Yeah, BMW lost me on this one. If it got 33 (or close) or they brought the 2L d they would've had me again. Drove a '14 Forester w/6MT and that will be my CR-Vs replacement with very little doubt. Wish I could have a few things N/A with the manual, but I'll live, its a really solid piece and I'm giving Subie a virtual high five for continuing to offer row your own option. I'd probably get the XT if it had one but I'll save a nice chunk of change up front plus gas, maintenance, etc- I think this car rated at 29 can actually meet or exceed this on long hwy stretches without any eco slo gimmickry. Not quick (don't expect to challenge any X1s
) but not a dog either, nice upgrades over the previous MY.
