Subaru Legacy 2005Change

I bought my Legacy used with 200k on it. It was great car for whole year driving, with only minor repairs that I have dne after I purchased it and then just changed the oil. Very good on gas and amazing acceleration thanks to the gearbox.

Sorry Subie! Great ride for long distances, hard to beat at high speed cruising, super-smooth 6 cylinder boxer that revs to the redline with no qualms, tough car for carrying really heavy loads, takes on most terrains regular family cars would get stuck on, saved us from many tricky road situations (ice, snow, heavy rain) with surefooted handling, but after 150K so many things started to go wrong at great expense - shafts that wore out (both front and central one going to rear. $2k+), bearings that whined (changed 2 so already $500+). Small electrical issues (hatch solenoid, rear wipers etc.) and several small bits of broken plastic trim.
Four wheel drive and boxer engine layout takes a toll on cabin space - there's little more room inside than a Honda Civic, except maybe wider a little. Large trunk swallows almost anything though.
Drank like a sailor (13l/100km city mostly, could never get it below 10l/100km even on long lightfooted cruises). I'm sure I actually saw the fuel needle moving down visibly before as I accelerated on highways!
Totaled by a stupid truck with a heavy bullhorn recently.
Overall, I will miss this car in spite of its quirkiness. Loads of character. It's a great car but be prepared to pay to keep it going.

This car has served us very well. We have driven in many weather conditions and it performed beautifully. It is a fun car to drive in that it hugs the corners well! It is also a great car for people who need to haul items around, great cargo space. The only reason we are selling was so that we could buy a newer Subaru for retirement.

excellent on snow & ice - comes with 4 winter tires for driving to the mountain
carry all your sports & camping gear, including your best friend - dog & cat

This car has been great! I wish I didn't have to sell it. It's the most fun-to-drive car I've ever owned. Super fast and reliable. the symmetrical all wheel drive is unstoppable in the snow and confidence inspiring in the rain. These cars are sought after and have a huge fan base and many internet forums dedicated to their incredible performance.

I picked this car of lease with 103,000km and have drove it for almost another 200Km with few issues . great stability and handling quick and reliable has never left me on the road its one of the best autos out there. great looks and comfort/ safety what more can you ask from a car I will continue to buy Subaru.

this is great car. ive never had any problems with it nor have i to replace any parts. just general maintainance. great handling with a smooth ride. japanese reliability. i wish more people would invest in subaru vehicles they are one of a kind.

What an awesome car. Great gas mileage for a turbo and super handling. Cornering and acceleration are superb, especially with Michelin Pilots on board. Love the Mono steering wheel.

This is my second Legacy. First was the 2000 GT. The one I have now is even better minus the turbo. The performance and handling are off the charts. All-wheel drive. Gas consumption is the only complaint.

Subaru Legacy Wagon is a very good and reliable car. During 7 years I have not had any problems. The permanent all wheel drive is making this a perfect car for canadian winter.
