Mazda6 2.3L or Subaru Legacy 2.0L

[e2fee]

2.3L 164 hp *6500 rpm vs. 2.0L 165 hp *6800 rpm (Subaru more efficient?).

21.0 kg-m *4000 rpm vs. 19.1 kg-m *3200 rpm.

Dimensions, wheelbase, tread almost the same (though Mazda ~50 mm wider).

1442 kg vs. 1405 kg.

Same tire size 215/45R17.

P1,395,000 vs. P1,495,000.

I assume the P100K difference is mainly for the Subaru's full-time 4WD.

It's not the 250 hp Legacy 2.5 GT, but then neither is the Mazda the 274 hp Mazdaspeed6.

based on interior i would go for the mazda. but u cant beat 4wd though. magastos lang sa gas if full time i think.

Sa Subie ako.... iba pa rin ang full time all wheel drive / 4-whhel drive driving... mas confident at magiging agresibo ka kahit sa slippery roads at corners...

pasensya na biased kasi ako kasi may 3-dr rav4 kami e... = )

[nugundam93]

suby vote ko.

pero mas pogi kasi mazda 6 eh...

[yuichi]

legacy kasi subaru.....more prestigious.

kahit interior at exterior looks legacy pa rin, just love that frameless window.

mazda6...pero kung may subaru 2.5GT at Mazdaspeed6 na pagpipilian sa MAZDA pa rin ako...fogi eh fafa

[carlocaraddict]

hmmmm....maka test drive nga ng Subaru Legacy. hheheehhe cant judge yet kasi di pa ako nakadrive ng Legacy.

I like the Subie, medyo kinabahan lang ako when I read how horrific Car and Driver's long term test of the Legacy sedan turned out. Almost everything that could go wrong, went wrong.

if you are concerned about the SRS Airbag (see the Airbag thread), then go with Subaru. Why? According to Subaru slogan............

:evillaugh

Mazda6 is beautiful indeed, but I'd opt for the beauty of all-wheel-drive. (sana lang wag masira after 10,000miles gaya ng C&D test...hahaha
