Hard to get the best out of that motor with the CVT perhaps...

Once up and moving it goes quite nicely. A catback should also make for a better flat-six note.

Another option (albeit smaller) is the upcoming Levorg 2.0 litre GT wagon. Similar in size to my Gen4 JDM Legacy GT-B, but with WRX underpinnings.

This was part of a Carsguide review (17/05/2016) on the 2016 Outback 3.6R

Drawbacks
It's not perfect - the big six uses a fair bit of fuel (16.2L/100km for us in city driving), the EyeSight system frantically beeps at you when you round a corner and there's a car on the other side of the road - that can get a bit tiring. The entertainment system is a bit old and creaky feeling and there are too many buttons in weird places. Last but not least, the ride is a bit rough around town.
