And I'm game to drive up to mill town and meet with substitude. If my schedule allows I'm willing to drive out to the westside. Not sure if I can make it to the cruise, but hopefully I will be there & see other Leggies! Hope to have my new Ravspec polyurethane front lip installed by then.

tealdub Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Does your vin# start with a 4? I think that indicates made in Indiana. I thought most cars with a vin# beginning with a "J" were made in Japan. Not 100% sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjiz Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Mine had an Indiana sticker on it, and I am pretty sure my VIN starts with 4. The dealer here may get it's cars "through" Fuji Industries, but doesn't Fuji still own the factory in Indiana? So it doesn't matter "who" you get it from, they all come from the same place. right?

Nautious1 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I just checked mine and my VIN starts with a 4. it does say produced by Fuji industries on the engine plate. I'll try and post a pic later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
808_lgt Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 We get ours through SOA. That's why we don't have spec b's. Because SOA doesn't wanna give us those models. Facken wack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reference this thread: http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58200&page=8 Post #114. Thank you. We get our Legacy's from Indiana. The JDM Legacy's can't come to Hawaii because of the 5 mile an hour crash beam bumper. Which means they have a shorter bumper in Japan, which looks kinda cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FJ60 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Didn't know that. Wonder why Hawaii can get the other models of Legacy then, if they are coming from the same building in Indiana. Unless things have changed since 2004, this is what I know: Hawaii could only get select Subaru models because a company called Schumann was the sole distributor and a dealer of Subaru vehicles in the state. I don't recall the owner of the other Subaru dealer on Oahu, but they too could only get their cars through Schumann, the distributor. Most other states get their cars through SOA (the manufacturer and distributor). Servco Pacific has since bought out Schumann. Whether or not the sale included the distibutorship I don't know. Servco owns all but one Toyota dealership in the state. They are also a distributor of Toyota vehicles. Practically every Toyota sold in Hawaii was a car purchased through Servco the dealer and Servco the distibutor. (Nice set up.) Monopoly? No, because Big Island Toyota (located on Hawaii, the island) is not owned by Servco and gets their vehicles through Toyota USA. (Convenient way to avoid a lawsuit.) Servco the distributor excluded certain models to 95% of the population in the state that were otherwise available nationwide such as the Corolla FX-16, Corolla AWD Wagon and the 1980s Land Cruiser. Servco the distributor didn't want to deal with sunroof issues in the 1980s so sunroofs weren't available during that period, too. A friend of mine had to purchase his Cressida from Big Island Toyota and ship it to Oahu because he really wanted a sunroof. And don't even think about cross-shopping among the "dealers" on Oahu for a Toyota. It is verboten at Servco to undercut a quote once your name is in their database. Another friend had to purchase a Tacoma under his sister's name so that the second salesperson at another location could offer him a better deal. It was the salesperson's idea, not my friend's. Loooong story short, I wouldn't be surprised if certain Subaru models aren't available in Hawaii.
