I have a 2002 gtb twin turbo and i get 550ks per 55l and it has done over 600ks. Surely a non turbo will get even better than that.

Depends how you drive it - around town or commuting, the inertia of the AWD makes it thirstier than you'd think.

Well, Subaru have used that EJ20 donk for about a million years - I'm not sure how much better they could make the economy.
Plus, they tend to get heavier with more fruit.
TBH - I wouldn't look at Subarus if I was worried about economy.

if you are after economy, don't buy a Subaru, AWD is always gunna be thirsty and pre BL Legacy handled like FWD cars. My BL 3.0R Legacy drinks 30L for approx 270kms around town, doesn't have the grunt of the turbo, but just about as thirsty, but a really good handler, neutral as.

What a load of rubbish about the pre BL models being like fwd are you serious! Those figures show your 3.0l drinks more fuel than my twin turbo to. Yes you may pay extra for awd but its a small price to pay for the safety and handling you get from it.
