Suspension Parts For Subaru Legacy!
Introduced almost two decades ago, the Subaru Legacy is the company’s longest-running nameplate in the United States. Thanks to its all-wheel drive, the Legacy shock absorber is often selected as a winter-beating alternative in the midsize sedan or wagon segment. There have been four generations of the Subaru Legacy. For the current model, Subaru revamped the vehicle and its image by adding power and moving it more upscale with a slicker profile and premium standard features. The most significant change was the addition of the Impreza WRX STI’s turbocharged engine, which slots the powerful Legacy GT Limited into a category that’s typically occupied by European cars.
The Subaru Legacy has really come into its own with the current model, claiming the role of Subaru’s air suspension parts. True, it’s not a ground breaking design, and it even bears some of the quirks that have come to characterize Subaru, such as a chunky hood scoop. But the Legacy does possess a more metropolitan character than in generations past. The interior materials are excellent, and style, fit and finish are competitive with more expensive European marques.
The Subaru Legacy comes in only one sedan body style, available in six trim levels: 2.5i, 2.5i Special Edition, 2.5i Limited, 2.5 GT Limited, 2.5 GT spec.B and 3.0 R Limited. Although the base car is a bit of a stripper, the other trims are well-equipped and can make the Legacy as luxurious and comfortable as some midsize cars wearing luxury badges. Powering the 2.5i trim levels is a 175-horsepower 2.5-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine. The sportier GT Limited trim gets an exciting turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder good for 243 hp. These models come with either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. The 2.5 GT spec.B adds a firmer suspension, 18-inch wheels and a six-speed manual transmission. The 3.0 R has a 245-hp 3.0-liter flat-6 that comes with a five-speed automatic transmission. As with all Subaru vehicles, AWD is standard across all models.
