Definitely CVT noise. Worst transmissions ever. Subaru make great cars and spoil them with this.

The opposed cylinder arrangement of the "boxer" style engine in Subaru's gives it a unique sound not unlike old VW's.. You can't compare it the Neon.

Your engine sounds different because it's a different engine.

Does your car has a CVT transmission?  Yes?  They sound like that, like a continuous whine.
