The Subaru Legacy was one of the most underrated cars of its time. The legacy went down in history as a car that is not wanted by many, but it is a major sleeper in our book. The Legacy first released to the public in 1990 and is still making its way around to this day! What do you think of the Subaru Legacy? Drop a comment below!

I am not a huge fan of subaru anymore, but I think the legacy always beats the impreza. The impreza's have always been so cheap compared to a legacy
@@LordGeyBoi this
So you want a Cadillac CTS (2010) version
Coming from a WRX owner I feel this 😅😂- Jt
@@FitmentIndustries I had so many issues with my 2010 inpreza, so I got an 06 ram 2500 with the 5.7 hemi and the 6spd manual. I am much happier
Dude I felt this on a whole nother level. I will NEVER sell my legacy
Me either
what year legacy do you have?
Ditto
05 legacy going strong here @that_legacy
Me either im putting in an iag stage 2 short block cuz i love this car so much
So I have a Subaru Legacy... Thus I clicked this video
Thus I also clicked because of my Legacy whip 🚗
same!!!
Same hahahahha
Hows the headgaskets boys?
@@fernz5886 not bad, intercooler popped open the other day.. that was fun...
I bought my legacy new in 05, and as a 20 something it was a great 'tuner' car. But now that I'm older I definitely appreciate its comfort oriented interior, and its classic styling.
In the process of doing a ground up rebuilt, and I'm very excited to get it back on the road.
For you young guys this is basically a WRX without the "hey cops pull me over" and vape jokes you get from the other Subarus.
Or the turbo
Love both cars.. I ended up in a wrx for just the size of the vehicle I got to shave off a few inches off of overall length
plumberwrx 05 legacy 2.5gt has a turbo and makes more power than the same year wrx. Js
The legacy b4 has 2 turbos
Sadly no manual for new legacies
Ferraris are red
Subarus are blue
I remember when Mitsubishi made lancers go stututuuutututu 😔

Who else was waiting for the "but this isn't a history lesson..."
Geezy He said a variant of that. “BUT! We aren’t here to talk about the history of the Subaru Legacy”
Subaru Legacy is allround good platform
Im looking at getting a 2008 legacy with a turbo h-4? Are they good cars? Has 184000
@@bigirish4542I've got a JDM 08 Outback XT, 2.5L Turbo and I will never sell it! =)
@@bigirish4542 I have a 2008 wagon and I really love it. Comfortable and smooth ride with excellent offroad properties! Cannot comment on the engine too much as I have a Diesel and I assume you are looking for a Petrol version :)
Ah yes that orange legacy that roams around Minnesota will always be an icon in my eyes.
Wait you've seen my car around?
Yea, His IG is @1slicklegacy. hes good shit.
Michael Walker i bought my mudflaps from you bro 😅
This is amazing. The Leggy love in here is soooo deep you guys😍😍😍
PS - Would y’all legit give the subie wave? I feel so neglected and unloved up here, the Leggy folk ain’t get no brappp daps or zoom slaps or subie fam up top claps...
I live one Minnesota haven’t seen it around
Damn i never thought my spec B would end up in a fitment industries video thats so rad! And an extremely slept on platform in my opinion. ( I own the orange spec B)
🔥🔥🤘🏼
I had a 2.5 gt in highschool. I wanted a spec b so bad! I could never find one for sale though. Really special car you got there.
@@sweis12 I came across this about 3 years ago locally too so I got very lucky!
I miss my spec b ! Had a 08 awhile ago then sold it to someone in mn. Still see the car every now and then. Makes me want another one.
I just Bought an '08 GT last week. I was trying for so long to find a spec.B but the only one that showed up in 500 miles from me (Los Angeles) had around 210k miles for a little over 10k which didn't seem worth it to me. Its my first car, been riding a motorcycle for a year and a half, and I'm happy with it. I got it from a guy who owns an FD RX-7, an S2000 (his first car) and an '18 WRX so at least i know my car is in good condition 😊 Still wondering if i can find a wrecked spec.B and swap the 6 speed into my non spec.B
will ask until i die: so you want a honda accord
Damn right me too ‼️
MAKE IT HAPPEN FITMENT!!!
6th gen Honda Accord is the best Accord, don't you even @ me
Yes please please please
So you must be a retiree!?
I bought my 06 LGT 4 years ago at the age of 16. I didn't even really know a whole lot about Subaru at the time but the car seemed coolish. Little did I know it would be the best decision I have ever made. I am a Subaru Ambassador now and have met some of my closest friends thanks to this car. I know it sounds a little cheesy but this car means the world to me.
this made me want one even more
@@dxrkfoxx I cannot stress how amazing of a car the legacy is. If you have any questions about the car or want to learn more about my experience with the car id be happy to talk. The legacy is just an amazing car that is severely underrated.
@@bradwallace5967 looking to get my first car and this might honestly be the one i got for. would love to hear more from you about this bro
@@lilspoon2401 im super busy with work now so I'm bad at responding, I'd be happy to answer any and all questions you have about it, if you'd like an easier platform to talk on I can give you my Instagram so you can dm me!
@@lilspoon2401 actually im just gonna leave it in a comment now, reach out to me whenever and I'll get back with any questions you have. You're not gonna bother me at all so please ask away! My Instagram is @yin_official you won't be able to miss my account as it's all cars including my legacy and S2000 haha
I had a 2005 LGT for about 12 years. When I bought it, I was cross shopping the WRX, and for the same amount of money, it had ~25 more HP/TQ, had a more upscale interior, optional wagon, and a 40% cheaper insurance rate. It ended up being incredibly reliable and responded really well to tuning, and took some STI parts. It was a great car for the mid-late 2000's, prior to direct injection becoming the new standard.
My first car was a legacy GT. Car was a true sleeper
You must share the love I have. I’m about to purchase my third one.
@@theangryitalianscottypiffi1048 I have a legacy but it’s not a gt
did your head gasket ever go or no bc I'm thinking about getting one but I'm afraid of the head gasket
@@drunkelmo8411 no but I blew the engine up 😅
@@theodysseusking so is it worth getting one that needs a head gasket?
The 3.0r legacy 4th gen is the first car I ever bought and still loving it to this day. 250hp of naturally aspirated 6 cylinder power so no turbos to worry about and cheaper than the twin turbos here in New Zealand. Less likely to have been thrashed all it’s life as well. Only issue is there is less head room for modifications but if you’re looking for a sensible and reliable car with AWD and plenty of grunt I’d highly recommend one of these. My cousin has a gti golf with a built engine and smokes me in a straight line but sure as hell cant keep up on some lovely windy roads hahaha. Love the videos mate and a big hello to the car community out there! Love learning about all cars, every car is great in its own way. Hope everyone is having a good one!
Hey mate, massive fan of your car, i owned one very breifly and sold it again due to having my heart set on an outback for practicality. I loved it so much i am currently bolting a 6speed manual to the ez30 resting in there.
one day i plan on turbo charging it. have you ever considered this? there is massive power gains to be had on very minimal boost
Just bought one today any advise on things to look out ?
Wow no way! This video made me genuinely happy like for real. My legacy gives me the biggest smile when I drive her. Such a slick car imo that doesn't get enough credit. 4th gen represent!
"the car that will always be there for you. Like the girl you accidentally took advantage of"
That is an understatement for the underrated Legacy 😭👏
The greatest things about the legacy are that it has the power of a WRX, is more practical and is less likely to be pulled over by a cop
Nothing beats a 2005 subaru legacy with the 3.0 flat six and the 6 speed manual trans.
I own a 2015 Legacy Premium absolutely LOVE this car! AWD, amazing bells and whistles, plenty of room for kids and family, sounds great and has decent performance for what it is
I was just car shopping, had an appointment to see an accord and Camry. While waiting for the dealership to open I walked across to the Subaru dealership and came across a 2015 legacy limited, beautiful, cleannn fully loaded car with only 58k miles. Got a great price after negotiating, love the car!
@alvaropinto5821 I got my 2014 Limited Used for $2800 because it has higher miles but it still runs like a dream The AWD is amazing especially considering where I live we have a lot of dirt roads and rain and in winter snow and it handles those no problem
They're called liberty over here. Have an 07 one.
Goes alright
I have a 2005 Legacy Gt wagon and it has been great! Headgasket didn’t go out until 180k miles It’s been a blast I’m never selling it
You say it like that’s a good thing
do asking 10 questions with Regular Car Reviews!
I see you are a man of taste lol
Absolutely love my Spec B. Unfortunately hail damage on it. But makes it even more of a sleeper.
Learn pdr on it. I just got hit with hail hard, my insurance covered most of it, i just pitched in a little extra to have the whole thing sprayed.
Dood no joke, I also have a spec B with hail damage. It does make it a deep sleeper lol
@@jamesray7877 sadly. I sold the spec b and Frs. Time for 500hp Soarer!
So you want Alex to collab with James from Donut Media
That would be dope
Thank you for increasing my GTs value with this video, and eh they aren't that finicky. Basically the same as any other subaru. 05 - 09 share a LOT with 08 - 14 WRX's and they still look damn good!
Hey you left out the flat 6 ez30 and ez36 cars,Porsche designed heads make for some pretty sweet sounds.
After the 4th gen legacys were never as good. Though you could get a H6 in some gen3 oubacks, iirc it wasnt the ez30 and was not that great a platform. The Ez30 in the gen4 isnt a massive power plant compared to the GT models
SpecB EZ30r is a great ride. Fitted a blower and waiting on new headers. Best sleeper I’ve owned. czcams.com/video/dlVpRE_ScsE/video.html
@@Cuereus777 That's a joke. 5th gen legacys are the shit.
Yeah brilliant I’m from Jamaica 🇯🇲 they are scared 😱 of my ez30 it’s mad not even your 2021 car can test my h6 it will box you to the canvas!!
Nerd you you leave out the beast ez30 & the ez36 you’re a intelligent fool!!
My mom gave her 01 legacy gt and now I realize how reliable this car now especially in rain and snow! (I lived in canada). And now I'm modifying car time by time!
Owner of a 2008 Legacy GT and over 11 years of owning her it is definitely a love/hate relationship. It's good when she behaves is the truth haha. 3 different setups/tunes and debating on finishing her off with a built shortblock and 6 speed trans. Have all supporting mods to support 450whp minus SB and trans. Definitely the sleeper I been wanting to build and the smiles are priceless! The grown up wrx/sti for sure and the facial reactions when my EWG and perrin ELH sound off is the best feeling ever on e85 map!
Have had my 2006 LGT for 7 years now. Showing it's age, but i still love it! It's basically a sleeper Luxury WRX/STI with leather, heated power seats and mirrors, sunroof, navigation, etc.
JDM twinscroll wagoon, great daily and a lot of fun to drive
I have an 07 Legacy GT. Lowered, Cobb downpipe, SPT exhaust, Cobb intake, Perrin turbo inlet hose, Tomei UEL header, Whiteline sway bars and kaetboy end links. It's an amazing car but it has 160k and there's a good chance I will be needing a new engine by 2021. But I still give it hell most days. Love it just need wheels and tires now. Oh and a new engine. Lol.
Just bought a 2007 Outback 3.0R L.L. Bean Edition sedan. Limited slip differential and a flat 6, that exhaust sounds AMAZING with just a muffler delete. The EZ30D gen 2 are very underrated engines.
So you want an Acura Legend. DO IT!!!
Legacy’s are beautiful until the engine goes like a typical Subaru. Still keeping mine though
LS swap. Seems to be my default comment and I have no idea if it's even possible
Replace the head gasket and the engine is bullet proof
Got my MYR 2008 Legacy 2.5 GT new in 2009 in Singapore and is still with me today ... Great car ....
I've had my 4th gen lgt since 07. Paid for this thing 2x as of 2020. All upgrades of course. Every time I go for a drive, miles of smiles
God dammit you weren't suppose to talk about this one😭😭 if people start buying them the price will go up fast amd high😭😭😭
Fitment industries: makes a "So you want a..." video
The value of that car: 📈
Yeah fitment industries and donut both do sucks anytime they cover a car or make best cheap sports cars lists the values skyrocket and you basically end up with outdated info,I enjoy the content and all but that's a negative aspect for sure
I have 243,326 miles on the original engine. 2003 BH5 5 speed. Do the maintenance, and drive like hell!
07 LGT sedan here, love it more then my Ascent. Also #tomei #grimmspeed all day.
The EZ30R engine from the JDM/NZDM/AUDM versions is amazing, came with 6 speed from the factory used in the V7+ WRX STI. The Gen 3 Twin Turbo BE5D Legacy was the fastest one they ever made, JDM+exports only of course.
got a question man. So apparently they limited the power on the manual spec b's from 2007 onwards. were the 2.0 gt's and 2.5 gts quicker than the spec b. not much info anymore, apparently the five speed manual 2006 spec b did 5.1 0-60, but that had the full 250 hp and no SI drive. all the 2006's ive looked for in Australia have SI drive, and a 6 speed. sorry such a question, just hard to find experts nowadays
I'm so glad I'm finally able to see a video appreciating the legacy
2018 Legacy here. 180 mile a day, 5 days a week commuter car and she's doing exactly what she is supposed to; so far anyway. I think Id buy another Subaru just for the adaptive cruise control. When you drive like I do. That adaptive cruise control is God Send. Still waiting to see if it can stand up to the longevity of my 08 Camry though. That old girl and her 2GR-FE engine kicked ass and ran over 600k miles on the original engine and transmission with no major overhauls. Those are pretty big shoes to fill. The car was still running great when I retired her too. Sold her to some kid that wanted it to put the engine in a Toyota MR2. I honestly didn't know people did that! Now I do
Anyway Ive always been a die hard Toyota guy. I mean hell I still drive my 13 Tacoma when I'm not commuting. The wife has her 17 4runner and I still have my wife's old 14 Corolla S with only 38k miles sitting pretty for my niece when she graduates high school 2021. I think I'm more excited about giving her the car for a job well done than she will be about receiving it. I think kids deserve significant reward for getting through those grueling years of school. As adults we often forget just how hard school was and how much it sucked. So making it through, especially as an A student deserves major props. Id say an old model but almost new car is descent props haha. I'm going to see if the Subaru Legacy can stand up to the "legacy" of Toyota that's made me such a huge fan and up until 8 months ago one who only ever bought Toyotas.
As a gen 4 liberty/legacy owner it is the most fun car ive ever owned
Can confirm, my 4gen spec.B is the best car I've ever owned
I’m a new owner of a 2009 legacy gt
hell yea enjoy your purchase!
I had an 04 legacy for 4-5 years and never spend a dime except brakes and oil.
Picked up an 05 legacy Gt two owner 134k all original about a month ago. Absolutely love it
After you overcome the HG issue you're golden! My '07 LGT is over 400k kms or 250k miles+ and still running strong!
no way freaking legacy!! that’s awesome. even one step closer to wheels that fit 04 forester (:
SG forester gang, I have an 03 forester
Spencer Phillips fozzy gang! what’s your set up? i’m bone stock just got an xt
@@creed7970 I got a handed down 03 xs from my dad when he didn't want to repair it, so I rebuilt the engine, and have some cheap Raceland coils on it, pretty bone stock tho because the ej251 in it doesn't seem to handle turbos very well. But it's a fun handling car even tho it's kinda slow
Spencer Phillips honestly man as long as your rolling that’s all that matters my brother in law and i just like to cruise and have fun
03’s are sick bro they look so clean lowered a little with some nice rims
@@creed7970 true they do look great, especially the slammed setups imo, because if you can't make it go fast, you may as well make it look as good as possible while it cruises, tho I am kind of jealous of the 04 xt for its incredible speed on the stock block 👌
Where my Legacy GT bros at!
Yooo
@@connormcdavidss1345 ❤️
I recently picked up a 2010 Legacy GT. Less than 2000 5th gen gt’s were produced in the US.
I was holding out for comments on the 5th gen, but I've liked it for the last 3 weeks
Legacy's are nicer than Impreza's, prove me wrong! =P
They look better, Impreza kind of ugly at least the older ones
I’m glad you added some gen 3 B4 legacy’s one there ❤️
I watched this video a year ago & now I own an 09 special edition with a 5 speed. I dumped 5000 into the motor straight away. Despite the previous owner saying that it had a new head gasket, timing belt and clutch I replaced all those items and much much more and it runs like a champion.
Probably the best description of a Subaru I’ve ever heard and I can confirm it’s 100% true. The toddler one got me
🤝
I own a 08 Spec b 2.5l turbo six speed manual, and its amazing. Definitely a head turner without the police attention.
The six speed transmission is so much better than the 5 speed the wrx's come with. They're also fairly quick stock ive beaten wrxs of the same era and the legacys have so much potential with the 3 different drive modes for tuning.
What’s it like to own a legacy? Just get your wallet ready 😂
FiercePumpkin Tell me about it. I’ve over double my initial purchase price so far...😕
I bought my 05 wagon for $2300, 6 months later, when it was totalled, i had $6000 invested already
It’s the Japanese equivalent of German cars pretty much 😂
That hit me hard
Big facts I know all about it 😂😭😭
I had to go out of state to get my 05 GT wagon. Blew out a turbo (stupid filtered banjo bolts) but it's still the best daily driver I've ever had
It's not just a car, it's a Legacy 👍🏻
What are the odds this video came out 2 days after I was I was hoping they would make a legacy video lmao
Yes my dream car
YOU FORGOT ABOUT THE H6 3.0!!!!!! The godly ez30d motor. The Porsche x Subaru collab. The flat 6 pony
Fi Intro be the hardest car thing I watch on CZcams 🔥🔥🔥
ive got an 07 specb wagooooon great car love it
You need to do more homework. You missed the B4 variants, and the S401 - I know you didn't get them but they're worth a mention
Plus they are the fastest one. Love my 1998 B4 RSK
Oh my God I have a Legacy GT! I never thought my car would get an episode, thank you guys so much!
This man Went straight for the Kill for all of us with Third Gen Legacies by not even mentioning it! He went from 1st and 2nd STRAIGHT TO THE 4TH GEN. That hurt my soul...
smh not enough 3rd gen love. 12:10 summed it up perfectly lol. Love my gt
Favorites car I've owned was a 2008 legacy.
Finally got a feature! Super honored! I’ll be rolling out a feature film soon on my LGT! Keep up the awesome work!
Finally! My 06 lgt with an sti turbo
is happy now
I had a friend with a built engine(s) Legacy and it seems like to make much above stock power the engine becomes a consumable 😂
While I love my G37, I’ll always miss my ‘05 Legacy GT 😭
Lol i also had an 05 legacy and now i too have a g37
I have a g37 and looking to daily the Legacy
My first car was an 01 legacy outback, and I absolutely love and miss that car
I got a Subaru Legacy 2016, I Dropped sum Adjustable coilovers with some 19 inches offset Rims, canot forget about my rolled fenders and now your Grandma Waves Hi to me everytime i pass by :)
I own 2 spec b legacy and absolutely love them! Mine are gen 3 just wish more parts were available in the UK 😔
Wait are you talking about the b4 because my mum has one
The legacy is a perfect stance mobile #WagoonGang
YESSIR
Stancing a legacy just screams autism
@@fanbat To you.
I had an 09 legacy 2.5 N/A before my E46 and I lived that thing even tho it was slow AF open headers and I was good to go😂
Just bought one yesterday since I needed a car. Little did I know, id be opening a whole world of opportunities
"Trading Chaos runes for more RS references." *I was never a member though, because I'm not a baller like that
😂
Been hunting to import a clean B4 Rsk.
Yo my mums got one
RuneScape references were so much more nostalgic
I was waiting soo long to see you guys do a video about the legacy
THANK YOU , really I own a 3rd gen legacy
And slowly I'm making it the best car for me
I want to add 17" esr 15 with a 45 tire
Love this really hope you are all safe and happy have a blast 😁
hell yeah I want a legacy. can't afford it (yet) though.
I’ve had 2 spec b’s. Great fun daily
Loved every word of you comment except the word "had"...
Oh hey, I have a 2011 Legacy. The first car I ever personally purchased after trading in a 2010 Nissan Altima my parents got me (it was definitely on its last legs). I've really been liking it so far. It's not gigantic, it's handled well when the roads were icey, and it has all the features I need. Hoping I will be able to drive it for many years to come
Me too. I got the limited eidition still going strong. I recently got stp dual exhaust setup on it and it sounds amazing. Now all i need a sti spoiler and its my own version of legacy GT. 😂
Building a 500hp 05 legacy gt wagon. Probs never sell it. Its gonna be my daddy wagon.
"So You Want A Mazdaspeed6"
Had one for 10 years then I sold it. Was a fun car to drive.
what he's basically trying to say is you own a subaru because you want one, not always true, but almost always is. This comes from a proud outback owner
Im from the UK and own a 98 JDM Legacy GTB Twin Turbo Manual (280bhp and Bilstein Suspension from the factory)
Probably the best car I've ever owned,
And I've owned multiple Turbo imports and countless "Hot Hatches"
Thanks for crediting my footage. Most people wouldn't do that! Nice video haha.
It wouldn’t be right not to! Good shots 🤘🏼🔥
@@FitmentIndustries Appreciate it guys
Time out...... Alex said “I am Fitment Industries” .......I know I’m not the only one that caught that
Sometimes i would just watch the intro of their videos just to listen to the soundtrack.
Dam I love it.
You forgot to mention that the spec b only comes in manual so for all you hot boys out there who don't know how to drive a manual gearbox don't waste your time
Around the rest of the world the spec b came in a 260bhp auto as well as a manual. The jdm manual had 280hp
I have a 4 door 09 2.5 GT aut, It is 100% stock and I will always keep it like that, No one can make them better then Subaru self,
I have had many cars Alfa, BMW, Audi and Mercedes, but only my Alfa (86 GTV) drove nearly like my Legacy.
With 265 hk and 350 nm and the way it deliver power it is a true sleeper,
I love how it demand that you have to know what you looking at to understand what you see.
I own a 2001 Legacy GT Limited 5MT and have since 2006. It's been a blast even without the turbo. Snow drifting is immensely fun.
My first car was a legacy and I adored it, I have to get another one some day
I used to have a legacy 2.5 gt and it was my favorite car, i was gonna build tf out of it but I got rear ended by a truck and now it’s long gone
I really want to see Alex do a So You Want episode on a Honda Accord. I got an 06 Accord Sedan with a 3.0L V6 and a 6speed manual transmission and it's super rare in the sedan form and it would warm my heart to see this channel talk about it 💙
