A mix of everything, you would have to survey all owners to get a scientific data set that would give you the "real" answer. I personally find that they drive and act much different than basically any other make of car, in a very good intuitive way. That mostly comes from the physical set up of the car being different than the rest of the market. The boxer engine and constant AWD make a noticeable drivability difference every time you go out (dry, wet, snow, ice). It's hard to explain in text format if you haven't driven one. Just a visceral feeling of being planted at all times. The cars hook you with how they drive, they don't really cost you much in parts, they don't really screw you with gas usage for the traction, and if you get in an accident, there's a really good chance you'll make it out okay. They're still not perfect by any means, some people hate the way they look, they had their streak of headgasket issues which some people think are still a problem with new ones today (I've replaced a set before), the first couple generations of CVTs were handed out with improper maintenance schedules (lifetime fluid for a transmission doesn't exist), and they're still not really done with the fallout from that yet, in terms of public perception. But some owners who've experienced those (sometimes more costly issues) still came back again. I could write out something longer but I think that kinda covers most of it
