Thinking of buying the 2016 Subaru Legacy?
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2016 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. This page sets out the 2016 Subaru Legacy for buyers, in plain words.
A buyer's checks
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Owners filed 147 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, unknown or other and visibility/wiper; have those parts checked. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
What the figures tell you
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Who rents the Legacy
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
What to expect from the Legacy
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.
Try before you buy
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Try the Legacy on your commute, then decide. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. 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.
Running costs
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
