SubieDriver Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Ok then.... we're back on track! So have they announced a 3.0R turbo yet??? Or maybe supercharged? Should we call Cobb Tuning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegGTLT Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 What's the color spectrum going to be like? PLEASE tell me some sort of color comes back into the mix. Not just blue/gray/black/white... PLEASE!!!! Please PM joeleodee For All Site Questions.

NovaWolverine Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 I'm almost positive Cobb has said something about developing a turbo or supercharger, AFAIK, they were already in progress w/ that, but it may be with the 3.6 in the Tribeca, not the 3.0, but I don't know.

Yes, they've supercharged a Tribeca. I'm assuming the engine bay in the Legacy is different and would require different pipe routing. I'm sure they'll do it soon after the 3.0Rs start selling here.

Syndicate Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 ...hmmm, I wonder what the '08 GT looks like and if there are any must have new features. Kind of glad I've waited thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenMonkey Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Agreed, unfortunately for me, I want a wagon and am scared that by the time I will know if there is going to be a GT wagon for 08, it will be too hard to fine one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHLEG Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Over in the 2008 Subaru Legacy 3.0R (USDM) thread I posted about the 2.5 LGT wagon...looks like it's dead for '08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Anybody need pix of anything in particular at the show?? I'm headed there this evening. I'll be sure to take pix of the Subie's and anything else that is interesting, but if you've got specific requests I'll try to accommodate them. I will, however, need some pointers and recommendations on how to host pictures on one of the photo sites and them link them here. I've never tried that, so if someone can PM me with some pointers I would appreciate it! Seek first to understand, then to be understood. In other words: SEARCH before you post!

LegGTLT Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 1. Anybody need pix of anything in particular at the show?? I'm headed there this evening. I'll be sure to take pix of the Subie's and anything else that is interesting, but if you've got specific requests I'll try to accommodate them. 2. I will, however, need some pointers and recommendations on how to host pictures on one of the photo sites and them link them here. I've never tried that, so if someone can PM me with some pointers I would appreciate it! 1. YES! Up close shots of the front bumper. Straight on, side view, and both side angle views (45 degree shot on). Level shots too, the kind where you crouch down to get on the same level as the bumper. There is a thread on whether we have the same bumper as the JDM style bumpers. THANKS! 2. To post pics up, download them on your computer, click advanced on the bottom, click "manage attachments", and then click the browse buttons to choose which pics to upload. Just make sure they're not too big. 250kb is the max or 1024x768 res. THANKS! Please PM joeleodee For All Site Questions.

CheersPossible sites for hosting your pictures are http://www.smugmug.com (not free) or http://www.freefilehosting.org/pupload/ (free). We don't necessarily need more bumper shots of the US 2008 Legacy. But, if it's not too inconvenient, can you go to Japan and get some hi-res shots of their bumpers?

LegGTLT Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 Ahhhh! DOH! I totally missed that... Go to photobucket.com or imageshack.us and choose to upload your pictures.

mccorry Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Regarding the NAIAS.... I'm going on Saturday the 13th.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Well, I got there late and wasn't able to check out everything, but overall I thought it was pretty good this year. It was pretty much empty tonight, which is one nice thing about being able to go on the 'Industry Day'. The Subaru display was very underwhelming, as usual. My biggest diappointment was that they did not have an STi Limited, and I think those look fantastic. The only Legacy's they had were an '07 Spec B and the one '08 that was up on the pedestal. I took pix, but they aren't going to impress anyone - same shots that have already been posted. The 08's were up on turntables so I was not able to get - or even look - inside. Talking to the reps there, they confirmed (again) that there will be no LGT wagons and now OB sedans for '08. And they weren't able to confirm any color choices either, although the one guy indicated that the Legacy sedan would be available in the gold OB color. For brochures, they only had one big one that covered the entire 07 Subaru line and one small one with very limited info on the '08s - VERY limited. So I don't really have anything to add to the general knowledge base - sorry. I'll post up some pix tomorrow. If I had any interesting ones I'd get them up right away. Overall, my favorites were probably the Ford Interceptor concept and the new Audi R8. Again, I didn't make it through all the displays, but there were definitely some other cool concepts there. The WRX folks might be interested in a Chevy concept that was set up right across from the Subaru display - looked like a 'Street Rally' vehicle. More later...

Scooter Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Hold for pix. Not that I really want to start another debate about the front bumpers... but to me this 08 show car at NAIAS looks like it has the smaller JDM bumper, doesn't it?

Thanks for the pics though. I really want to see what the GT's are like and if there are any handling/suspension or performance upgrades at all.

deeslk Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Well I am not liking the rear end of the new 08, but I like the front end better. Thanks for the inside pics from the show. I hope to head there this Sat, it's only a 4.5 hour drive from Toronto, Canada! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful: if it's going to take you 4.5 hours on the 401 you're going to have cars whizzing by you the whole way down! Seek first to understand, then to be understood.
