I took my Subaru Crosstrek in for service today and while waiting, I had time to admire this new 2021 Crosstrek in “Pure Red”. It’s such a nice color! If it were available when I was shopping for my Crosstrek, I would have considered it. But ultimately, I would still have chosen the “Cool-Gray Khaki”, which I still love.
My Subaru Crosstrek is just about the perfect vehicle for me… it ticks all the boxes: relatively fuel efficient, not too big, good ground clearance, reliable, looks nice, simple dashboard/controls, and Subaru is a good company. And I love the heated seats! I’d definitely buy again.
The actual service and state inspection took about 45 minutes, and the waiting area is in a huge, open area so I wasn’t too worried about COVID-19. Plus, there was only one other person waiting, and everyone working was masked up. The weather was nice enough that I could have waited outside, but I just parked my butt in one of the cubicles they have set up and worked with my laptop. As usual, it was a pleasant experience at my local Subaru dealership. Very satisfied!
I always like the idea of having a red car but, ultimately choose something more subtle.
