Joe Boxer Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Hmmm.... *Non US spec bumpers and 3.0R nose *Those look like GT spec brakes to me *STI scoop - is that hood CF? Or is it just a matte paint, hard to tell maybe a 3.0R coming? That'll be a non-starter agains the competetive V6 cars without a pretty good power jump. Maybe they're just hot-weather testing a Euro car? again, multiple sources have noted that there will be a 3.0R Legacy for the USDM in 2007. whether or not it happens remains to be unseen, but I have read it and heard it from more than one source.

AK Wagon Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Stock brakes... with a warehouse full of parts why wouldn't SOA put decent brakes on a STI test car?!?! STI power definitely needs better braking power, especially in this heavier car. Very suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWP-LegacyGT Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I had heard before that the 3.0R was a distinct possibility in '07 for the Legacy. Now, as far as a larger displacement, turbocharged setup...that would most likely come in '08 or later (I think). --Joey Correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShockerGT Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Sorry guys that's my car, I never posted pictures because you guys would laugh at my ricey hood with a custom STi scoop on my n/a 2.5i. I had the 3.0R bumper imported from Japan and I was intending on getting the hood painted pretty soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTGT Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 That is a huge hoodscoop. Ugly as it is, subaru is up to no good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravisS Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Something like this would be a bit better IMO http://www.cyber-sport.co.jp/image/p_bulge01s.jpghttp://www.cyber-sport.co.jp/image/p_bulge02s.jpg http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37991 It is intesting though, I wonder if it could be a turbo H6? WRX STI destroyer for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon in CT Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 They taped on a honkin' big hood scoop and made a few cosmetic changes in the front because that's where they wanted you to focus your attention. They're actually testing the new Legacy SPT exhaust system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesb Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Clearly the car started out as a euro 3.0R 3.0R headlights and front bumper non-us spec taillamps w/amber signal no "subaru" badge on left rear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewIles Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I don't think this is a 3.0R from Europe. All 3.0R's in UK are fitted with a sunroof as standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Effin Ponderous Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 FORGET ABOUT RUMORS...I brought my car in for an alignment, and the shop contacted Subaru for the alignment spec on the Legacy STI and they sent them to him. My car is the first north american Legacy tuned to the STI specs!!! I debadged it and threw an STI badge on it, so that was what he thought the car was...

Opie Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 I guess either... A: Just testing an H6 Sedan variant B: Testing the next generation Impreza powerplant....hidden in a Legacy platform to confuse.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
