My car was totaled about six weeks ago. A month ago I ordered a Subaru Impreza (being redone so unable to test drive but no obligation). The guy said they should have it in mid-late November. I found out today that due to a master cylinder issue, it won't be here until likely January. I live in Ohio and HATE driving in inclement weather, hence the subaru. I am currently driving my parents' extra car, which is NOT good for winter. Not sure what to do. My backup plan was the Subaru Legacy (also a sedan but a little more expensive, little bigger, gas mileage not as good but few other features). They are trying to get me one to test drive, hopefully next week and then possibly might be able to secure me a loaner. What would you do?
