    I really think the US Legacy GT 08 look is kinda weird, it looks like some sort of demented guppy. I still like the car but i'm confused.


    The aussie front end looks a lot nicer

    I like US version better. Plus US version will complement more airflow to FMIC as well.

    We have stricter frontal impact laws so we get a different front bumper cover and beam.
