Some 90 year old in a legacy cut me off and I was like hmmm that's a decent looking Subaru so now I want one lol

My legacy runs phenomenally great, the only problem I had to fix was getting a new alternator and now a new ball joint after hitting a really bad pothole last February. Did I mention my Legacy is from 1993. Best car manufacturers ever.

Gosh, how I LOVE your reviews!!! THIS is a review! Not a "Uhhm... It has cool rims.. nice racing seats, now let's floor it!" type of review.

- One of the other things i really like (floors it, wonderful boxer 6 sound comes out) - Is the brake pedal feel - :(

This is first time I've watched one of your reviews and this I have to say is the most detailed, thorough and well explained I've seen. No wonder you get so many views. Keep up the excellent work!

Great review. I've owned one of these for a little over a year, cruised around the web looking at all sorts of related content in that time, and I haven't seen anything that so perfectly sums up the car so well.

I love how you explain each part of the engine and components. Thank you. I just bought a 17 Legacy with the 2.5i

I just went out and bought this car (except I got it in black, with no eyesight cameras) and I couldn't be happier! This truly is a very well-rounded car that is extremely comfortable and drives extremely smooth. The Harman-Kardon audio system is really good and I was shocked on how spacious this car is (especially in the back seats)!!! I just wanted to thank you for this wonderful review because it really helped my decision of getting this car. This is a true review, and you make it easy for a car novice like myself to understand everything. Thank you again.

The inside shots now look much more professional than in the previous reviews. Great work and great review once again.

Wow you're reviews are always so detailed yet straight to the point. Awesome video!

Fantastic review. Not many reviewers go through the details the way you do. Its shows you know what you talked about. Keep it up.

For being a more family oriented sedan, the engine sure does roar when you really get generous with the gas. I love it!

An update on my 2017 Subaru 2.5i, base model. We did not need all the extra bells and whistles, but we upgraded the interior with a Katzkin leather kit for about $400, 17" aftermarket rims, door panel guards, mud flaps, Homelink mirror, and a set of optional fog lights. Our total upgrades was about $1,200, which put the total cost around $22,000 before taxes. This was a much better option than buying the Premium model for $25,000 that had a lot of options we just don't want or really need, and still don't get a leather interior. Well, we are pleasantly surprised at how well the car runs and drives. The new chain driven CVT is much better than I thought it would be. For all of our normal driving, the acceleration is more than sufficient. In fact at only 3,000rpm, the car accelerates much faster than most normal driving we do. Initial acceleration from a dead stop does have a slight lag. However, it's mid to high acceleration band from say 20-80mph is pretty impressive. Once the CVT is locked up, it will take you from 20mph on a highway on-ramp to 70mph lickety-split. In fact it seems to accelerate onto the highway much faster and feels more stable than the Camry we test drove. The handling feels much better than a Camry, and is more inline with a Mazda 6. It is a very flat and sporty drive, yet the interior noise is very low, like a Camry. Cornering is very good, especially when you hit the accelerator on a corner, you can just feel the rear drive kicking in to push you around a corner vs plowing around a corner in a FWD only car. It is also a deceptively fast car. Because the interior is so quiet, the first time I hit the highway, I accelerated into the left lane, and found myself passing the right lane quite handily. I then realized I was going 85mph, and the car barely felt like it was going 60mph, because it such a smooth and quiet car. Part of that is the 17" rims, instead of the 18" rims on the sport models. I did notice from test driving the 17" rimmed cars do drive quieter and slightly smoother. Overall MPG is around 29-30mpg for us. On the highway alone it easily does 36mpg for those long flat road trips. Also, oil consumption is very low, which is a known issue with boxer engines. After 5,0000 miles, we did lose a little oil, but did not need to add any between oil changes. Looks like about 1/4qt loss at the most. And that is on a brand new engine that is still breaking in. As time has gone on, oil consumption appears to be less, and overall MPG's are slowly going up as the piston rings get seasoned and seat properly. So far, I would say I really recommend this car for anyone who wants an AWD family car, or just an all around good car to drive everyday.

these reviews are actually reviews instead of some bs stuff that people are paid to talk about. genuine, accurate information with good constructive criticism on the car. without all those annoying intros and outros with some random dubstep track like other channels

Outstanding review, it's a pleasure to seat back and listen all the things you cover regarding this or any other vehicle review. You are simply covering everything and anything, especially I find very useful your feeling in the car, since I am of the same hight. Great job, man, just keep on doing the same way with other vehicles.

After viewing numerous video car reviews on the net, I must state that this particular video was the MOST COMPREHENSIVE and EDUCATIONAL review from every vantage point, spanning from a thorough explanation of the suspension components to the detailed functions of the vehicle as it glides in motion!! Quite SUPERB indeed, so I HIGHLY COMMEND you for such excellence! My wife has the 2013 Subaru Tribeca with the same H-6 engine (but with the 5 speed auto trans), so I was fascinated on the attention to the detail devoted to the engine parts. With the Tribeca's rear-wheel bias of its normal torque split of 45% of the power delivery of the front wheels with 55% to the rear wheels, I agree that the throttle is touchy that can somewhat jolt one back into their seat without any wheel spin if the gas pedal is pushed too much from a standing start.

Thanks EE2... I watch a lot of car reviews from KZfaq; by far you do the best. So detailed...

GOOD JOB! I like going into the technical side more in a review. THUMBS UP!

Great review - I saw one of these on the road the other day - 3.6R in ice silver metallic - beautiful car and my conclusion is that the pictures of these vehicles don't do it any justice - on my short list

You always do thorough testing and are not afraid to criticise the car in any way. Good review.

Underbody and underbonnet camerawork differentiates you from the rest. Details real car lovers want to know. Great stuff Jason.

Wow. I'm very impressed! You go into a lot of depth showing components and their connections. I actually learnt a lot from this video. Thanks so much for your review! Subscribed for sure!

Love the review, proper and thorough review with attention to the kinds of details I like to pay attention to! Thanks for uploading, I hope to see more of these in-depth reviews (especially Subaru vehicles).

The brakes are stellar. I don't know what they did with the hardware, but it's the best I've used for precision and modulation.

Gentleman in the video, I don't know what your name is and I can't find it. I came here to check out this Subaru Legacy but then I discovered another great thing- the way you make all these videos...... I like you being straight forward, clear and scientifically precise, rich knowledgeable contents, and no gimmick or attitude like some others....... You are brilliant, I must say, and thank you for making those awesome stuff.

You had the dome light on the whole time! Great review otherwise. I enjoy the technical views more than the opinions other reviewers give. I am eager to see more reviews from you.

Very thoughtful placement of the battery, dipstick, coolant fill access, etc. Good job Subaru.

Thanks for the detail on the adaptive cruise. It is a must have on my next vehicle.

People hate on Subaru but i am amazed how well they make them! Yes the boxer engine is a bit outdated and the sti version hasnt got many changes in performance but i really like the way they make the interior in their cars. Looks like a very good car to me

What a terrific, knowledgeable, thorough, useful review. I can't imagine it being any better. Thank you.

The first time I've seen a car review video that actually addresses the every day drivers concerns. Very well done, rather than just loads of fancy angles and movements. Keep up the good work.

I have been eyeing up one of these. They look so nice! And I'm loving the moonroof

This is a must see, particularly if this car is one you might buy. 2015 is the first year of the new 5 year cycle so lots here to offer instruction through ‘16, ‘17, ‘18 and ‘19 model years. Really helpful.

how old is this guy i can't ell if he's 40 or 19 lmao

Your video reviews offer unique insight nobody else touches on, maybe because most auto journalists are not engineers. Something to be proud of. That said, something I noticed is lacking from nearly every car review I've read or viewed is the subject of rear seat head room. Being 6'1", you are well qualified to comment on the subject. I am 5'11" and find that when my butt is in the back of the seat my head hits the ceiling in most sedans, even in full size cars. But even some small cars offer good rear-seat headroom. I'd like to hear your thoughts on rear-seat head room for cars you review in the future. Thanks!

Great review! I had one of these as a loaner today while my '09 2.5i was in the shop for service. Completely different car! But in a good way. An obvious difference was less road feel, which I actually liked because my Legacy is pretty hard over the bumps. This model absorbed them better, with similarly profiled tires. While I agree with some here that it could use 50 more HP, I also felt it had enough power to be fun to drive and safe for getting on the highway, but didn't have so much as to easily get me in trouble. To your comment about how the car lunges momentarily when accelerating and switching gears: totally agree. Not sure what causes that but I did find it a little bit alarming. Made me feel that there was a temporary loss of control, which I did not like. I would like the onset of torque/HP to feel more linear.

Great! Thanks for this 2016 6 cyl. Legacy review. I bought mine on a busy, rainy Saturday and didn't get much info.

Keep up the good work and reviews! We need people like you. Thanks!

Excellent review. One of the best Videos. awesome :-). When i looked at some other videos where were wishy washy with no technical content.

Well done. I like your very technical style, more reviews please!

One of your best reviews. Thank you very much!!!

Excellent reviewer! Love the in depth mechanical info and knowledge.

Just bought a 2018 3.6r I came from a wrx so the handling was the first thing I noticed. Alot of body roll. Now I have been riding around for about a month and man I really love the legacy I m gonna tune it up a bit make it a little more snappy but man what a nice ride

Excellent commentary! Thank you so much for your professional, detailed, mechanical, and engineering review!

Man!, your reviews are the best I've watched including Brian Cooley from Cnet.

I love the way you review the car...very good job. greetings from Iran!

That was an excellent review. It's great to have another engineer's perspective on a car and get down to the nitty gritty rather than other typical reviews that focus on inconsequential criteria like cup holder size etc. I'm a massive Subaru fan though... So I'm a bit biased. Currently driving a gen 5 legacy and this looks to be even better

This is the best 2015 Subaru Legacy 3.6R review I have seen on KZfaq. And trust me, I have seen them all!

Your reviews are very good ! You can make more reviews , for example, some good cars in engineering or desigh . That will be great ! No matter new or old one.

Excellent review! I have watched many and this finally gave me what I was looking for... I am going to buy one of these cars!

I own this model car and I didn't know you could lock it by touching the front of door handle. No more fishing the fob out of my pocket. The dealership didn't even know that. Cool.

Great review! Thank you for your in depth hard work. Please continue to do what you best!

100% agree on how the pedals feel. I dreamed about how the pedals feel before I got my license and I was very surprised when those matched my dreams. Literally feels like a dream:)

Thanks for the detail explanation! Best review ever!

Now that's what you call a thorough review.

I own a 2011 Subaru Legacy 2.5 Limited. I drive over one hour to and from work each day. I love my car. In bad weather the car is a beast. I have read on here some very negative comments about Subaru and I am really confused. It's going on almost 5 years I have had my car and I couldn't be happier. I have put no money into my car besides the regular maintenance. As far as resale value, my car has almost 80,000 miles on it and it's work almost $ 13,000 which is not bad. I would 100% buy another Subaru. They are great cars.

Great review, I really like your perspective. I have the 2015 Outback and completely agree with your thoughts on the brake pedal.

nice review, also good engineering explained, keep up the great work.

Great review! I love my 2017 Subaru Legacy Sport, which is very similar to the 2015 model you reviewed!

Good job on the review, really in depth and understandable. Keep it up!

Extremely detailed review!

Really good review sir very knowledgeable keep it up

I've never seen a review like this before , and I mean that in the best way!!

Best review I've seen - in depth, thoughtful, and very thorough. Excellent!

I could hear a lot of road and wind noise in the cabin while you were on the highway. That is one of the only issues that makes me hesitant towards a subaru purchase. Other than that, love your videos, very detailed reviews. Thank you!

Excellent review, the indepth look at the suspension was a lil 'different to other reviews. Onto my 2nd Legacy, 1st was a twin turbo 2L four, now drive a 3L 6, looking hard at the new 3.6L Outback.

That was a thorough and excellent review! Thank you!

"I probably fall outside of the normal width ratio so I cant really blame Subaru for that one" LOL!!

You definitely deserve more subs and likes. I've never seen a review as thorough as you have done here. Great Job!

Well thought out and produced review. You've definitely developed a really nice format/setup that's informative, thoughtful, and just the right amount of information for prospective buyers (or car geeks like myself).If this car came in a manual, I'd be considering it more seriously...I'm just one of those guys that 'needs' a manual. Otherwise, I think this is a really solid platform/sedan.

Thinking about buying one of these used. There's one in my area with 40k miles and it looks very clean. I think I'll go for a test drive tomorrow to see what it's like

Oh.. and that “boost” you feel when you upshift is the rotational momentum of the engine and transmission dynamic components being converted into torque as the RPM reduces. Same as dropping a clutch or the F1 kinetic energy recovery system or putting an aircraft prop from fine to feather.

The location of the battery is due to the placement of the Boxer engine. It's square, flat, and in the middle. So the battery goes to the side.

Just got the exact same car and coming from driving stick shift I want to say that I love the cvt, Idk why people hate it but whatever , yes I noticed that the pedal is very sensitive at my car been 15 with 80k I decided to do a tune up and I noticed that the air filter was thicker than most usual OEM filters, now I got this car for my wife so if it was mine I would have started to mod it but is not mine, I ended up getting an k&n filter and believe or not that $60 dollar plastic filter solved that problem, and yes I can attest to that cause I was like no way so i put the old filter and the pedal was touchy, whent back and put the new filter and it was gone, I didn't even said to wife about the filter and she told me that the pedal touchiness was gone, I will be getting one of this cars too soon enough, good video by the way.

that was a very good review. perhaps you should explain more of the engineering of the cars as your channel name suggests.

Thank you for an Excellent review of a vehicle. That's quality material. Cheers

Started subscribing to you. Your reviews are stellar, your narrative engaging. Keep it up!

You should do more car reviews. Very detailed. Different from other car reviewer were they just ride the car and talk about it. While you you go under the car. Hope you can review the new wrx.

Best reviews!,, this guy explain everything!! tks!

I drove the the 4 cylinder Legacy and noticed the same thing when you upshift (in regards to the feeling of a boost), it was very interesting, nothing like a turbo though.

Finally a review by someone that actually knows something about cars, other than how they drive and look.

Wonderful review. I will definitely be buying the turbo version of it.

This was a good review, I own a 13 Legacy 3.6 R limited and I love the car! your dead on about the brake pedal my is the same, the booster and master cly are made by Tokico corp. I've had a lot of friends that own older WRX model and are impressed with my 3.6 power.

What a beautiful vehicle and a review. So in depth and I have never seen anyone take actual tires off. Although, i doubt i can ever buy a car with a CVT. I guess i am still biased and narrow minded when it comes to my transmission.

You have an excellent review demeanor. I am annoyed by half of the reviews that I watch. I am inspired to quit my job and review myself:) After seeing this, I wish I had anteed up and bought the 6-cylinder! I have a 4-cylinder 2016 base model.

Keep on the car reviews, they're great!

And now he does car reviews... THIS is what a car review truly is meant to be about, everything he just implied

I think all the legacys of every year look great

Excellent Review as always man. I have a legacy GT 2009 modded with about 400 to 450 bhp. Forged internals!. I will love to see subaru bringing to us that engine (flat 6) with twin turbos, even little ones in a similar approach of bmw M3 and M4, That in my opinion would be awesome!. Subaru needs to improve power in all their cars! Regards!

This new design is beautiful. I love that color also.

You are the man! More review like this.

Amazing review as always from EE

Interesting to see that Subaru has made a very good CVT. Seems to be preferable than many conventional slushboxs.

Thank you for a very informative review.

Missed an ending... needed some bigger summery or some cool angle shots of the car ;) but I really enjoyed it :) loved the fact that you open up engine bay ;) keep on making these I`d love to see something with audi ...maybe the new S1 or something like that anyway- good luck

This is a damn good review, one of the best

i like the layout of the engine bay, and it looks way better without the plastic cover on the engine^

best rev on the 3.6 legacy !

Maybe I'm a bit biased because I'm an engineer as well, but I absolutely LOVE your reviews. You give insight on the vehicle that no other reviewers do. Keep up the great work!

Would love an STI version of this with some brembo brakes and about 290 horse. I would also love to see in the next gen STI a flat 6 twin turbo.
