The 2005 Legacy 2.5 GT sedan and wagon at the Subaru display are powered by a new 250-horsepower 2.5-liter DOHC four-cylinder boxer engine that’s turbocharged and intercooled and has a Subaru variable valve system. Maximum torque is 250 lb-ft at 3600 rpm.

More pics please, the car is very sexy looking but i prefer the aggresive look and i think the new wrx sti still has that meaner look.

 

I already told the local dealer that I will trade my EVO when they get a black STi Legacy wagon. The dark wheels will look so sweet on a black wagon.

 

Yeah, win - win for me too. I'm tired of bouncing off the walls of sporty cars. Besides, I live in New Jersey where highway merging is the only time "performance" is needed. Bring on the luxo-sport sedans!

 

A new M5 w/ V 10 would kill a new Legacy STI but an old one with the v-8 would get killed by a legacy STI. The car to beat in the M line is the M3. Even though its not as powerfull its lighter and the chasis is set up for more performance then the M5 which is set up for a supple/performace ride. Check the stats, the M3 is usually a better performace car then the M5. If there was a Legacy Sti with 350-400 hp it would likely be as heavy as an M3 that has 333 hp. So I see the ball in Subarus court. But everyone knows that when a new car that is on paper better then a BMW the bimmer always has a way of winning. This would be very likely when the V 10 M5 comes out. The v 10 is designed to against the likes of sl 55 amg and s 55 amg, good luck to subaru. But who knows subaru might just make the legacy 600 hp and blow away anybody hahaha. I wish but not in our lifetimes.

 

and your point is? the reason to compare a subaru and a BMW is because BMW is basicly the standard in performance cars. If any car company can beat a bimmer then that car is a damn nice one. everyone compared the Japanese Impreza STI with the new M3 so why not compare the Legacy STI with those cars also. Tell me you wouldnt like to get a car that is 40k cheaper and probably just as good as the bimmer, I mean from the performance stand point. If this post seems kind of off subject its because if you read the bottom of page one people are comparing a Legacy STI with a Bimmer so I was replying quickly to that not even realizing that there were 4 more pages of convo. sorry if its off subject.

 

That is very nice... Is that a carbon fiber lip on the front?!
