Need Help with My 4th Gen Subaru Legacy GT!

I appreciate that perspective! What do you think about the fuel economy? Is it reasonable for a turbo model?

Fuel economy is decent, especially if you’re not heavy on the throttle all the time. I’m averaging about 25 MPG! That’s not bad for a turbocharged vehicle.

I’m considering a manual transmission version. How’s the clutch feel? Is it forgiving for someone who isn’t super experienced?

The clutch is pretty user-friendly; I’ve had friends with less experience drive mine without any issues. Just practice a bit before hitting traffic! It’s a fun car to shift.

Sounds great! Now, I’ve heard some debate about the reliability of the turbo engines. Any thoughts on that?

I think the reliability varies by owner and maintenance habits. I’ve been lucky! Some people say they’ve had turbo issues, while many others swear by their Legacy GTs. It’s a bit contentious.
