As always, the NA market doesn't get the best. Everywhere in the world except North America they get the original Legacy, which has HIDs, DVD, GPS, navigation, better tires and windshield wipers, more toys, better looking front and rear bumpers, as well as many others. On the other hand, since many Americans think bigger is better, we get bigger engine (but not more horsepower) and bumpers (the original smaller ones look 10 times better). And since typical Americans are not willing to pay "too much" for a "Subaru," the Legacy comes standard with poor all-season tires that don't perform well in almost any situation, especially in snow and rain.

Surprising Subaru

While mileage could be better, this is a drivers car in every respect. Rear seats do not fold down, and that would help increase room in trunk area. Rear seats are very comfortable, though. Otherwise, loaded with power and safety and class. A-

I couldn't believe how well this car handles when I test drove it. A the power it has is great! I was looking at the rough riding WRX Sti but it didn't compare with this car. A lot of room in the truck. The heated seats get a bit too hot for me on low. Not a bad ride for those long drives.

I am very happy with my purchase. As a 6ft 260+lb'er, I am able to fit comfortably. The vehicle glides down the road. Car is put together nice and tight-no squeaks or rattles, very quiet. Both the interior and exterior styling are excellent. The MPG is not even close to that listed on the window sticker, it's more like 18 city/22 hwy. Not being a turbo, from a stop, the car is not the fastest but at highway speed there is plenty of pedal in reserve. I constantly find myself excessively over the speed limit.
