠，就像开实心轮胎一样。任何一个其他牌子的车都更输服，可能除了kia,所有开过kia的朋友都说kia是开着最难受的车，所以我买车时根本没试。如果有十年二十万迈warranty的话就还凑合吧。至少power train 方面能安心了。
