Your age and mine must be pretty different. Either that, or we have some loyalty issues.
The new Legacy GT is one of several that lines up at the lights against the 6s. None of them may be as dedicated at handling as the "zoom-zoom" brand (not all of America goes AutoXing), but as far as painting black lines on the pavement, the Honda Accord EX and Nissan Altima 3.5SE will certainly give the 6 a run for its money. Hell, 6s little brother, the 3 isn't all that far behind with a few key modifications.
Bottom line is that there's only so many turns you can find on public roads to experience such a vast handling advantage.
