Thanks for the review! Sounds like the Outback should stay at the top of my "Wanted" list.
 
Let us know if you get a crack at a six-speed manual trans version.

some of the dealers already have a demo vehicle of both legacy and outback with them . you should check them.
 
i had a chance to see them yesterday.
 
my personal toughts on legacy..
 
      the front appears to be from infiniti g37 and the back appears to be from hyundai sonata
 
and the outback appears to be like a new generation of crossovers, positioned between a car and a crossover.it's not a wagon anymore.
 
may be we can call it as a tall wagon
 
and guess what i personally liked the outback more than the legacy

It does almost seem more like a big 5 door. The Impreza went even further in that direction, though. I like wagons, though.
 
Glad to hear the de-icer was not cut, but how 'bout some folding mirrors?
 
I guess that's the insurance companies' concern. Well, not really, the deductible will have to be paid each time you hit anything.

Towing by rsholland

I also found out that towing is the same as last year (2700/3000 for H4/H6), which is good; not great but good, as I was hoping for an increase to 3500 with the H6 Outback. According to the owner's manual, the Legacy is limited to 1000 pounds, although an SOA rep over at NASIOC has said the Legacy is not rated for towing.
 
Earlier reports had the towing at 2400 across the board, but that was incorrect.

Nice to see improvements, but in this month's C&D Comparo of small luxury crossovers, the Volvo was the lowest and it offered 3300 lbs. Most offer 3500 lbs towing, and Subaru really ought to match that, especially with the H6.

...none have arrived in my area just yet, but there is an event going on next week which supposed to be a reveal (for those who don't follow the industry I suppose) of the '10 Legacy and Outback. I want to go, but finding the time and probably not being able to drive anything means that I'll probably pass.

First Impression by invest

A gold Legacy arrived at a local dealership this week and my initial impressions are as follows:
 
Exterior is clunkier (technical term) than it appears in photos and lacks the design elements of the G37 or even the Mazda 6. Interior is attractive, however the fake wood looks very cheap and plastic. The seats are extremely comfortable ( best in class).
 
That said, I think the overall appearance is better than the model it replaces and i look forward to the test drive. I also believe the car will look better in darker colors.

Wow, the CVT kills the manual by a whopping 4mpg.
