Warranty Issues!

2007 Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Limited 4dr Sedan AWD w/Navi (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 5A)

The car performs as expected and I am generally pleased, but as soon as you have a warranty issue Subaru of America will look to weasel out. They immediately demand copies of receipts for oil changes and say that all turbo engines must be serviced as shown under severe service conditions regardless of how you drive. This is an obvious contraction to what the service manual states. An extended service contract is a must for the turbo, but still be prepared to duke it out when you try to use it! Research Subaru forums on warranty issues and read about all of the people getting jerked around. Consider with the added cost of the service contract, other awd makes might be a better purchase.

Legacy at Head of Class

I wanted a mid-size sports sedan, and Legacy really stands out. Nothing under $21 K compared to it. I think engineering, not marketing is behind the Legacy. The 2.5 boxer engine runs smooth and provides plenty of power. AWD adds a whole lot to road performance (although it lowers fuel economy a bit). Interior is first class; no cheap material or gimmicks. Same outside; nice clean styling. Subaru says 95% of all its cars sold in the last ten years are still on the road. I tend to keep cars, so I'm guessing mine will be, too, and still look good.

For starters i drive a 2.5i SE this car was almost fully loaded, the cars gas mileage was less then what i had expected but vary reliable at my security job witch i drive over 150miles a night, only now having to deal with upkeep after owning it for one year (tires breaks ext...) never missed a single oil change and beats good at 150k. has a little lag to when you hit the gas if your not in semi manual mode. horrible grip on ice but grips alright on snow and rain, i would slow down accordingly to traffic. seats arnt the most comfy in the world but for someone who doesn't slouch in there chair its really comfortable. steering wheel could have had more up and down adjustments to it. vehicle is well made although has some throttle issues on idle from the ac/heater unit that may not even be an issue more or less a nuisance if you don't like your car making sounds. Car definitely has a personality of its own, it will tell you if you ever get low on oil just by how it idles. i have caught the oil low two times now from idle and have yet to see the oil light on except for when doing oil changes. Definitely not a race car and Definitely not a toy, leave that to cheaper modified cars. minor issue would be on dash where the material they used is easily rubbed to skin and bone but easily replaced. Moon roof never leaks and really ease to work on. Finally for the ricers, yes they do have tailfins and a tow bar please dont modify it, it looks bad.

Drive this car

Bought my Subaru Legacy in October. Have the 4 door Sedan Special Edition Auto. It is a blast to drive. Passing performance is excellent. MPG is good for AWD car. Get mid 20's in city, 30 or just under on highway. Very quiet inside and visibility out is perfect. New this year for sedan are 60/40 split fold down seats and mp3 aux input. Dash is easy to read, safety scores are tops. Interior is classy and well put together. There is a rattle or two however. Drive this car before buying any other mid-size sedan.

Oh but for the seats

The legacy is a good proposition if you're expecting a kid and want basic transportation. It has one fatal flaw that is resulting in me getting rid of it: The seats. The seats are so uncomfortable that I would be prepared to take a loss on the car just to get out of it. My wife's rabbit is a much better vehicle in terms of comfort, despite its smaller size.
