If you take the "emotion" out of it and want to go with "logic" this car is definitely not for you. The only thing this car has above all other competitors is a subjective "fun" which is completely base on emotions and how the car makes you feel when you drive it. If you want to go logic then the genesis/mustang gives us most car for the buck.

The reliability concerns you have are unwarranted as long as you get a late model 2014 or a 2015. The seal issue was due to crappy ecu tunes done by subaru in the early model years. The fuel pump is strictly a noise issue has no negative effects on the car.
