Is the 2012 Subaru Legacy a good car?
Now in its third year since a total redesign, the 2012 Subaru Legacy remains an appealing alternative to category stalwarts like the Accord and Camry. And buyers have taken note, with significantly increased sales year over year.
How big are the wheels on a Subaru Legacy?
The 2.5i Premium adds an automatic transmission and 17-inch wheels, while both 2.5i and 3.6R Premium models include a 10-way power driver’s seat, leather-wrapped steering wheel, and 6-speaker audio with Bluetooth, USB and iPod connectivity.
Which is better Subaru Legacy 2.5R or 3.6R?
The 3.6R is, as expected, better at moving the Legacy, though there’s a hint of vibration at idle. The 265-horsepower turbocharged Legacy 2.5GT is the real performer, with minimal turbo lag and a nice flat torque curve. But buyers who want an automatic transmission will have to choose the 3.6R or shop elsewhere.

What kind of engine does the 2013 Subaru Legacy have?
While the 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder engines in the 2013 Subaru Legacy offer differing acceleration, the Legacy 2.5i, and 3.6R share the same suspension, meaning the ride and handling are fairly consistent regardless of model. We found the Legacy’s ride to be exceptionally smooth and its cabin sufficiently quiet.
