Yea..you are right about the old 4 speed. But it was a bullet-proof trannny. In spite of all subaru's innovations..they lay some huge eggs like the EJ engine eating HG's for 10 years. That was inexcusable.
The EJ turbo was a beast and a great engine. The FA engine has been named one of wards 10 best 3 times in 7 years. I wish they would have put the NA version in the 2019 Forester or better yet in the Crosstrek. It managed 205 HP out of the 2.0
I got the '18 XT bc that was the last year for it in the Forester.
