Comments on Subaru Legacy?

[jaymd]

Hi guys. Galing lang ako sa MI and i got to check out the new subaru impreza wrx, sti and legacy. Any thoughts or opinions sa legacy wagon? Gusto ko sana nun wrx kaso sbi ni misis ganda dn daw yun legacy lalo na may baby na kami at medyo madami na bagahe pag umaalis kami. Thanks!

Legacy wagon. Yan din gusto ng misis ko nung una. Mabait ako kaya siya yung inuna namin i-test drive.

OK naman siya. The ride and room were good, though not excellent. The speed was acceptable for an AT 2.0 -- the sport shift lets you 'work' the gears in case you need more oomph. Kung mostly city driving with occasional formal affairs or provincial trips, I'd say it's a good buy.

Pero sa province kami nakatira eh. Kaya mostly hiway driving. Plus, when we rode the Forester, we thought that its ride was even better! So at the cost of a bit more gas money and a bit less rear leg room, nag FXT na kami. Never pa ako nai-insecure kahit nalulusutan.

Sabi nga nun SA i-test drive ko nga. Baka after holy week na cguro. nagustuhan ko din naman lalo na may moonroof na kasama yun MY08 wala daw kasi yun last year. Ganda din white the FXT na may STI accessories pero mahal! Nakakuha ka ng discount sa FXT mo? Tsaka sabi nun SA they dont keep stocks nun legacy kaya paisa isa lang dw dating minsan 3 months daw waiting time. Thanks!

That's good advice bro. Si Neil yung SA namin nung isa pang taga tsikot diyan eh. Yung isa naman dito parang sa model yata umorder ng unit. hehehe.

Yes, wala ngang moonroof yung Legacy last year! Actually, konti lang naman yung price difference nung FXT at Legacy -- 75-100 lang yata.

Mas refined, conservative, at formal yung dating ng Legacy. Mas matipid pa daw ng konti. So kung mostly city ka with several formal affairs and less often long drives methinks this is for you.

Mas go-anywhere at load-more yung FXT kaya lang mala-Revo ang looks at mahirap ang ingress at egress sa likod. Pero galing talaga nung ride nung FXT, lalo nung malambot pa ang gulong nung bago. Ngayon, medyo matigas ng konti pero IMHO, comparable pa din sa lumang accord namin. If long drives are your thing, this is the car for you!

My cousins' 3.5 year old 2.0X has no 'tiriks' pero may pinalitan na na 2 bushing after warranty (ginawa na ng MI part of routine service) -- mura lang naman daw.

Update ko kayo kung makuha ko na yun legacy Sa features naman parang sulit na para sa price nya since may baby na ko na impress ako sa crast test ratings and dami airbags hanggang likod. Yun lang maliit makina pero d naman na ko magkikipagkarera Pati yun gauges nya ala wrx na din nag sweep pag on mo. Wala dn pala sya stability control. Dont know kung meron yun model last year. BTW hanggang kailan pa kaya yun model na ganito? Bka next year palitan na? KUn ganon baka mag FXT na lang ako hehe. Nakita ko kasi yun 2009 FXT malaki pero mas maganda yun model ngayon. Thanks!

yup, mas maganda yung latest na FXT. Lalabas na rin diesel model nun so you might wanna wait for that sweeter one. hehe
