2010 Legacy

[inski]

I got to see the 2010 Legacy today. Freaking Awesome! The one I saw had a 3.5L boxer 6 in it. Its going to make a lot of BMWs feel inadequate.

nice. wanna see the turbo'd 6 speed GT..

 

[inski]

They didn't have one. They said the six speed for the 10LGT is smaller, lighter, tighter although the 10Legacy looks bigger/bulgier.. Hopefully Maine dealers start getting them early/mid June.

 

[Nate]

is it as strong as the sti 6 speed? would be nice to have this in all the LGTs now. reason i might be eventually upgrading to an 08 specb.

 

[inski]

time will tell. Not any real intel about its ruggedness yet.

 

[Chris]

I have heard the 6speed is about the same strength as the 5speed to save on weight... but no one really knows yet. Or can't talk about it yet.

I still think the pics of the 2010 legacy are ugly... I need to see it in person though.

Just found this on R&T site.

"The GT comes equipped with a 6-speed manual, but this time it's borrowed from a diesel, which means it has extra robustness."

thursday's cell phone pics.

Thanks for the pics!

I don't like the new front end. My favorite is still the 05+.

 

[inski]

yeah, if I had one I'd black out the chrome and head lights.

^^ thanks! nice to see them compared

 

[Stein]

Thanks Dan!

It actually doesn't look as bad to me as it used to.

I still think I like the old ones better.

 

[inski]

Ah crap! Looks like the Love Boat when you do that.

...or a big fat cow.

 

[Nate]

that's a nice 08 gt..... and dang that car looks big sitting next to the 08.. love boat is right.

side note: man i want an 08 specb..... BAD!

That looks like the size of a Ford 500

I prefer my generations size and sleek looks
