Subaru dealers, like many
Subaru dealers, like many major auto brands, have been running at close to 100% sales efficiency month over month for pushing a year and a half, meaning pretty much everything that hits the lot in a given month sells almost immediately. While I don't think anyone is going to claim that the Legacy is Subaru's hottest model or that the mid-size sedan segment is making a comeback, the reason Legacy sales have fallen has everything to do with production, not demand. We usually see about one Legacy for every 10-15 Outbacks and Foresters on most allocations, and the fact that customers who would buy a Legacy are instead purchasing a different Subaru model has more to do with the inability to wait 7 months for a car to come in than anything else.
