2008 Subaru Legacy
Summary

The Subaru Legacy delivers a refined drive that's surprisingly agile in a sensibly sized package that won't bust the budget. Lower trim levels are high on value, while the spec.B is devoted to enthusiasts who still need sedan practicality and all0wheel drive. The new 3.0R Limited delivers the compact luxury you'd expect from an Acura TSX, Audi A4 or Volvo S40, with six-cylinder refinement, all-wheel drive the Acura doesn't offer, and a competitive price.

Sam Moses drove the Legacy GT Limited and Spec.B models in Quebec; G.R. Whale drove 2.5i and 3.0R models in Nevada and California.
