2000 Subaru Outback consumer reviews

I purchased my 2000 Outback Limited sedan new September 1999 when the 2000 just came out. I still own it and hope I never have to replace it! It has been the best car! With currently 126,000 miles (yes that low as I live in a smallish town) and it’s my commuter. I heard about the engine gasket right after I bought it so I replaced it at 50k miles. It’s only needed age related fixes; fuel pump, catalytic converter, nothing major. Drives excellent in the snow and ice, very peppy through the mountains. All electronics work great (heated seats, wiper heated, side mirrors heated, etc. CD and cassette player still works too! Love my car!!

Family has had this car for 24 years and have grown extremely attached to it. Amazing car, 10/10 would recommend although the acceleration from 0-60 is basically non existent and it does make weird noises all the time

I bought this car October 2022 with 124,000 miles on it. I’ve put 16,000 miles on it and it has always gotten me home wether it be from a 4 hour roadtrip, 2 drive into the desert, or a 10 min drive to a coffee shop. I have had to put some money into it, in the shop currently for a transmission overheating condition, but this is easily my favorite car I’ve owned. The ride is extremely comfortable, handling is great, visibility is insane, engine has enough power to comfortably escort you up any grade you may come across. This car has taken me places my 2008 dodge ram never got me, You never realize how nice AWD is before you use it.

The car handles snow like a dream, has plenty of power for it's size. I've even used it to pull other vehicles around my lot with ease. Plenty of room inside to load the vehicle with anything needed. The seats come down as well to make the back flat up to the front seats. Very comfortable and this and similar Subarus that I own have had excellent reliability, especially when compared to other vehicles with comparable mileage, age, etc. These cars tested well in crash safety tests and have a great reputation for a reason. I'll still take my 2000 Outback over most modern cars in terms of reliability, safety, performance, and general usability.

Unbelievably, when I purchased a used Subaru Outback 2000 years, I surprised its power and engine .All parts is still working . Audio was designed nice. Especially AWD is good .

absolutely the most reliable,versitale sure footed,fun,dependable,easy to maintain,efficent,and safe cars on the road..i joke that it could clime a tree if u could get the wheels /tires on it.in short,very good cars.,indeed.

I think that any Subaru between 1997 and 2002 is well worth buying used at the price they are asking. As long as mileage is below 200,000. I see a lot of people having issues. Head gaskets for instance. I don't have those issues

absolutely loved this car - AWD for mountain driving and snow and ice was top of the line - was very functional and perfect for carrying my real estate clients to look at remote properties

The vehicle is in nice shape for the year. Drives and runs out well for a 2000 vehicle. Paint is nice and looks real clean

My car did everything I asked of her, through 3 burning man's and 5 moves, it was incredible how much you could actually store in it. Comfortable and great for long trips.
