punched up when they put the VIN in at the dealer. But the car says
Legacy on it nowhere.
So....do I look under "Legacy Products" or "Outback Products"?

alignment. Alignment done, drove off, car was just not right... turns
out the tech set up angles for the first Outback looking thing he
found on his computer's list (Outback Sport) vs going under the
Legacy menu to find the flavor of Outback.
Got it right the 2nd time finally.

Some things show up both places, some in one or the other. There are few
(if any) pieces that are only specific to the Outback. If you aren't
sure, email the vendor or use the provided form on some sites.
http://www.subaruparts.com/parts.php is one of those.

The TITLE and dealership I bought it from say it's a Legacy Outback. When they punched up the VIN for the title, it stated it's a Legacy. But shouldn't there be a "LEGACY" namebadge on the exterior of the car on the back? There isn't - all it says is OUTBACK on the back hatch. It's got the winter package (heated seats, side mirrors and wiper blades), single CD player, no sun/moonroof, cloth seats (no leather), and wood grain console trim. I see no mention on the car itself of LEGACY. I'd like to know what I got, as I want to order some accessories, and you have to choose what vehicle you need parts for, and some places have both Legacy and Outback when I got to 2003 Outback section. There are TWO Outback lines, one's the Outback based on the Legacy (full-size) and the Outback Sport based on the Imprezza compact. Both are just trim/option packages. |
The bright bulbs in marketing could have called one Outback and
another Outfront or Outsmart or something to disambiguate
