Love this car, great value for the money. 4wd is what makes the difference in this segment, hard to find without spending much more. I have had 2 Legacy's before this, the brick is much more refined. Only issue is the touch controls for heated seats and temp control, they don't capture the contact if you wear gloves and even with bare finger the touch often requires several taps before it recognizes. It distracts the driver and is therefore dangerous.

This is a GM large European sports sedan it rides stiff and controlled like a Euro sedan should. I don't sit in the back, but it looks cramped. This is a way better car than my 2006 SAAB 2.0LT 6M. Larger, heavier and has a much higher level interior quality. Overall a very well balanced car for the $ refined and pretty fast. Twin Scroll turbo and 6 speed auto are well matched can feel the gears in smooth shifts. My opinion GM still makes the best automatics.

This model is exceptional in every way except for ok gas mileage. Limited menu scrolling, controls are truly intiative, acceleration and handling makes this a pleasure to drive. Initial lease was FWD, 2nd model is AWD. Love this car!

Absolutely blown away by the sheer reliability of this car! Going on 5 years now with zero issues! Excellent AWD system, extremely quiet, shifts so smoothly, and powerful.

This car gives me the shivers. I love driving it. I've wanted an older sports car but I find I don't need one anymore because the Regal is so much fun to drive
