warrior325 Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Are there any major differences between the 05's and 06's? I'm in the market for a used LGT and i know plently on the 06's .. just wondering if there were any major changes from the 05s. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fweasel Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Nope. Do some searching for the minor, mostly cosmetic differences. ignore him, he'll go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irrational Exuberance Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 the entire inner assembly on the headlights is chrome on the 06, as opposed to the 05 where everything but the actualy function reflectors is that gunmetal plastic color "i like my women the way i like terrorists... ...screaming gods name and ready to explode." http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/5479/troy3nu5.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Dagwood Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 The 06s also had a higher side crash test rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erito Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 This is only US legacy/outback right? For Japan manufactured there are some differences. You can get VDC in 2.5l automatic cars as one major thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 On USDM, the '06 models also lose, sadly, the on-board OBD-II CEL code-reader. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradlgt21 Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I have a 06 and I have seen a bunch of guys 05's. So the differences I have found is the top of the streering wheel is perforated on the 05's not mine. The center cap of the rims on the 06 has the stars the 05's have subaru. The headlights like they said. Supposedly the 06's studder less, but my 06 has it. Some 05's have had bad clutches and were deamed defective. Something about the pressure plate. The passenger seat belt and driver info is a little different. Something different about the texture of the carpet. I am sure there are others but thats all I can think of.

Guest Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 The changed the test That's joke, right? They claim they actually reinforced the structure and improved the side air bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
