OUTBACK H6 SEDAN - SUBARU'S NEW FLAGSHIP
Last year, Subaru gave us a six cylinder version of its legendary flat-four boxer engine and it was a welcome component that gave more life to the maker's beautiful station-wagon, the Outback. But that was the problem. The H6 was only available in the wagon. Not any more since in 2002, it is possible to order the Outback sedan with the H6. This new mill pumps out a serious 212 horsepower, and that is quite enough to carry the 1,547 kilos car around with ease. Unfortunately, it is only available with a four-speed automatic transmission. A five-speed manual tranny would be more convincing here.
