2005 Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Limited AWD 4dr Wagon (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 5A)
Recently bought a 2005 GT Limited wagon (used w/10,000 miles) for the wife. She fell in love with the power during the test drive! Initially I was looking at an old Audi A4 wagon but that was wimpy compared to this. Also I love the new Legacy styling. The car is an awesome performer. I drive a Jag XJR and honestly I don't mind using the Subie one bit! The winter performance and added trunk space makes it even better. For less than $30,000 it's the best wagon; highly recommended.
Turbocharged engine! Provides an amazing thrust of power. What a rush. Heat and A/C are both very powerful. Huge moonroof. AWD makes snow not a problem.
Near impossible to hard wire an mp3 player. C'mon Subaru, it's 2005! At least make it so the radio is replaceable. Mileage isn't too hot either -- getting around 17mpg average.
