Hello folks: Well I hate SUV's, but I need a bad weather vehicle, and I dont want to buy German, so that leaves Subaru. So Im looking for a used 2.5L outback or Legacy GT Wagon. Ive got several questions, however.

1. Between the Years 1995-1998 were there any major modifications made to the design of the AWD system or did all years behave the same and have the same design.
2. Are there any common problems with these cars as they approach 90-100k miles?
3. Did the Limited/Non-Limited editions have any differences in terms of drivetrain, or were they only different in terms of cosmetics (i.e. badges, weather band radio, heated seats & mirrors and block heater).

Thanks.
