Car Forum / Subaru Cars / October 2006Car Model Confusion
I'm confused. My insurance company calls my car a "Legacy Outback." Yet all I can find on my car is the work "Outback." It's the 2003 H3.0 Outback. If it was the 2.5 engine, would that make it into the "Legacy Outback." Al >I'm confused. My insurance company calls my car a "Legacy Outback." Yet >all I can find on my car is the work "Outback."

Yours is the former even though it may not have Legacy badges on it. The smaller Outback Sport is Impreza-based. So the classification depends on the platform not the engine. > So the classification depends on the platform not the engine. The "Outback" designation is essentially on options package, as Mulder points out, there's a Legacy or Impreza holding the optional parts together. The Impreza version has also been known as the "Outback Sport", with no mention of Impreza. This lets dealers advertise $17,000 "Outbacks". 8^) Yes, it's confusing... <G> Outback = suspension package + some body cladding Think of it like Chevy's Z71 package. > > So the classification depends on the platform not the engine. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Yes, it's confusing... <G> > Outback = suspension package + some body cladding > Think of it like Chevy's Z71 package.
