Buy the Acura.
1. It's reliable, me and my wife just traded our 02 type S in like a year ago and it was running like it was brand new at 160k miles
2. Resale value is great. We got 8 grand for the car because some kid at the dealership was willing to exceed the kbb. .
3. They're zippy as fuck. Not fast by any definition of the word, but the little 6 speed will boogy down the highway.
4. The hatch has decent space as long as you negate the back seats.
5. Gas milage is pretty decentight
Gl either way.

If it's ur first car get an Acura
Subarus are not for noobie first cars and I'm not being mean.
They are sometimes difficult to work on due to engine design.
Yeah you have more power than the Acura but as uncle Ben would say
With great power comes great responsibility plus more power =more chances shit will break
Just take the Acura
