Sounds high for a manual wagon. Does this include rebates? These have been running from 1-2k.
 
I paid a tad over $27k for my GT LTD Auto sedan back in May. Invoice was $28.5, I got the dealer $1k under, then took the $500 rebate and 2.9 financing.
 
Yes, I miss the fold down seats in the sedan. My 99 LGT LTD had them. But I also have an Outback, so I was set on another sedan. Good Luck. Rob M.

Yes, this includes $1500 rebate, which precludes 1.9% financing.
 
Was the $27k you paid for your sedan out the door, or the vehicle price? The vehicle price I've gotten the dealer to is a couple hundred over $26k.

That's what I've been offered, but it's for last year's model...

I just received a price of $27,500 for the 2006 Legacy GT Limited Sedan with 5 speed in New York. This price includes the splash guard set, wheel locks, security system upgrade, armrest extension, auto dimming mirror with compass, all weather floormats, momo shift knob, and subwoofer/amplifier.
 
Total price after taxes etc is $29,900.
 
Not sure if I can get this price much lower. Any ideas? Thanks.

Did you check this number against Edmunds invoice? Are there any rebates on the 06? FWIW, I paid $27.5 for my 05 GT LTD Auto back in May. Rob M.

I checked the $27,500 against edmunds which shows a price of $29,228. Unless I am missing something, it appears the edmunds price is before tax and tags in which case my price of $29,900 with all options installed, taxes, etc. seems reasonable.
 
Rob- is $27,5 what you paid with options and tax? Thanks for the info.
 
BTW, the incentives being offered right now are some low financing rates and $1,000 off.

If I were the only one driving the car I would have purchased an Impreza wagon. My husband needs to fit in the car so I purchased a Legacy sedan. I loved the looks of the sedan but not the wagon. Sometimes, I do regret my choice because
I'm limited to what I can put in my car. For me it was all about loving my ride.

Why I chose Legacy over its competitors by era174

Hello from Canada.
I'm going to buy a 2006 Subaru Legacy 2.5i wagon this weekend.
I've done my homework for more than a month. The reasons I chose it instead of its competitors are:
 
1) all wheel drive :
I got two near-accident experiences with front wheel drive cars in winter.
 
2) mid-size station wagon :
no more Jetta wagons in 2006. that's too bad. VW Canada is selling 2005 leftover models only.
2006 Passat wagons (V6, 4Motion) will be too expensive (not on the market yet)
I almost decided to buy a 2006 Toyota Matrix (actually small-size), but Toyota Canada refuses to add side airbags and curtain airbags as options; I'm not talking about standard, but OPTIONS!! Bye, Toyota.
 
3) good standard equipment
Even the lowest 2.5i has 6 airbags (kudos to Subaru, Honda and Hyundai (Sonata)), many power-related options, cruise control, air conditioning, cd player, and surprisingly HEATED front seats (in Canada). Toyota Canada refuses again to add 6 airbags an an option for Camry SE whose MSRP is almost the same as Legacy 2.5i.
 
4) IIHS report on INJURY, COLLISION & THEFT LOSSES (2002-2004 models)
click here
Legacy/Outback 4WD has a very good rating in the all mid-size category.
 
5) good reliability and resale value
 
6) temptation to buy 2006 Honda CRV and 2006 Toyota Rav4?
2006 Toyota Rav4 will be a hot seller this winter considering all the media reports (& hype). Even though the IIHS report used its old models, its rating is very poor. So is Honda CR-V's. And CR-V still has to solve the PPTR problem. Of course those two mini SUVs generate much MORE NOISE than Legacy.
 
6) Final thought:
I NEVER dreamed of buying a SUBARU car in my whole life. But, Toyota and Honda fail to meet all my requirements within my budget. Passat wagon with 4Motion is an alternative but it'll be way too expensive for me. I'll post more info on my Legacy later. Thanks for all the posts you put on this wonderful web site!

Were you unable to accelerate?
