PeterJMC Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 I like seeing more articles about the Legacy. More people know what's up now :-) Shouldn't this be in News? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilT Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Hope they get the new LGT or Spec B with SI-Drive, then hopefully they'll have a few good things to say. Like ?? Oh my, what a nice knob ?? Double Award Winning Legacy GT Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kleggo Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 i stopped right here and read no further "Legacy is the last pretty car to be offered from the Paul Hogan/Lance Armstrong-backed manufacturer" How the fock does Lancey poo back Subaru? i'm pretty sure that SOA paid him to market their cars, not the other way around. sheesh be safe kleggo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWD_Rules3830 Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 seems to me these guys just copied someting right out of car magazine or edmunds. I love my car ... basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekthered08 Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Originally posted by IGN: The Legacy isn't the balls-out performance sedan that the 3.2-liter A4 or MazdaSpeed6 is, as the Legacy is a much milder ride. Yeah...I stopped reading at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donswhitegt Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 The auto does need a little re-programing, but when you learn to drive around the quirks it is a fun fast car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 How can one take an article seriously that doesn't even use their own pictures...the pics they use have a manual? The trunk lid no GT or Subaru badges? My vB Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTGT Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 wow these are really stupid people haha. "driving around the city the car shifts early, but when we had the open road and floored it we would feel the power." I guess they didn't put it in sport mode or toy with the manual mode. Amazing that flooring a car makes it faster. "those that don't care too much about performance won't be let down by the auto tranny" Ouch i hate ign haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 It seems these magazines are completely clueless to the fact that with just a few mods on the LGT.. its a low 13 sec 1/4 mile car, or even high 12's.. I believe that is as fast as a stock new Corvette?? I think a Corvette runs a 13 flat. I dont know, as long as magazines say its not fast there will continue to be people at the track with there mouths wide open going "what the hell kinda car is that??" and I personally find that quite satisfying.

donswhitegt Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 The review was a little harsh, edmunds had similar comments about the 5EAT. The Legacy is a great car and probably the best wagon out there for the money. But the 5EAT needs some help. Stage 1 will probably sort the whole thing out.

Euclid Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Who cares what IGN says, they're a video game news source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Who cares what IGN says, they're a video game news source. Exactly...I work for a video game company and it troubles me that so many people rely on the them for VG news if this is what kind of editorials they are moving too. Quantity not quality...

psucaptainkickass Posted April 21, 2006 Author Share Posted April 21, 2006 Well I have been going to ign.com since it was n64.com. Granted times were different back then with videogame news, but I still go there just out of habit. Their news quality definitely is sub par now. I get most of my news from slashdot anyways.

AWD_Rules3830 Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 They are video games geeks, how good can their news be ... "tonight a man suffered a heart attack with Laura Croft TOMB RAIDER took her top off" I love my car ... basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIZARD Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 WTF?????????Who F_cking cares what a VIDEO GAME mag or website has to say about ANYTHING besides Warcraft IV or Zelda XXIII??????

psucaptainkickass Posted April 21, 2006 Author Share Posted April 21, 2006 No offense taken, just thought I would share what other people are saying about our cars. Its best to be well informed when some poser who religiously reads IGN starts talking shit. Its kinda like in Good Will Hunting when Will academically bitch slaps the smartass in the bar. Will just knew all about the sources that the smartass was using, and used it to his advantage to knock out the guy's legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishakir Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 I didn't think there was even that big of a difference between the MT and the AT? Is it really that profound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DickDastardly00 Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Who cares what IGN says, they're a video game news source. +1 And they suck at reviewing videogames too. They used to be good a long time ago, but that was then. ♪Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery; None but ourselves can free our minds.♫ -Bob Marley, Redemption Song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elpete77 Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 I didn't think there was even that big of a difference between the MT and the AT? Is it really that profound? I test drove an auto first, if they had no manual wagons I wouldn't have bought the Legacy. I thought there was a huge difference in response to down shifting at the very least.
