Miles Overview
The 2009 Legacy is Subaru's mid-size sedan, the one that shares its all-wheel-drive platform with the Outback wagon. It's a secure, sure-footed sedan that holds its line in rain and snow, though the base engine feels a bit strained on steep highway merges. Inside, the Legacy offers a quiet, comfortable cabin with a roomy trunk, but rear-seat legroom is tight for taller adults. Some owners note the head gaskets can be a weak point on this generation, often showing wear around 120,000 miles. The 2.5i Special Edition adds alloy wheels and a power moonroof over the base 2.5i, making it the value pick for buyers who want those extras without stepping up to the Limited. Its 2.5L I4 makes 170 horsepower and pairs with a five-speed manual, giving you a deliberate, manual-only driving experience that's rare in mid-size sedans by 2009. The Special Edition's standard moonroof is the only way to get one on a non-Limited Legacy, so you're trading leather upholstery for open-air driving.
