2000 Legacy Test Drive

by jpcjpc
Feb 10 '00 - Updated May 04 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Excellent package for the price
Cons: limited colors, GT models could handle better, very long (184inches)

**UPDATE: My search for a car is complete! I ordered a Legacy GT Ltd in Black and after waiting 3 months, just received it. I'm very happy! Read on though, this review was written BEFORE I decided to buy this car!
PS: May 4th: I just picked up my...

Smooth and responsive

by DrMobots
Aug 02 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: safety, practicality, well designed
Cons: a little pricey, transmission sluggish at high speed

I know car rating is very subjective. I "upgraded" from a 1994 Escort hatchback, so I may overrate the Legacy a little despite attempts to stay objective.

A baby does not fit in a truck or 2 door hatchback safely nor conveniently, it...

Some Tips From a Legacy Outback Owner.

by wkwassoc
Dec 27 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: The Subaru Outback has Much Trunk Space and Gets You Around in all Seasons.
Cons: Best with Snow Tires & Steel Rims.

I live on top of a mountain in New Hampshire and require a 4-wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle just to get home. I have had a Chevy.Blazer, Toyota Tercel and since the Fall of 1995 have been driving a 1996 Subaru Legacy Outback. While the vehicle came...

great little car that can!

by friendly_jacek
Nov 06 '05 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Wagon (one of few available now), AWD, mostly bullet-proof drivetrain, great towing
Cons: Fuel economy is relatively poor (well, AWD). Dealerships are jokes down here in south.
The Bottom Line: Wery impressed by overall versality/utility and towing performance. If you like that, subaru may be your answer. If you have no use for AWD, skip subaru (MPG penalty).

OK, i will chime in on my car. It is a white legacy wagon, and still is beatiful even though not pristine anymore due to hard work. The other reviewers covered all the bases including the beaty of AWD and so. I will add that it is a great towing car. ...

Sporty AWD Sedan (Updated June 2004)

by UpNy99
Nov 08 '99 - Updated Jun 09 '04 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Good looks, value & All-Wheel-Drive
Cons: Narrow seats if your wide, adequate trunk...fits two golf bags+shoes+whatever but is not huge!
The Bottom Line: Have owned 4 Subie's and every one of them has been a rock-solid machine and we've gotten our money out each of them.

[ Updated: June 2004 ] Just passed 60K. on this puppy and it's still going strong. Besides the usual general maintenance, the only really big expense has been a major brake job at about 45K and new tires all around at 40K...had to replace the rotors, ...

Its a great car!!!

by digitalin
Jul 24 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great road feel, sticks to ground, good brakes.
Cons: Back could be bigger, not enough sound in the back, needs more power

Every time I get behind the wheel of my 2000 Legacy GT, I feel that i'm in a safe and reliable car. All wheel drive is the best drive a person can have. I live in the Northwest, it does rain a lot, and my Legacy stays true to its advertising and sticks...

The Legacy of The Outback

by Autumnroze
Jan 03 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Affordable, fun to drive
Cons: Outback is too inflated

Even though my family is only comprised of three people, I felt the appeal of a station wagon to be undeniable. The cargo room of a truck, with the ease and comfort of a car. Coupled with my entirely positive experience of Subaru's and its being the most...

Pros: SAFE, comfy, good gas mileage
Cons: NONE - THIS IS A GREAT CAR!
The Bottom Line: The bottom line is: Legacy saved my life! It keeps me safe in harsh winter conditions. The best car on the road. :)

Update: 12/02: I was involved in another accident and again the car was there to save me. This was also a front-impact accident, and after repairs, the car is running great again. Definitely recommend for safety reasons.

Update: 7/01: My...

A Consultant's View

by leafboy
Jan 24 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 3.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: good handling, comfort
Cons: no power, lack or cargo space

With 15 year experience in automobile consulting and sales, it is my opinion that the Subaru Legacy LX model automatic fully loaded is an all-weather automobile that is highly efficient for its job. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite have the power within...

I LOVE my Legacy Brighton

by CastroSFO
Sep 03 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Too German to be Japanese!
Cons: Brighton needs power windows and a cargo cover.

My beloved '97 VW Jetta GT was totaled and I hated the 2000 Jetta. I needed a car fast, and after four VWs I needed something new. I was really disappointed with everything I test drove and nearly gave up on anything from Japan or Korea. Then I saw the...

Jan 07 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: stylnig, handling, interior, almost everything
Cons: power is sluggish with 4 speed auto, so get the 5 speed!

Need a 4wd sports sedan? Can't afford that audi A6 or BMW 530i? That Audi A4 or BMW 325Xi too small for your tastes? Try a Subaru Legacy GT, or GT Limited on for size. That's right, a Subaru!

This car is beautifully detailed. The...

Legacy GT Limited

by rbothell
Mar 05 '02 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Styling, All-Wheel Drive, comfort, ergonomics
Cons: Could use more power, especially with the automatic
The Bottom Line: Its like buying a reliable toyota with AWD

The first thing that drew me to the Subaru was the fact that for a reasonable price, you could get a tested and proven STANDARD all wheel drive vehicle. Next was which model to buy since they all had standard awd. The legacy offered the most room, and...

Must read before purchase

by Lone
May 05 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 3.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Comfortable Seats
Cons: Automatic Transmission is reluctance to downshift.
The Bottom Line: This is one good alternative which you can get with less than $20000

I have bought this car a week ago for approximately the same price as a Honda Civic. I however do not think Subaru Legacy is a better car than Civic, I just don't like Civic that much, because everybody has one. I choose Legacy, because it makes me...
