Well I had to return the Subaru because of 2 reasons,first the cars ground clearance just didn't cut for my private road in fact I think the yaris had more ground clearance that was the first reason to return the car, second I had the car not even a week and the oil light came on so I check the oil to my surprise NO oil at all on the dip stick dry as could be, so I call the dealership up and said I need a tow back to your dealership once there I requested to return the car fortunately I was still under the 5 day 300 mile money back guarantee that the dealership had, so they took the car back with no question since it was only 4 days and I only had 150 miles on it and gave all my money back. So the other car/vehicle I was considering was the Honda CRV, so they took me to a Honda dealership that wasn't part of their dealership. So I got a brand new 2014 Honda CRV LX it was $2k more than the Impreza and doesn't have heated seats but I think I won't go wrong with the Honda, plus a big plus it's ground clearance is perfect for my road no problems. I will keep you informed of the mileage when I get some miles on it. Here's a picture of it.

Also I saw on the carmax website that my Yaris is selling for $10,899 and they are saying that is it a S model, they gave me $5000 for the car.

I think you'll like the CR-V. I think this is one of the few segments that Honda currently (IMO) executes better than Toyota. At the Houston Auto Show for the 2013 model year (in January of 2013), I spent quite a bit of time sitting in the latest CR-V and the latest RAV4. I liked the CR-V better....better execution of little things that would matter (to me) day to day. I can't remember any of those items (for certain) off the top of my head , but that was my overall impression.
