Frankly, if I were in the market for an AWD car/small suv, Subaru is about the only make I would consider. Sorry G-35x drivers, but I would have saved the dough and purchased either a Legacy sedan or an Outback. Just my opinion.

The 2003 always starts
out in fourth gear, does not downshift at a stop and does not hold the
selected gear.

The tranny IS actually downshifting but the indicator is just showing you the highest gear selection. It sucks but if you do it yourself you get used to it. When I drive an 05 or my fiance's car I forget to upshift sometimes and overrev. At this point I sort of enjoy the fact that if I don't manually shift down to 1, then it will shift up for me from a stop without me letting the engine rev to 6000 before I remember to shift.
