Quiet is the new loud.

Its sad that nobody is interested in making cars sound better, perform better or look better. All people want is safeth this and quieter that. Cars are much less fun. It all started with the dissapearance of the manual trans

Yea the 6th gens are already really quiet. What is the need to make them quieter? Whats wrong with a little engine and road noise?

Why is noise reduction such a big issue? As I have mentioned, I have a '14 and a '16 and the 16 is 3 times quieter already. You should be able to hear your surroundings at least a little bit and engine noise too. Whaf2f if you have a strange sound that needs attention but you can't hear it? Also I have a Magnaflow Cat back on my 14 so noise is really not an issue lol

I meant the blind spot detection for the light flashing. Ot illuminates to make you aware of vehicles in your blind spot. The point is, Subaru no longer caters to to people like me and many others, but rather wants to make their vars the same as every other manufacturer. And I know you can turn everything off. But you have to do it everytime you start the vehicle. And yes I could get a WRC or a Miata or a friggen NSX haha but its fun to have a sleeper like a Legacy. And look, I have a 2016 Legacy and a 2014. Neither have eyesight or lane keep assist or anything. Mahbe Im a bad example because hell, I don't even want a friggen sunroof but I just hope they don't make it a standard feature. And I REALLY hope they dont bring it over to the WRX/ STi. And as I previously mentioned, these features do malfunction and break. And the repairs are costly. The fewer additional features a car has, the less stuff to break and more money in your pocket

I just feel as though its over engineering. It takes fun out of spirited driving. I like to take drives on curvy roads at speed and once in a while tear down empty highways. Its fun. And I dont want my car to beep at me or flash lights. I have 3 mirrors and a brake pedal. I test drove a 2017 3.6R. It was a fun car but the one I took for a test drive had eyesight and lane assist. It kept flashing lights at me whenever a car traveling the opposite direction was techically in my blind spot. Now I know I am young, and nobody is perfect at anything and yes, I probably will be in some accident at some point, but to me, a car doesnt need all the tech. Its extra stuff to break, and believe me, I work at an Acura dealer in the parts dept, it is NOT cheap to repair

The new technology is not to hinder your driving is to save li from all the other idiots on the road.

You see, I have been driving for 7 years, and have never had any technological assistance. I have never had an accident, and every time anyone has ever pulled out in front of me, cut me off, tailgated me or brake checked me, I have been able to stop or maneuver around it. I also don't ever use cruise control, as it allows you to be to comfortable and lose a bit of attentiveness. Just my thoughts

Bring back the LGT with a 6 speed and turbocharged 2.5

I personally hate all additional tech features in cars. I dont want my car to tell me how to drive or drive for me. Or tell me when cars are approaching in my blind spot. People have been managing for YEARS without all that. I don't need a 3000 Navi when I gmcan get a plethora of other aftermarket units for 150 and I feel as though people have lost the interest just simply driving. No additional electronics, no fancy stuff. Just enjoying the drive
