Best car I?ve ever owned

This vehicle is reliable and quick. More space than a wrx but the same performance. Interior styling and finish is nicely done

A Car So Great Im Buying Another!

Best vehicle I?ve ever driven! I?ve been driving my 05 legacy for 10 years now and after 148k of very reliable miles and many fun trips in inclement weather its time I pass it along to my 17 year old (new driver) nephew! I couldn?t think of a safer more reliable vehicle for him! I think the car will EASILY get to 200k miles, and maybe even 250k if he continues to maintain it right (oil changes, etc.)! I am buying a new (slightly used) Subaru Legacy with all the bells and whistles and I can?t wakt to spend my next 150k miles in it! My niece just turned 7 and my 2014 Legacy will be handed down to her in abt a decade!

Good car if serviced right.

The car I own is in Panama central America and one dealer that never has parts and lacks knowledge of the the car.

Good Car

Good car. Bought used with 162k miles and besides the suspension being worn and the fact there was practically no antifreeze in the radiator when I drove the car Home, it was a pleasant drive.
