(As I've mentioned before, my father has an Outback and I've driven it on several occasions, including lenghty road trips. Apart from what is mentioned above it's a great car and fun to drive.) |
It's all these basic faults that pull it away from being an excellent sedan. I'd get this over the Camry anyday though, but it would be a toss between this and the Accord Euro. The Accord is so refined. Also, between the Legacy GT and the Golf GTI, it's a tough choice to make indeed.
What Subaru offers in the Legacy that is unique (and I truly love): frameless windows & its boxer engines.

I reckon it's a good move, too. And none of this 'aircraft fuselage' business that's infected some of the other cars in the lineup. The 'wings' on the badge alone are a fine testament to their aeronautical history; and it's a damn sight better than being bludgeoned with their 'brand identity', for those who don't know or care and are simply after a good looking car.

Oh yes, I believe you are referring to the Tribeca SUV and to a lesser extent, the Impreza... I was crossing my fingers that Subaru wouldn't do anything like that to the Legacy! My prayers were answered.
