Used 2000 Subaru Outback for Sale near Modesto, CA
Is the Subaru Outback hot, dry, sandy, and full of dangerous creatures? Well, no, but like Australia's famed interior landscape, the 2000 Subaru Outback is a more rugged, hardy version of the more suburban Legacy, on whose platform it is based. Previously available as a Legacy trim, the 2000 Outback is now its own separate model in both a Limited sedan and three types of wagon -- base, Limited, and Sport. Along with the Legacy this year, the 2000 Outback adds inches to its length and gets a retuned 2.5-liter boxer H4 engine that now hits 165-hp with either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic.
Full-time all-wheel drive is common to all Subarus, but the 2000 Outback distinguishes itself from the Legacy with an inch higher ground clearance, beefier 16-inch tires, larger foglights, and 2-tone body cladding that's meant to take more punishment. Though not a true off-road vehicle, it can tackle tougher roads and weather than the Legacy. All of the Outbacks come standard with power features, cruise control, daytime running lights, ABS brakes, dual front airbags, and 24-hour road assistance, which is new this year. The Limited sedan and wagon add on side impact bags and more luxury features such as heated leather seats. Rear seats in all trims split-fold 60/40 for up to 68 cubic feet of storage and a cargo cover is standard.
The 2000 Outback also reinforces its body for a more stable and safer ride this year. Wagons are more popular than sedans, for the extra headroom, cargo space, and roof rack. The Sport wagon is actually based on the Impreza, and is sometimes included in that lineup. It has a less powerful 2.2-liter, 142-hp H4, and this year it gets a rear spoiler and cruise control. Rugged durability is what attracts 2000 Outback owners to this SUV alternative. Because it sits lower to the ground, it is more stable, and its car platform makes it easier to handle. However, drivers feel it needs more power, better gas mileage, and stronger brakes. There were also issues this year with blown head gaskets and failed oxygen sensors.
4.5 Overall rating
(34 reviews)If you live in the mountains, in lots of snow or just need a super reliable vehicle, own a Subaru!!! It's commonly known that they last well over 300,000 miles and while the repairs can be expensive they are worth the investment for the future. They are not only super safe, really reliable, sporty and fun to drive, they are cars you can trust your teenager in as well as drive your newborn home knowing they may some day learn to drive that same vehicle.
the subaru is the best thing on the road, good gas, great get up and go, loads of cargo room, rides like a dream! Gets it in the snow too! Would not trade it for the world! The all wheel drive and breaking system is wonderful!
A good daily driver. Easy to drive conservatively, and good on gas, with an 18 gallon tank, it gives you quite a range. The automatic transmission is a bit slugish, but you can manually shift with 1,2,3 and D on the stick. Hold the road extremely well, and can drive quick around the corners if you push it. Only problem I've had with it was a leak from the sun roof, but was repaired in an afternoon.
Imagine a car with a multiple personality. This car is fast, it has a flat four boxer engine, giving it lots of torque and a great sound. It's spacious and comfortable. It's got all the toys - it even has heated wiper blades. The handling is very good for a wagon - four wheel drive and decent clearance means you can go where no man (in a wagon) has gone before. It's a Subaru, with legendary reliability. I've had this car for about a year and a half. It's got 106,000 miles and I'm expecting it to hit 200,000 before an uneconomic component failure. Oh - and it's not a volvo.
Performance is peppy for a heavy car. Brake response is strong and stopping power is great. Handling is good, turn radius is what you'd expect from a car that size. Build quality is good. Materials are nice, hold up well. I think the styling is very nice. Cost of ownership is a little high. Parts aren't cheap and there are some chronic parts of subaru's that aren't a matter of if but when they will fail. Gas mileage isn't great but it is a heavy car with a 4 cylinder. Fun factor is great. I enjoy that I can take the car almost anywhere. Im not afraid to pull off the road anywhere or drive through a snow storm.
