Will Not Buy It Again!
We had such high hopes for our new 2016 Legacy 3.6R, however the electronics became a problem. We will not purchase a Subaru again (been a loyal Subaru owner since 1997). NEVER again!!

I own this car, Love my Subaru Legacy Limited!
I've owned this car for 3 years, it's given me no problems. Nothing but joy. Very comfortable interior, spacious and well-designed. Heated seats both front AND REAR, everything works great and it's very easy to drive. AWD makes navigating in the snow a breeze - I've never felt like I wasn't in complete control. Camel (Ivory) leather inside doesn't get super hot like black leather. The car runs really well, has good guts for a 4-cylinder (1st 4-cyl car I've ever owned!), has plenty of power. Combined mileage is about 18 MPG (most of my driving is short hops in the city) and the ride is very smooth, car handles real well.

A decent AWD car
I have the base model and I like the CVT Transmission that is smooth in transition. Unlike most people complained, acceleration is not poor or bad and actually its good and got better after I changed my airfilter to K&N. Its roomy and the ride quality is good. However, I would prefer that Subaru improves the ride quality and make it more cushy drive with soft ride especially on bumps and on pot holes, suspension is not helping. My car fish tailed at least in two incidences of snow despite the symmetrical AWD and the dealership and Subaru could not find anything wrong and did not give a satisfactory explanation. This is my second Subaru after I tradein my 2015 Subaru Impreza which I felt was a better car in snow and never fishtailed. I get a decent mileage on Legacy averaging about 32 which is comparably good considering the all wheel drive.

Mine
I've had my Subaru for 5 years now. Feel like I Know all the perks to the car but don't. Every once in a while I learn something new about it. I doubted buying the car in the beginning but found I'm glad I did. I wouldn't have gone places in the last 5 years that I went to out of town. I'm retired and depended on my husband for all directions for travel. I'm very confident in my travels now. Love the car. I've had no problems with it at all. I do all the oil changes and have check up before a trip. Great car.
