A little soft for me, but she rolls! It's no STi, but it's very nice to be able to ride in luxury and then romp on 250hp. If I was going to buy a sedan to drive every day, that would be it.

As of right now it is looking like the best candidate for replacement of the tour once im ready to retire it. I love the look of it and the STI engine and AWD kicks ass! I havent been able to drive one yet, as long as that goes well i'm pretty confident ill be looking into purchasing one.
I like the looks and the interior is much nicer than the impreza/wrx/sti and still has some ballz!

Wish my Autoweek would get here on Thursday.  Stupid postal service.
-- 1999 SVT #220 --
In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.

We have a local guy AutoXing one in STU.
He has done coilovers, swaybars, wheels, tires but all streetable stuff no real hard spring rates or anything. But the last time I raced directly against him at a BMW club event I beat him in my stock (including tires) Mazdaspeed Protege.

What kind of a race, ATX or drag? Was it the turbo model Legacy?

I still want it. But there are cars that are more affordable, so time will tell.
I plan to retire the tour to winter driver status within the next 4 years or so.

There is only one type of raceing I do (AutoX) All the new GT models are the turbo and since we are talking about the GT yes it was. He even has the limited package (leather/moonroof/whatever other stuff comes with it)
