For 2008, Subaru has simplified the Legacy/Outback line-up with the deletion of the Legacy Wagon and the Outback Sedan. That only leaves the Legacy Sedan and the Outback Wagon in the dwelling. In our opinion, the Outback Sedan is good riddance, especially for Subaru as it performed poorly in sales. Also, for the hefty price, we would just upgrade to a AWD sport-ute. The Legacy Wagon, however, will be missed as it was the only station wagon in America that aggregated performance and practicality.
The Legacy Wagon is still on sale and going strong in Japan. According to Subaru, this move is an attempt to differentiate the Legacy and the Outback more. Unfortunately, it makes sense.
