2005 Subaru Legacy GT Review 

Of course the back seats are cramped when you have the front seats back all the way. Can't really hide that man.

Just bought my 2005 Subaru Legacy GT Wagon today! 128k miles on it. Hoping that it will give me lots more. Love it so far

this guy really said shifter and then panned down to that alien object

Hey man, good video, liked your philosophical approach to how the car felt to you, anyway keep it up buddy!

Bought a 2005 Limited Edition GT wagon a couple weeks ago, has 41,000 miles, shame you couldn't review the sunroof, the factory sunroof is large, my daughter loves it in the back seat, but yah her legs are a little cramped even. Car is quick and fun. Alignment should be checked regularly, they eat up oil like no other but it's normal for them.

Good review mate, I have the same 5 speed in my H6 Outback and couldn't be happier with it, as a daily, just leave it in auto but if you want to have a bit of fun, put it in sports mode and it's great and in sports mode it has great engine braking, It might not be everyone's cup of tea but I find it great.

Spot on review. I love my ‘05 OBXT, practical, reliable and quick!

As the owner of a 2004 WRX I know the reason as to why there's not a whole lot of room in the back. It's because Subaru know damn well that's nobody is gonna be back there let alone the passenger seat. I get lucky to have passengers in my car lol

Owning a one owner, lightly (professionally) modified 05 LGT wagon for 8 years... I don’t know if certainty is a good word for the car. Still love it undoubtedly though!

i have a 2006 Gt but in sedan , and its quite well balanced and few bolt on mods :)

the hollow squad sticker on the back though

I love the facelift model with better interior and the paddle shifters, even in sedan form there is plenty of space

One of the big differences between the GT and the L is the dual-piston front brakes, at least for the 3rd gen Legacy like I have.

I'm not sure if you removed it for the review, but there is an engine cover missing in the video. It isn't just there for decoration. The cover directs the air from the hood scoop into the intercooler. I've had one of these for several years. The only problems that I've had with it were failed rear wheel bearings and the right side valve cover leaking. These seem to be common problems. I don't feel that they are higher maintenance than other cars, especially turbo cars. Alignment issues are most likely caused by the lowering springs. The paint on my hood scoop blistered and peeled. I think this was because I put off fixing the valve cover leak for a while. The rear cupholder is fragile. I need to replace mine again. I think these were rushed to production because there were a few details that they didn't quite get right in the earlier cars. The biggest one that comes to mind is the lack of access to the cabin air filter. Their immediate fix for that was joke. They cut out an access hole in the back of the glove box and screwed a piece of cloth over the hole. Later cars got a redesigned glove box with a removable section, which can be retrofit into the earlier cars. Later cars also got some other improvements like an overhead sunglass holder similar to what was on the previous generation and an armrest that can raise and lower. These can both be retrofit into earlier cars. It looks like the seats were changed on that car. I believe leather seats and sunroof were specific to the Limited model, but that car has an aftermarket sunrooof.

You had the front seats moged too far back. Since you felt fine in the back of later sedan then it would be indentical in the wagon. Its just that seats were adjusted stupidly far back in this one.

Bro, what about the fuel consumption ?

Automatic cars should still get respect I’m glad this one did

Not a bad review. I have an 08 LGT sedan with some mods. Kind of disagree about the car not begging for more power mods... I caught the bug instantly but now I'm real good with how it drives at > 300 awhp. Sometimes I wish it were the wagon, but I can still throw 4 pairs of skis through the middle seat so it's nice having an arguably classier look without the massive space. Always fun to see people still liking these cars.

i find it so weird that you guys mix the Gen 4 headlights with the gen 4.5 taillights :/ why not just go full gen 4.5, front bumper, headlights, fenders and even the trunk.

What’s thos mags called?

Wow!! Your review was awesome! You deserve more subscribers.

Looks just like our 2004 Outback with a street suspension instead of the AWD suspension.

I own a lot of Subaru’s. 01 outback H6. 250k. 06 H6 outback. 115k never had a single reliability issue. The H6 do have 1 issue I need to replace cv boots every 100k and along with that on the 06 is control arms. Again these can be done every 100k and then u good for another 100k. And yes. My cars see 160 mph all the time. They are ridden hard.

Intro music?

I thought the 2004 liberty gt has 2.0 turbo? The one I have

Man u a big boi with the seat pushed all the way back talking about its cramped back there

Have a Subaru GT Wagon for general driving / daily, one thing to note is the turbo's on these cars are pretty garbage and will fail after 150-200k and like all Subaru's, some of them are prone to head gasket issues. They can have pretty electrical problems too.

I dont know why I watched this u make me upset

small tight backseats but not gonna say how tall you are?

I'm looking at getting a 2005 Subaru legacy sedan with 170k Miles on it is that good?

I daily an earlier legacy wagon... I kinda hate it, but it's manual, and we straight-piped it so it sounds a bit better, and nobody tries to steal it - which is really the only requirement for a daily!

the backseats might feel cramped maybe cuz you're a thicc boi, amirite?

Is that the stock steering wheel?

HOLLOWSQUAAAAAAD

How long do the turbos usually last?

You said 5 speed automatic and thats when I quit.

Its leviosah, not leviosuh

Subaru’s aren’t reliable? What are you smoking?!

When you're 350+ no wonder the back seats are cramped

Its a boxer plz call it a boxer
