    Yeah?

    I think I've seen a version of the Edmunds article but I think it was a little different. I'm really not feeling the idea of a Legacy (type car) being competitive on the dirt though.

    not even that man, the fact that itll be a damn hatch back ONLY ... the fact that its a bit longer will make it look better but a hatch back that long would look like a damn wagon... any thoughts?
     
  4. The mobile mag one is INCORRECT. That is NOT the new Legacy. The 2008 is just a even more re-designed Legacy. The weird coupe thingy been circulating around the LegacyGT forums anyway. There are more pictures the the one below..I just don't feel like uploading pictures right now.

    (I SPY flappy paddles for Autos! Well..JDM)

    Thus i'm sure the 2008 WRX should be a different platform if it is hatchback..

    That black one on the left looks pretty sexy.

    EDIT: actually, it kind of reminds me of an is300.

    told you
    looks like a 92x

    left over parts from SAAB thta should not be wasted
    slap it on the 2008 and there you go :)

    moose Infina Mooooooose!

    The 9-2X is a far better looking vehicle, so let's hope you're right. :)

    I love hatchbacks though. I could never own a five door or wagon type car, but that's just me I guess.

    Now a three door... I'd take that over a coupe or four door any day. Of course if I lived in a place wiht a nice climate I'd take a convertable over them all. Namely an M3 convertable. :)
     
  27. Notice the Golf GTi in the background...hehe.

    Doe! Being built in Indiana instead of Japan according to Edmunds. I have talked to a guy that owns a Suby built at this plant and he was less than happy with it, lol. He said he never had a single problem out of his WRX then the onebuilt in Indiana has been back to dealership like 10 times in a year for issues, lol.
