Subaru Legacy Owners and/or Mechanics-- I am looking at the possibility of a new car purchase and am looking Subaru's direction. Esp interested in the wagon, but I have some questions:
- Which is the better engine--4 or 2 cyl?
- Which has the most problems and what might they be: for example, is the Legacy 4 still having head gasket problems & coolant leaks, or has the company cleaned that up in newer models? Does the company still require Subaru certified coolant for warranty?
- How long could I expect the engine to last? I am currently driving a Camry wagon with 227K and still going strong. Can Subaru match Toyota for reliability & durability? Does the 2.5i go the distance?
- Any opinions about body integrity? Thanks for your comments. I am new to your user group and any experienced owners' opinions will be most helpful.
