Not sure what's not to like about the boxer engines. In my experience the naturally aspirated ones go forever with regular maintenance. The EJ22 being king, and the original DOHC EJ25D being the worst. But even my EJ25D is strong after 180k.

I have bad luck with turbo Subies though. They tend to be beat to death though.
