1.Basic information about my car
2004 SUBARU LEGACY BP5 SPEC B RM40K
2.Reasons why I bought this car
This Subaru Legacy was previously belonging to a good friend of mine. I was having an intention of purchasing a car for a fair price of around RM35-40k and had a few options in mind.
3. Car selection process
I had a budget of:RM35-40K
Models that I have considered include:
BMW 325i (E46) MSports, Subaru Legacy BH5
This car of mine was offered for sale by my good friend who knew I intended to add another car to my collection of cars. He offered me the car at a very good price way below market. I made an offer i couldn't resist.
4. User experience
● I have already done 140,000km.
●Subaru Legacy is a very good car for a daily. It has a reliable engine from the EJ20 series. Being a wagon, it was looking like a sleeper but with a mighty beefy powerful 300hp engine under the hood. Many have mistaken it for the mediocre Caldina but no Caldina can come close to the power, handling and feeling of driving a BP5. One of my most awesome ride.
5.Pros& Cons:
Pros:
Well engineered. Strong engine and great handling. With a low CG engine, that is undeniable. I must say, one of the more supreme Subaru range of cars. Eventhough it is a 16 years old design, it has an evergreen looks that had brought Subaru to create a newer generation Levorg based on the BP5 chassis to up keep with the current Subaru wagon cult.
Cons:
none

7.Summary of my story in one paragraph
The Subaru Legacy BP5 is an awesome daily drive with a spacious cabin and a large boot space. The beefy EJ207 with Dual AVCS and force inducted by a newer generation twin scroller turbo is superb for my demand in driving up hills and a great cruiser for long distance traveling.
