PhilT Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 If I'm reading that correctly, they only sold 311 Legacy wagons which were not Outbacks, looks pretty bad for future development Especially if they sold 631 Bajas !

aaykay Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Makes me wish i would have got the wagon when I had the chance You still have the chance. The 07 wagon is alive and kicking - the 08 may not re-appear as a wagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaykay Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 I heard a rumor that Subaru might drop the Outback Sedan and the Legacy Wagon - both slow sellers. They will then retain the Outback/Legacy line, purely as the Outback Wagon and Legacy Sedan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLegacy99 Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 They can only blame themselves, the car is fantastic, it's just not marketed correctly. Logic says this to me. When did Subaru become so popular? Ummmm when Paul Hogan was advertising the Legacy Outback. So re-sign him as spokesman of the whole fleet and reap the cash intake. Duh.

They will then retain the Outback/Legacy line, purely as the Outback Wagon and Legacy Sedan. Then they should offer the Legacy sedan in a 6 cylinder. I know people who just plain dont want a 4 cylinder, turbocharged or not. They go for the outback sedan with the da 3 liter. ....Id go for the Outback sedan with a 3.3L........

They go for the outback sedan with the da 3 liter. ....Id go for the Outback sedan with a 3.3L........ I agree about the 6-cyl. I would prefer a NA engine to a turbo-charged one, any day of the year. I think Subaru is selling themselves short by not offering the Legacy GT with a 6-cyl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUBAR Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 i see alot of Outback's, quite a few Impreza's but almost no Legacy's in my area. where are all the Legacy's if they sell so many if them? bosco There are tons of subies up here. I see at least 5 newer legacies going to and from work everyday and about the same amount of Tribeca's. Not to mention wrx's etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people who just plain dont want a 4 cylinder, turbocharged or not.The Legacy wagon and Outback sedan are dead for MY2008. And the MY2008 Legacy sedan will have a 3.0L 6-cylinder option.
