I know nothing about them, but I do like them. I was considering one a wee while ago.

Manages to crep out from under the Imprezza 'image' too!

Nice looking estate, although don't know anything about them. Surprised it has an auto box though:o  I thought most  performance cars such as Subaru's and Evo's were manuals.

yes that old term " wolf in sheeps clothing"

SOME of them do have the same engine as the high powered Impreza`s.

So some of these estate cars are 4wd 286bhp  :D

Note the rather large exhaust and turbos - i am reckoning this is the said model.

Also the recaros. Imagine going to 60 in sub 6 seconds in an estate  :o :o :o

Ahh the Legacy.

Damn good cars. The 3.0 is also excellent (not as powerful).
Not that popular over here for some reason.
Generally go on forever.

They love them in Oz!

Its what Colin McR was driving before they bought out the Imprezza, shares alot of the same running gear and engine, just in a slightly more grown up coat  :)

If your after that sort of thing look at the Mitsubishi Legnum/ Gallant estate VR4, 2.8 V6 Twin Turbo with a triptronic auto box, basically its what Mitsubisih raced before the Evos
