2007 Legacy Spec B?

I just checked out the Spec B in Drive, I'm not sure if this has been posted yet. Anyway, it looks solid. Changes for the 2007 model = 6spd, STi style interior with blue escane and charcoal leather, VDC, tire pressure monitoring system, and SI-Drive (Subaru Intelligent Drive) with Intelligent Mode (improves drivability in low traction driving conditions and fuel economy by as much as 10 percent), sport (provides a more linear feeling with quicker throttle response; it feels like the 2006 Legacy 2.5GT, only smoother), sport sharp (performance improved over the 2006 Legacy 2.5GT, with quicker throttle response and delivery of engine power, narrowing the gap between it and the Impreza WRX STi). I think it's safe to say that Subaru may be giving us a full fledged Legacy STi!

It looks pretty hot.

As far as the Impreza being able to take on the M3, I think it has already been able to do so. The problem with Turbo vehicles is that they can match and sometimes beat the times of its rivals (In this case being the M3) from a standstill to 60 mph or even the quarter mile.
Ofcourse anything above 150 miles an hour is another story.

The only thing(s) worthwhile to me on the '07 are the 6-speed and the powered seats with memory. The SI drive is just gimmicky, and it's not really adding any horsepower, just adjusting throttle response. Now, if they bring over a real Legacy STi with 300hp+, Brembos, 6-speed, etc... I'll trade in my '06 in a heartbeat.

JDM front bumpers on those cars. Looks much better than the fat US bumpers they put on the Legacy.

That car is hot, really like the bumper too. The only thing I want more than my RS is an '07 spec b.
