VOICE OVER: Miranda Lightstone
There's a reason Subarus are class leaders in the realm of all-wheel drive, and the brand new Legacy only continues that tradition with a vengeance. Though its exterior is frightfully drab, the interior is exciting. Well designed and easy to manage, this car's gizmos and gadgets are in all the right places. The car handles well and sticks to the road, and that's it's real selling point. Don't be fooled by this sedan's mundane exterior; we'll show you what this Subaru's got to offer. In this video, http://www.WatchMojo.com spends a week behind the wheel of the 2011 Subaru Legacy.

First, I’ll get the fact that the Legacy had a CVT out of the way: Argh! Alright, now on to business. Every Subaru features symmetrical all-wheel drive; it is what makes a Subaru a Subaru; it’s what makes them so phenomenal on the road, no matter what the road conditions. Subarus stick to the road. They hand with aplomb in rain, shine, snow, sleet, mud, gravel; whatever you wish to throw under its wheels it will quickly deal with. CVT aside, that’s what makes the Legacy such a great car to drive. It’s not as fast or soulful as the WRX or STI, but it behaves the way a Subaru should -- and for that, kudos to Subaru. There’s something about a Subaru AWD system that’s unlike any other. They truly are leaps and bounds above other “AWD” cars and trucks. Despite facelifts for most of its models year after year, Subaru has kept one thing constant: their AWD system. Let’s hope that remains for years to come.
