  1. Ignoring the expected TLDR forum trolling (looks some of you learned from NASIOC), I didn't want eyesight, but it came standard on the 2017 Legacy 3.6R Limited and they tossed in a 7 year warranty so I didn't balk too much.

     

     

     

    I did want all the other features like the remote start and heated seats - useful things in 10 degree weather. Eyesight was just part of good with the bad.

     

     

     

    I suppose it could be adjusted to scan too far ahead - which is not really compatible with the driving style in my Colorado town where people drive like 'move it or lose it'.

     

     

     

    The main thing that caused me to want to disable it was it activated when cars were turning off the road WELL in ahead of the system and would have been off the road way before I got there. The worst incident was on a sweeping left bend where a car was in a middle turn lane and it reacted as if the car was stopped in front of me. IT jammed on the brakes and almost caused a pileup.

     

     

     

    I'll stick with manually disabling it until I can get it checked out. I don't need or want these monitors because I can pay attention and know how to drive. My insurance record speaks for itself. Clean for 27 years. :)

     

     

     

    Agreed about the signature details - didn't have the time originally.

     

     

     

    Eyesight is an option on the 3.6 limited. It is not standard on any of the Legacy trim levels. If you dislike it so much, look into a limited without it. I'm sure they are harder to find, but still exist.

  2. I presume OP wanted the 3.6R which comes standard with eyesight. He didn't ask for any of your opinions on how to drive and bashing him for wanting to turn it off. Simply just answer his question.. I have a premium trim so no experience with eyesight.

    Touring does, limited doesn't I thought. OP needs to fill out their profile with their car info

  3. Yea....I dunno, the bottom of the line Ford Fusion compares to the bottom of the line Legacy and they both have 175hp. I just wish that Subaru took the "power road" and gave a bit more for the entry level. That is all I am saying.

     

    Entry level models:

     

    The 2.5 Altima has 179 hp.

     

    Passat has 170 hp.

     

    Camry has 178 hp.

     

     

     

    I see what you are saying. A little more power on the 2.5 and the option of 3.6 without taking the limited would both be phenomenal

  4. To me....the car just needs better power to weight ratio. I don't have the cash for the 6 cyl. so it is the 2.5i for me. The bottom feeder engine for a car of that size should give at least 185 whp.

     

     

     

    I really really really wish the 3.6 was an option through all the trims. I'd be all over a 3.6 premium, but I don't want to spend the money or care to have most of the features of the limited

  5. Funny ... My 2015 Legacy runs just as well today as it did yesterday, and it still fulfills the requirements I bought it for. Model envy is all in your head.

     

    yeah...I'm really bad with that. Cars, electronics, everything. I came from a 2005 Accord base trim so my 2017 premium is light years ahead of that thing. I just still can't resist newer things
