Admittedly, the Legacy is a small-ish vehicle. My back seat passengers report being comfortable, but snug. see full Subaru Legacy review |

The acceleration is very good compared to other cars costing about the same. Getting on the freeway is very entertaining. I like the sound of the turbo whistle. see full Subaru Legacy review |

AWD handling. Engine was a tad underpowered, but was responsive. Not a fan of the shiftable auto transmission, which was slow to respond. see full Subaru Legacy review |

Ye olde 4 speed transmission is slow to react and has a hard time choosing the right gear. Shifts are often abrubt and unexpected. Engine runs out of steam at around 35mph. see full Subaru Legacy review |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
The shifter was notchy (possibly because it was a new car) and the gearing was such that the car was loud on the highway. see full Subaru Legacy review |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Excellent engine and automatic transmission. I think better calibration of the automatics trans would result better sudden acceleration and overall driving experience. see full Subaru Legacy review |
