Loving my 2024 Subaru Legacy Limited so far. I've had mine for around 6 months and it's been a champ up here in South Dakota during winters with heavy snow and spring with heavy rain. I was coming from a 2016 Honda Accord (which is an amazing car that lasted me through college) and I can really notice the difference between that and my Subaru Legacy. My parents have an old 2004 Outback that's still running very well to this day with over 370,000 miles (we did install a newer MLS head gasket kit in it to prevent any potential head gasket issues a long time ago). I decided to go back to Subaru after my Accord lost traction one night while driving home in light snow even with newer winter tires. Couldn't be happier with my purchase. It hasn't given me any issues and driving through heavier snow/rain is a breeze. I was debating between the Legacy, Crosstrek, and Forester because the Outback was too expensive with the additional markups, and I'm glad I went with the Legacy because I prefer this form factor after getting used to driving my older Accord. I'm looking forward to see how my Subaru Legacy performs during the summer and I hope it lasts me as long as my parents' old Outback.
Most thorough car review I’ve seen. Much appreciated!
This video is for people who literally just bought 1 and wanna learn every single button and features about this car! Thank you so much! I needed this lol
Haha, I’m glad the video could help
Now my perfect car is right here, right now.
We just got a 2024 Legacy Sport Cosmic Blue. That color is beautiful and much better in person that any camera can show. Had it for about 3 weeks and we love it.
Exactly. The color doesn’t pick up on camera. It’s a great color in person
You're right - Subaru's blue is gorgeous.
I'm glad that You split the video for part engine, interior etc. Greetings
Here is my 5K mile review of the 2024 Subaru Legacy Premium (without the OP15 package):
What I like:
Excellent gas mileage especially on the highway, I get 40+ with cruise control. AWD handles amazingly on dirt roads. After the 1500 mile break in the cars power seemed to increase and acceleration was better for passing (My 0-60 is better than 8 seconds after the break in). The CVT transmission seems better than other CVTs I have driven, it acts very much like a true automatic after the 1500 mile break in (but not before - consider this when test driving). Very spacious and comfortable on long distance driving even for large adults in the backseat. There are no blind spots and visibility is excellent (auto-blind spot detection isn't needed). Spacious trunk, and storage between front seats is large. Heated seats work great. Driver assist, lane assist, and cruise control works great for out of town driving and it senses cars ahead and does a great job of maintaining speed and distance. The steering wheel has a nice feel. The auxiliary audio jack allows the best audio quality. Both type A&C USB charging. Bluetooth pairing is painless. Dual climate control works great for hot and cold days. The engine is well thought out and gives easy access for regular maintenance for DIY. The cloth seats seem better quality than other brands I tested. The passenger side above the glovebox ledge is great for small item storage. Unlike several competitors it has rear A/C vents and USB A&C charging. Car cameras are not on the bumper which I think makes more sense for long term maintenance. Tight steering with good handling around winding roads. I like the integrated screen that is vertical (I thought I would not like it but in practice it is better). Auto-headlights work great. We paid less than $30K with tax/tag/title, plus the payments are less than $500. The dealership is clean, friendly, and organized. Lastly, Subaru uses the same engines and drivetrains on all their cars which means parts will be easy to get and in some cases are interchangeable. This is a no nonsense car that I expect to get 300K miles from with regular maintenance.
What I dislike:
Touch screen can be laggy. Backup camera doesn't use the whole screen. Apple Carplay is hit or miss (hopefully this will be updated). I hate auto engine cutoff and wish this could be permanently turned off. Making outbound phone calls using the hands free option has yet to work as it has yet to recognize my iPhones contacts list - my 2012 Dodge Challenger's Uconnect system is better (update or user error?). The base stereo is anemic - if this is important to you get the upgraded stereo. When using the driver assist be sure to turn it off when slowing down behind someone who is turning - when close behind it cannot tell the difference between a turn and a car coming to a stop and it will slam on the brakes which can be dangerous if someone is close behind you. AWD means you're buying all four tires every time, but usually do this anyway. But the WORST THING! The seatbelt warning is OBNOXIOUS - my house has a gate and my driveway is 150 yards into my property and this warning has TWO levels of loudness that mutes the radio. I hate that I have to listen to this for the 30 seconds it takes me to park on my own driveway after getting out of the car to open the gate. My 2012 Challenger will not give the warning until you are going faster than 10-15 mph. The Legacy warning happens as soon as you have it in drive with no seatbelt.
This 5k review was very helpful,thank you.
I watched another reviewer on youtube who said he really liked the premium.
He commented his dislikes were stiff seats and not much comfort in the tush area.
I would like something for long trips and his reviews are usually pretty reliable.
I know comfort is subjective,wondering if you noticed either of the issues he mentioned.
@@bobb470 I like the seats and havent noticed that they were stiff. I wish it had memory settings, but I guess you can't have it all. The seats are much better than my 2012 Dodge Challenger. I hope that helps.
Great video! Thank you!
🙏🏼
Excellent review! Can you add a full-size spare?
We bought a new car last year. The older man in me wanted a legacy. The Mrs wanted something a little smaller. Too bad I really like the car.
Thanks for another quality review.
What did you end up getting?
@@703Speed she liked the Civic ST. Got her a white one.
I'm in a similar world :P Wife wants a CX-5, I'm looking at the Crosstrek. That being said, those bose speakers in the CX-5 are calling to me...
@@Phiz787 My mom has a 2020 Miata RF GT with the Bose.. It is one of the best sounding systems I've heard in a vehicle.. I was shocked
The Harman Kardan sound system is available as part of an option package on the Limited model. That option package includes other great items and is well worth it.
It's standard with the Limited, Sport, & Touring
I have a premium without the Harman Kardan, and I wish I had. The stock stereo is anemic.
Still my dream sedan I wanting to buy one.
Loved your video one of the best in my opinion. To me if I choose I will go for the 2.4 turbo, in certain situations those extra horsepower can save your life.
Can you do the 2023 VW Jetta sport manual? I enjoy your videos very informative!
Thank you! Let me see what I can put together
I actually get a bit better than the stated 29mpg in my '17 Legacy.
They used to offer the HK stereo upgrade on the Premium trim of certain models. They probably want you to upgrade to the Limited or higher trim 😅
I want a 2021+ touring xt so bad! Hopefully i get one soon 😂
You got it
I just got a limited in this color
10 years ago Premium trim level was around $25-$26K. Nice car overall, just wish styling was better
Inflation. Lol
This is the best price proposition for this capable and solid driving all-weather sedan except swap the option package to OP 13 to snag the BSM/RCTA, Keyless Access/Push Button Start and fog lights for $1000. No need for a sunroof or NAV in this day and age.
Well i lucked out and got a premium with OP 13 AND 15, GOT SUN ROOF AND NAV WITH BSM...I LOVE IT
Subaru has a lot of tweaks to just dominate various spaces.
Return the Hatchback WRX (or put the WRX engine in a Crosstrek)
Return the manual to the Crosstrek
Speaker Upgrades available from any trim level
Physical Volume and Climate control knobs
Yup, they would kill the game if they did just 2 of the things you listed!
Just bought one in this exact color and the moonroof added....does the premium have wireless charging??
I don’t believe so
I was pricing a Legacy online. Wireless charging was a factory installed option. Maybe it’s available as a dealer installed option.
I just bought one. Sleeper sedan. I got it OTD for under $30K. It is a practical car for rural drivers who need that gas mileage and reliability.
How many miles per tank?
@@villafontananorte It has a large 18.5 gallon tank and I am averaging about 29 miles per gallon. So about 530 miles. It would be far more outside of the city. I easily get 35-40 mpg on the highway.
Awsome deal! Was this the premium trim you got for under $30K? any added packages?
@@Focus12345 It was a base Premium without the sunroof. I got lucky because a storm hit the dealership and this brand new car had a dent in passenger door. I used that to negotiate. They fixed the door and I got it below MSRP. =)
I wish it was a Royal Blue color
💯💯 Subaru it's one of da best sedan
Really nice car but will the direct injection lead to major Maintenace issues @ around 50k miles with intake valve carbon buildup?
20:04 not the taco 😂
Lol
no heated steering wheel?
No
yes
no, you are right.
I believe only in Canada…..not sure why.
So uhh… where’s the Altima for comparison?
It is just to slow.
Each and every one of you guys "is" would be correct. Grammar nerd!
