Buying the 2000 Subaru Legacy

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2000 Subaru Legacy for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is the 2000 Subaru Legacy for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

Before you sign for the Legacy

There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

Under the hood

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Good uses for the Legacy

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Room inside

As a large sedan, it is easy to drive and park in the city.

Rent it for a week first

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the Legacy for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Drive the Legacy on your commute before you commit to it.

Picking a year and a trim

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2000 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.

The cost of driving it

A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Still deciding?

Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.

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 2000 Subaru Legacy from us first.

Buying the 2000 Subaru Legacy

Does CarmaCars sell the 2000 Subaru Legacy?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a 2000 Subaru Legacy before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Does the 2000 Subaru Legacy have recalls?

NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for it, in the table on this page. Ask for proof each was fixed.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
