1998 Subaru Legacy GT Limited Sedan review from North America

As of now, all I have needed to replace out of the ordinary was the front wheel bearing.

The only other obnoxious thing I have found is the water in the trunk. Living in Seattle, this is a problem and I have yet to find the source.

And the stupidest one, the driver floor mat won't stay where it belongs!

Don't like the lack of door frame (for the door glass).

I got this car this last summer as a daily driver replacement for my Nissan 240sx that I built for racing. I needed a car for hauling people.

I looked for another car for about a year and this was the one I wanted. It has all the options and it all works well. The previous owners had taken very good care of it. The only thing I added was a stereo and a CD changer. I did spend some time and money to replace belts, spark plugs, brakes, oil, and tires as I did get it used from a dealer.

The only things bugging me is the severe water leak in the trunk. I had found 2 gal. of water in the spare tire compartment, but that's it. I still need to replace the EGR valves, but other than that, she has been a great RELIABLE car for me. I was hoping for better MPG (22-24), but it is AWD and I'm also an aggressive driver, so that might explain it.

Inside is roomy and comfy. It has gray leather that was well cared for and everything is nicely placed.

The car is awesome in the snow! And likewise in the rain. As for the handling and performance, it's heavy, and kinda slow (mind you I was driving a Turbo Nissan before). I have the Suby for commuting/family trips. It's a nice car to drive, not a Lexus, but still nice.

I have recently also driven a 2007 Legacy. To be honest, I'm more impressed with my 98 then with the 07. I did not like the 07 like I do my car. My family only has Toyota's, Honda's and Subaru's for the most part and have never had any problems with any of our cars.
