Paul G. Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 62k miles on my '05 2.5i wagon. No regrets. It ain't fast, but it's easy to drive fast. 2 mods--Bigger rear sway for flat neutral cornering. After 55k I put a set of Michelins for big improvement in the rain. I still enjoy the car every time I get in it, and look forward to the next 100k miles. P.

siyan Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I think the trunk size is pretty decent as well. I was suprised when I opened it up, could easily stuff a couple bodies in there. Too bad there's a glow in the dark internal release (at least there is on the Canadian Impreza) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyNameIsSam Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Yeah, I tried to lock my friends girlfriend in my trunk. She pulled the escape latch and I promptly shut the trunk. Sadly she was able to escape into the back seats:icon_sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockerGT Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 i spent 30k on my 2.5i just to buy......exteneded warranty and stuff was extra 6k OMG, they really railed you good. im covered for 200k with total vin etching and sum other bullcrap ...anyone else kno wtf mine was 6k? 200k warranty, with the way you drive, I'd be surprised if the car makes it to 100k. Did they charge you for new blinker fluid and muffler bearings too, or is that covered in the warranty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS Jeff Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I think anyone who sees the 2.5i as having performance potential is deluded. It's far too heavy to ever be a competitive racer, and nothing will ever change that. The 2.5i is basically a family car, albeit a safe one with AWD. That's it. End of story.

Legasee07 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 i just got an 07 2.5i limited 2 months ago, since i needed a daily driver, got it for 22K OTD..Its a great car for the money, nothing really is in its class N/A, Test drive it best way to find out if its for you or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mastabo Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Lots of replies since last time i checked. Looks likes 2.5i is good enough for me. Im worried about the gas mileage with the GT. 19...well ive never driven a turbo before so i wouldnt know too much either. Its weird not seeing people with the legacy on the road around here. Such a pretty car...people not favoring it. Its kinda sad. If you guys had another choice other than the legacy what would it be??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobE Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Im worried about the gas mileage with the GT. dont be worried about gas mileage, i get almost 18 mpg. :lol: http://newenglandsubarus.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2.5i is basically a family car, albeit a safe one with AWD. That's it. End of story. Yup. I'm getting it for the nice blend of size, safety, AWD, fairly soft on the highway but still fun enough in the curves, and decent MPG and power (though I wish it would get a 5 speed). I plan on throwing in an aftermarket Pioneer (or something) NAV/Audio system with Bluetooth integrated. Turn it into a sweet DD/Roadtrip car that handles pretty much any kind of weather. I know it wont be super fast, but meh, I'm practical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

800mZero Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 seriously? Seriously, Snow, sleet, freezing rain, slush, heavy down poors--so far i havent spun a tire--have a had a 1 slight skid at stop on some ice--car slid about 2 more feet than at break (I dont consider this spinning a tire if they're all breaked)--- but have not spun a tire at acceleration or normal drive speed. All this on the dreaded re-92's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGT Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Oh, I wasn't doubting the non-turbo lacked the power to overcome that AWD system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakuun Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 I've only owned the 2.5i models of Subarus. (03 Legacy wagon, currently an 02 Impreza) I said in a thread in the NA forums something to the effect of.. The Base models and the GT share 90% of what makes driving and owning a Subaru "Fun" The 10% difference is the Turbo. It can be a BIG diff if you're all about power power power, but if you enjoy driving first and formost and how fast you drive doesn't matter so much, ANY Subaru will suffice.

ShockerGT Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Yes, but included in that 10% is the pure sexiness that is the sound of a turbo boxer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spool 'whiiring' and BOV 'Psshhhhhh' do not the growl of a boxer make. I thought I got plently of sexy 'Boxer growl' just doing a snorkusectomy on my leggy.. I've heard in on my Impreza too despite the Snorkus.. the beast is there.. it wants free.. it's held back by the mega maze of the evil captor SNORKUS!!! MUWHAHAHAHHA lol.. I'm goofy today.
