1997 Subaru Legacy GT review from North America
"Lots of fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission jerks when driving slowly, very jerky when it first shifts...
Dealers says it's normal because of the car's torque, I say bull... looking for another dealer.
General comments?
Aggresive stance, good handling, nice for Canadian winters. If I can only get the transmission fixed I would keep it forever.
