Default Any news about the Legacy B4?

You know...in case the insurance for the STi is at a "rape level" price. A turbo Legacy would be a nice substitute for those who find the STi too "racy" and prefer a more refined but powerful car.



Thanks.

Rumors were that we would be getting a 2.5L H4 Turbo instead of a twin turbo and there is a possibility of a H6 non turbo model. I'm betting that Subaru is using the current WRX STi as the testbed for the B4. Maybe Subaru will toss the USDM another gift with a H6 turbo? Who knows?

I bet they will lean toward the H6 non turbo unless there is a real demand for the B4 or there is some serious competition.

A turbo legacy is coming, likely 2.5T... but after the new legacy body style.

That may be the way to go for me. The STi too beastly and wild. I'd use all 300 hp on each gear.

With a more refined yet powerful car, I'll drive more properly and less spirited than I would with an STi.
