First time Subaru owner here and I'm glad I made the switch from Honda. After owning my previous car for over 12 years, which was a Honda Civic, I was shocked that I ran into electrical issues at only 93K miles!! Plus, after babying my car, hand washing/waxing for the lifetime of this vehicle the paint started chipping, well I'm done with Honda. Adios! I wanted to try Subaru and purchased my first one, a standard 2019 Legacy a few weeks ago. I'm extremely impressed with this vehicle, not only the safety options that came standard, but the comfort and pleasure of driving this car. It is a very smooth ride, the interior is very spacious, so far fantastic gas mileage (I'm only at a 1/2 tank and have 240 miles - city driving too, no interstate) and I love the backup camera. I have not driven in snow yet, but I'm looking forward to trying the AWD. The only thing I really dislike are the side view mirrors and the goofy directional joystick, awfully cheap and very hard to maneuver. The side mirrors are odd looking too which it makes it difficult to see. Plus, I wish they folded up!!! I have a very narrow garage and this just fits. If the mirrors folded up it would make it so much easier to get in my garage. This is the only thing I dislike about this car. So, with all the features that come standard, great gas mileage, AWD!!! for the value of this car, you just can not beat it!! Don't hesitate to buy this car, you will love it (besides the side view mirrors...)

I originally wrote a decent review of my 2016 Legacy 3.6R. Now I am filled with regret about buying this car. It has had several warranty repairs, including a new battery, and now just three months after the warranty expired, it is sitting dead in the street. The local dealers basically told me to pound sand. In addition to the above issue, the voice recognition has not worked properly in more than a year, despite a dealer reset, the lights behind the letters on the gear shift are out, and the paint has chips in it. Let's not forget the hail storm: Wife's Toyota was fine, as was neighbors' Fords, Hondas, and Toyotas. I am not exaggerating when I say my Legacy looked like a golf ball; having incurred $5,000 in body damage. To think, my wife didn't want me to buy a Chevy Malibu because she was concerned about the quality.

I've wanted a subaru for over 15 years. I've had almost everything from Honda, Nissan, Toyota, and a dodge. I liked them, but always liked the Subaru. Broke down last year and bought a 2019 subaru legacy sport. I AM HOOKED!! UPDATE: One year later, still could not be happier with my 2019 legacy sport. My next car will be another Subaru. (Either legacy or outback) It’s 2022 now & still loving my Subaru Legacy!

My 2nd 2019 Subaru Legacy

This is my 2nd 2019 Subaru Legacy. My first one actually got bought back with a lemon law claim. I loved my first one so much and was very disappointed when it was bought back from Subaru. I chalked it up to just bad luck of the draw. I had purchased another car in the meantime and was not 100% happy with it. I found myself admiring other 6th generation Legacy's on the road and not enjoying the car I had at the time, so I decided to try and find a CPO one and sold the car I purchased in-between. I could not be happier with my decision. My first model was a Premium trim and this new one is a Limited trim with the navigation and sunroof package. The car is as nice and solid as I remember it being. The Limited trim is near-luxury and the Harmon Kardon sound system is such a nice upgrade. I love the understated, handsome appearance of the car and the comfort of the seats. Long rides in this car are so much easier on my lower back due to how supportive yet soft the seats are. It was a bit of a twisted road to get here, but I am so glad I decided to make the4 decision to purchase another 2019 Legacy. I have faith this car will be there to serve me for the next 10+ years!

I bought my new 2019 Subaru Legacy Premium about 6 months ago. I have to many issues to list but will start. 1. The car weaves on the interstate (without lane keep assist on) feels like high winds 2. No control over radio when starting car (when driving you tend to turn the volume up to accommodate other sounds) when you restart the car, it comes on LOUD and no way to adjust it until the cars electronics are fully up) really embarrassing in a crowded place. Also when starting car and putting in reverse, radio becomes disabled. 3. Sometimes my "Eyesight" feature will disable while driving on a clear day. 4. No maintenance settings on car for oil change reminders, etc. for the past 20 years all my cars have had that feature. (I buy a new car most every year) 5. RESALE Value is Horrible - dropped 8,000 (35%) in 3 months 6. Now the AWD is top of the line, I've owned 3 other subaru's in the past (they were actually ahead of their time on features) I am just so disappointed in this car. Can't wait to get rid of it but right now I can NOT afford to take such a huge 8,000 to 10,000 loss on it. I do have more issues with this car but I think I got the point across. Thank you
