The gas mileage situation will undoubtedly turn some buyers away from committing to the 2012 Subaru Legacy 3.6R Limited Sedan. Coming in at 18/25, it may not make sense for consumers in the lower half of the country to accept such fuel economy when its caused by the all-wheel drive capability.The optional navigation package, even on Limited trims, will disappoint. The buttons are small, and the touchscreen is finicky. For splurging the extra amount, we expected something a little nicer upon review.While the 3.6-liter engine provides the necessary power, it can become clunky and noisy around corners at times.The interior trim may not impress buyers looking for something a bit nicer found inside competing models.
