Mach V Dan Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Blitzen official web site Personally, the styling is not for me. I think the wheels are homely, and the front looks like a bad rendition of an Audi A4. But hey, it's different. The price isn't bad, either. --Dan Mach V FastWRX.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IwannaSportSedan Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 three revisions on the Blitzen, (04, 05, now 06) at least 2 WR Limited, STI tuned limited edition, 2.0 GT Spec B production option, a history with the Blitzen, RSK, and S401... And the best they can do in the US is 500 Spec B cars... The USDM Spec B is a fine car, but Japan certainly sees the Legacy as quite a fashionable sport sedan and touring wagon. If FHI and SOA would get the hint that this kind of boutique marketing might do well in the US (with appropriate pricing and levels of equipment to compete with the rest of the market, and some advertizing dollars...) and bring some of these models, or at least some of this equipment as options... Legacy would rise above an also-ran beside the Outback, and every other USDM four-door car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebpda9 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 that black sedan tries too much too look as an audi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKEBRAVO Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I think they both look sweet. You gotta remember its only been five years since Subaru started any sort of redesign, prior to that all models looked homely. If you can afford College, you probably don't need to go.

rfd425 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Personally, I don't know how anyone can draw much of a conclusion from those pics. I'd prefer they lose the special-effects lighting, and just show some good clear 360* pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydude Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 +1, effin fugly. I did a Yen to Dollar conversion of the most expensive one they had on the website and here is the damage: 3,801,000.00 JPY = $32,613.54 USD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwannaSportSedan Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I wish the USDM Spec B were that price, and don't tell me it can't be done, as a Blitzen is a 2.0GT Spec B underneath, plus the fancy clothes... I could care less about the wheels. I would probably put RG-Rs on it anyway, and save the snowflake wheels for driving through the snowflakes!

tytek Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 i hate the way USDM '8mph bumpers' look - on any car for that matter. that is one of the reasons why i like the blitzen ones. the grill looks a little too ghetto/escalade like - but i like that it looks somewhat audiesque (or alfa romeo like) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCDetails Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Blech... I don't like it at all. That front is wrong because the grille goes way too far out. The back bumper is all wrong too. I'd never buy it no matter what is under the hood. It's just not purdy enough. Bring on the Legacy STI TT super sedan! _________________________________________ “Cleanliness becomes more important as godliness becomes more unlikely.” O C D E T A I L S .

motion_157 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 I think those rims are wicked...anyone know if you can buy those, or if they're new to this legacy package? Actually, scratch that request...I saw one of the pictures straight on, they don't look that great. On an angle they looked good, but not so much directly from the side.
