With a few thousand dollars in upgrades...

...and a lot cheaper than the E55

Beating it = priceless.

The scooby motor just has so much potential!

wow thats sick like they probably hit like 100mph right on the street.... sick speed. and of the the line the suburu would have it and keep goin

but i'd still take the benz.... can't beat luxury and its not that much slower and it beats most other cars on the road lol

wait dude was that your legacy?

benz = german = problematic. i'll take a subaru over that any day.

Seemed like scooby always had a bit of a head start but in the end it started to pull on the benz anyways.

As if a highly modded, high horsepower turbo car wouldn't be problematic...

Besides, Benzes are bulletproof mechanically. It's electrical problems that MAY become a problem after the car is off warranty, but if you have enough money to afford a new one in the first place, you should be able to sell this one and buy another. They're expensive to fix when you have to fix them, but they're not problematic.

Not my leggy, just someone that posted.

The FMIC and bigger turbo on the leggy do not make it more problematic. And it still keeps the day to day driveability. The engine in the GT is very robust, and even people with mild tunning are reporting 13 second runs on the quarter mile.

Rumors are that they tweaked the 07 a little more to make it even faster stock.

My point is that with just a little money and the right pieces you can make your car really fast.

Dyno charts do not lie.

nice sleeper, i like how it doesnt draw any attention

Bah! The Benz weighs over 4000 lbs and the Subaru weighs 3365. That's a huge difference. What did the benz have done, if anything? If it shedded some weight or had a smaller pulley installed, it would be a better race.

The E55's are sick as hell but they're too heavy, the GT's are sick as hell I love the way they look and the way they drive is absolutely smooth. Nice vid

lol u guys will laugh at me y i wouldn't get a legacy gt.... it has day time runnign lights, i want HID's lol, anyway that can be disabled most likely, there is some special spec b edition that has a knub for like performance tuned on it or sometin

you could always turn OFF the DRLs...i don't know how, but i'm sure someone's done it.

it's most probably a cut and add an switch deal of 1 wire

I run HID's and in the 05-06 all it takes is to disconnect a plug, on the 07 you need to cut one wire.

And the H7 projectors on the legacy are quite nice for HID's without doing a retro:

ya its a nice a car

yes, though i don't know who had it first. it's a boxer motor, or a "pancake" motor...also known as an H-4(because of the way it's arranged).

yeah I thought is was a Boxer Engine, not a Boxter engine. I thought they were only similar because of the type of engine they are. Not the exact same, are they?

no, they're not identical...but then again, ford and chevy V8s aren't identical, either.

Maybe check the Subaru H6 engine and see how alike they are? They just announced the first H6 Legacy for the united states for 08.

Basically a 3.0 liter H6 in a legacy.

lol Ok. I didn't catch it was a mistype. My bad. Yeah so basically we're saying pretty much the same thing then. Same design of the motor.

an H6? Nice.

essentially, yes.

H6 was in the SVX...it's a damned shame they only offered an automatic in that vehicle.

Now here is a video of the GOTO:Racing legacyteraing it up at the Barber Motorsports Park in Alabama.

Because of an electronical glitch they had to start at the very back of the field, so there is a lot of passing.

It is a big file (193 MB) with a good 22 Minutes. They can only pass after the green flag, so it takes a little bit to get started, but the amount of cars it passes (Acura's, Mazdas, BMW's, Domestics) is crazy!
