Thinking of buying the 2017 Subaru Legacy?

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2017 Subaru Legacy for sale by us right now. Here is the 2017 Subaru Legacy for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

What to check on the Legacy

Owners filed 119 complaints with NHTSA, most often about visibility/wiper, electrical system and unknown or other; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done.

Reading the spec sheet

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Who the Legacy suits

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Room inside

Being a large sedan, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.

Rent it for a week first

Rent the Legacy for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent the Legacy for a week and see how it fits your life. If the Legacy is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

Choosing the right one

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

Money matters

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Ready to ask?

A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2017 Subaru Legacy from us first.
