convertible car seats

Any recommendations on convertible car seats? I have a Subaru Impreza, so I'm concerned with it fitting. I've been looking at Britex and Evenflo

    I have a Subaru Legacy and a Britax Boulevard.  We love the seat, it was easy to install and DD seems very comfortable.  She screamed constantly in the infant seat and plays happily or sleeps in this one.

    I have an Evenflo and I hate it. It worked well for RFing, but once I turned her around, the straps would NOT stay above shoulder level where they need to be. I almost want to get a different seat for DD2, but it should be fine until she FF after age 2....

    I have a Subaru Impreza also and I have an two carseats in the back (one infant).  I have an Evenflo Triumph. It is really large for the car, it takes up 1 1/2 seats!  It is so cramped back there.  I bought a Britax Marathon for my other LO to use when he out grows the infant seat...I like it much better, it's more compact!

    I would not recommend the Truefit. That's the one I have and it is a pain to buckle into the car and takes up a ton of room once you put the headrest on. I'd love a different car seat but this one works perfectly safe so it would be silly to buy a new one just because it's a giant PITA.

    If cost isn't an issue then I recommend the foonf.  It doesn't take up a lot of room, has a high rear facing weight limit (50 lbs) and a really high shell.  If cost is an issue then I recommend the my ride 65.  The britax s are nice but they don't have tall shells so they aren't good for extended rear facing.
