  Terrific Value for Luxury Sedan - 2005 Subaru Legacy
  By Subie Do - June 20 - 10:23 pm

  This is our fourth Subaru. We purchased this one for its new design, especially the interior and its many appointments and options. Subaru has always had an unbeatable AWD system, and this one is no different. Ive never felt more comfortable driving in poor weather conditions than in this car. Our only complaint would be the lower powered motor makes the transmission jump down too frequently. But using "sport shift" takes care of that. Audio system is excellent, but wed love to be able to plug in our iPods!

  Awesome Car! - 2005 Subaru Legacy
  By Kayleigh - June 19 - 8:06 am

  I had been eyeing this car up for almost a year before I decided to buy it. You dont see many of them on the road because Subaru isnt exactly a household name, but Im glad theyve kept this car a secret. I put over 500 miles on the car in the first week of ownership because it is so fun to drive. I feel bad leaving it in the garage. It begs to be driven!

  Everyone should own this car! - 2005 Subaru Legacy
  By Zac - April 26 - 7:46 am

  My wife and I have owned this vehicle for just about 7 months and were enjoying every mile in it. The quality of the interior is impeccable and so well designed in terms of ergonomics. Everything seems to be in its natural location. The endless supply of torque power this car has to offer is overwhelming and will make anybody feel confident behind the wheel. The confidence doesnt only come from the immense amount of power, but it comes from the symmetrical AWD system. I just cant say enough about this car it was truly one of the best decisions we made. It was worth the wait. Hey it wasnt Car of the Year in Japan twice for nothing. Think of the competition it had to beat!

  BMW Performance at Half the Price - 2005 Subaru Legacy
  By Bearfoot - April 15 - 12:56 am

  The 2.5 GT autostick is a hoot to drive! Plenty of power on tap at any speed and confident handling. Turbo lag could be reduced. Car is comfortable for long (500 mile) trips and I have a bad back. Others considered: Infinity g35X, BMW 330ix, & Audi A4 Quattro. The 2.5 GT has all of the comfort and safety figures at a far lower cost. Build quality is excellent. The doors close with a reassuring thump. Take comparitive test drives, check your wallet and youll by the Legacy GT

  Buy it--Best Bang For Your Buck - 2005 Subaru Legacy
  By Scubie WoW - March 28 - 10:43 pm

  Folks, Listen I have gone on so many test drives, BMW, Acura, Honda, Volvo, Mazda just to name a few. And the Subaru is "The Best Bang for your Buck". Buy it. Dont waste your money or time with the other dealers. Gas Mileage is the topic of the year and Im getting 26 MPG in the city and I live in Houston. Ill say it again---BUY the Subaru Legacy!!!

  New to me Subie - 2005 Subaru Legacy
  By Ron - March 7 - 9:03 am

  I just bought my 05 Legacy GT Limited used. So far it is an amazing car. Its much more fun to drive than my previous car (98 Honda Accord 4cyl). The AWD really inspires confidence when taking corners and all-around driving.

  The Good the Bad and the Ugly - 2005 Subaru Legacy
  By george - February 24 - 2:33 pm

  Picked up this 05 Subaru in March. The good: performance, looks, handling, utility. The bad: gas mileage, low ground clearance, turbo lag or engine revving in automatic. The ugly: For over 2 weeks it was in for a rattle behind dash, which was then entirely removed, and waited for new foam piece. The back for check engine light twice. Have the car back now for 1 week and hope nothing else goes wrong. This is my second Subie because I think I got a good price since last years model, and was less than the Audi A3 or A4 with awd. Performance is good though gas mileage stinks. And I dont like the way the auto transmission revs then shifts. I find myself using the paddle buttons or sport-shift.

  I love this car! - 2005 Subaru Legacy
  By Combat Camera - January 29 - 6:43 pm

  I have had my Subaru Legacy GT sedan for about a month now and am extremely impressed with the car. The turbo kicks in at about 3000 rpm and launches the car like a rocket. I am also enjoying the handling of the all wheel drive and suspension system. I would highly recomend this car to those who are in love with sports cars, but need something more practical. This car will give you everything you want.
