Any thoughts on how far back I should go in Model Years? This will be my "bad weather" car and what is most important to me is: Heated Seats Heated Steering Wheel (do they offer this?) Leather Great Audio (how is the stock audio on a GT limited?) Is there a specific package that you'd all recommend? Were there any major fixes in 06 or 07 that would prevent you from recommending a used 05? Thanks for your recommendations.

Audio isn't really a strong point, you could get a MacIntosh stereo on VDC Outbacks, but not on a Legacy GT. 06 had some safety upgrades that improved side impact scores measurably. 07s got satellite radio as an option plus an aux input for an iPod. -juice

Replying to: ateixeira (Jan 18, 2007 1:00 pm) I've seen some pretty nice 05's 30-40K mileage range in the mid to upper teens. Seems like a fun car for the money with a fairly luxury interior. Exterior looks just so-so but that seems to be true of most Suburu's. They truly are wolfs in sheeps clothing... Any thoughts on reliability? Will I be making many visits to the Dealer? Do they use standard oil (every 3K miles) or synthetic? It's been nice visiting the BMW dealer once per year on my leased X3.

Replying to: vsroman (Jan 18, 2007 1:34 pm) Absolutely true. I used to see a Legacy and not ever really focus on it - now that I know what's under the hood, I think it's got a geat, understated look. |

Replying to: vsroman (Jan 18, 2007 1:34 pm) Subaru had gasket issues up until about MY2002, but not since. The turbo engines (EJ257) have been great. Other issues (wheel bearings on 02 and earlier Foresters and 01 and earlier Imprezas) didn't affect the Legacy. It's a pretty solid car. -juice |
