Of course, no 6-speed 3.0R for the stupid lazy Americans.

Those lights in the rear bumper are kinda weird, I wonder what the purpose is.

I know!

Plays_With_toys · 01-08-2007, 02:17 AM

I like all the body work, but it is too tall. The whole car looks bigger. With a drop it'd look killer. I like the smaller brake lights, though the bigger headlights and foglights really make the front end look huge.

ScoobyFreak · 01-08-2007, 03:13 AM

The new tails are nice... excluding the sedan's bumper lights, but that's it. Other than that, I think it's a step backward.

Anyway, I still think the best looking Legacy body design went out with the arrival of the 2000MY.

...Okay, the wheels are nice too...

MYfirst00 · 01-08-2007, 07:41 AM

I like it a lot. Headlights are far much better than the previous version. From the side, it has the styling of a BMW. And the ploshed WRX wheels look great IMHO.

Pat

I'm guessing rear fogs.

After looking it over a little more, I definately thin this is a step in the wrong direction. I was hoping for something more aggressive. The profile and rear remind me of a Ford Taurus/500. Not good.

IronMonkeyL255 · 01-08-2007, 10:36 AM

I kinda like it, except for the front grill. It goes down too far, IMHO.

97obw · 01-08-2007, 10:52 AM

the current one looks better

melayout · 01-08-2007, 10:54 AM

The 5EAT rev matches on downshifts.

Christopher Marks · 01-08-2007, 01:59 PM

I like it, though the bumper is a little better on the european ones. I like the new taller grill, much more sophisticated styling all around.

None of this should surprise anyone though, this is what we saw last year for every other market.

rougeben83 · 01-08-2007, 02:46 PM

Needs more hoodscoop.

If the rumors of Subaru making a turbo H6 are true...it may not be so non-functioning

Oh man would that be sweet

flanders · 01-08-2007, 07:51 PM

I'd be happy with a 300 HP h6 without turbo.

I don't see that at all, but even so, anything is better than another Camry clone.

Overall, I like it. If anything, the styling is almost too conservative.

AWDBat · 01-08-2007, 09:33 PM

Ugh. I agree with MitchGT - too much like a Taurus. I'm definitely going to go ahead with my '97 Legacy swap.

Wiscon_Mark · 01-08-2007, 10:02 PM

I see a hint of 500 in the taillights, yes. But I'm willing to look past it...

I still say they should've kept the solid tail setup across the back because that's kind of a Legacy trademark...

whoosh · 01-08-2007, 10:32 PM

i already have the rims.

the finish is very nice.
