lh0628 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Hi all, I test drove a 07 2.5i today. The car has 75K miles on it:confused: One owner, lots highway, etc. It has some peeled paint spots on the front bumper, some scratches on the rear bumper. A few dings and scratches here and there. Overall the car looks to be in good condition though. The price is about $10K. I ran a car fax report, one odd thing. The tires have been replaced 5 times:eek: It shows the regular dealer maint. etc. Two accidents: Damage reported in Regina, SK Involving rear impact Rear of vehicle primarily damaged Left side primarily damaged Damage reported in Regina, SK Vehicle involved in collision hit while parked Rear of vehicle primarily damaged They don't seem to be serious damages, what do you guys think? It drove OK I thought, I'm just wondering if there are any known problems with the 07 2.5i? I drove an 02 TS wagon before, so I'm familiar with Subarus in general but not Legacys. I was going to buy a 04/05 Forester XT, which would cost me about $15K. But I saw this deal and thought it's a good price. I'd appreciate your guys' input on anything, thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lh0628 Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 I'm in Canada. That's a good price for a Limited XT. Why would you pass it just because it looks lowered? How does XT's interior feel? The legacy interior felt quite a bit nicer than the Impreza I had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnetdropout Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I dont think I'd purchase that 2.5i. I have an 07 with 30k miles and runs great. There's already been two accidents and the tires have been changed 5 times? Im sure you can find a healthier 05-07 Legacy 2.5i for around 14k. Shoot for the XT. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
