TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2013 Subaru Legacy retains its unique position as an affordable, fun-to-drive mid-size sedan with standard all-wheel drive--and adds some standout safety technology.

The 2013 Toyota Camry is no standout for design, but it's more than ever the sensible pick for those who value comfort, value, and frugality above all else.

TCC Likes

Responsive handling
Standard all-wheel drive
Roomy interior, capacious trunk

Cockpit is clearly laid out
Standard Bluetooth across the board
Ten standard airbags

TCC Dislikes

Bland styling with exaggerated detail
2.5i models aren't swift
High-end models fall short on features

Base front seats need more support
Rear seatback doesn't fold flat
Still feels like an appliance
