| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.2L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | The Q5 is not cheap. I wanted what the Q5 has and I hope over time I'm pleased with having paid so much. |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 170hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 7-speed automated manual AWD | One of the priciest vehicles in its class, (very) costly options |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.2L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | $3000 extra for Nav |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Subaru Legacy

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD | $5K or more cheaper than similar G37. $10-20K cheaper than similar BMW. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD | Costs about $10,000 less than comparable AWD sedans. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD | The price for quality and performance is unbeatable compared to anything else on the market in my opinion. I got a good lease deal and the residual is strong as well. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD | Cheap, AWD, and the best set of features under 20k after negotiation. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 243hp 2.5L H4 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | value for money |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 243hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD | Great value for $26,000 |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Good value for money especially with in included features. |
| 2005 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 250hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD | IMO, the Legacy offers great value. Just around $20,000 will get you a very capable automobile with some nice convenience and/or luxury features. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD | I got the car for $7000 under MSRP. |
| Price of the Subaru Legacy: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 243hp 2.5L H4 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Not a good value in comparison to other similarly equipped cars especially compared even to luxury marques like Acura. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD | Add a few options and the price quickly climbs to $30,000, a level in which there is a lot of very good competition. The TSX, by contrast, I picked up with more features for only $26k. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD | the parts are expensive, whenever it breaks. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Pricey vs competition. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD | If you buy one of these new keep in mind that it’s going to take a huge depreciation hit in the first couple years, much bigger than other cars in it’s class. |

What Our Members Are Saying about Audi Q5 Materials and Workmanship
| Available Features of the Audi Q5: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.2L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
As many report, Audi's interiors are among the best and the word to describe the Q5's is sumptuous. |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.2L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The Q5 looks and feels well built. The interior is well laid out and is very elegant. |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 170hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 7-speed automated manual AWD |
High quality, well built, no squeaks and rattles after one year of ownership. |
What Our Members Are Saying about Subaru Legacy Materials and Workmanship
| Available Features of the Subaru Legacy: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD |
Good build quality and reliability track recored. Beautiful white pearl paint work. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD |
The materials in this car are top notch. I am shocked by the number of $50000 luxury cars that have cheaper feeling interiors than this car (the latest BMW 3-Series for example). |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Interior is soft touch almost everywhere and also very subdued in styling unlike most newer midsize designs with gaudy overly designed center stacks and tons of faux wood or aluminum. Car interior quality is comparable to car 10k more expensive. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 243hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
Equal to cars costing much more |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
Subaru has always been a well built car. The Materials and workmanship in the interior rivals Audi A4. |
| Materials and Workmanship of the Subaru Legacy: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD |
Too many hard plastics on the interior. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Low quality interior materials. |
