tdoggydog Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 What would be cool is if the '09 came with some sort of Bluetooth package, which could then be purchased separately and installed on '08's and older, for a factory look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schneiks Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 the bottom line is they at least need more options - Premium Audio Option - Bluetooth Option - Luxury Package (lights, auto-up windows, memory seats, etc) - more that I can't think of at this hour in the morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_marquis78 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 agreed to all who say there should be an HP increase. If they make the car bigger, it would stand to reason that they could even turbocharge the 3.0 for the GT and maybe even the 3.6 for the spec B. Does anyone else think that it's hard to justify the extra 5k for the spec B when there is no HP difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigInALegacy Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 oohhh.... touchy subject. TONS of threads on that one if you search. Let's leave that one out of here for fear of clobbering the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_marquis78 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 which subject? I broached 2...the justification of the spec b or the different engine choices for a future legacy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigInALegacy Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Shhhh....the spec-b one.  No, all kidding aside, people are just strongly opinionated about that topic. Some feel it's justified while others feel you can get better performance for the same amount of money. In the end, it really depends on who's buying it, and what value they place on those extras. Search for the thread "Abandoning Manual Transmission" and the last few pages should have some banter about this.

the_marquis78 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 ah well right on we'll leave it to that thread then...but back to the topic of the future legacy...I have say Subaru is quirky...to say the least. They definitely think outside of the auto-design box. Just look at the new Impreza/WRX. What are they going to cook up for the Legacy. Obviously the Legacy isn't the icon the WRX is but that also means it's demographic is easier to please but considering that half of the cars in the class of the Legacy (Mazda6, A4 just to start off) are being redesigned to be bigger will Subaru follow suit?

BigInALegacy Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Many people believe it will get a little bigger in once they do the complete overhaul. I personally am not in favor of this... unless they give us a pretty decent HP jump, but then you'd be impeding on STi country, so I dunno what they're happy medium will be.

the_marquis78 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 sweet, thanks for the link...one slip of the memory and next you'll be sending me the link to SOA so i can find out more about Subaru in general...what's next?? but yeah I can understand about encroaching on STi territory which is why I can't understand why they didn't give the STi more HP that way they could pave the way for all the other models in the Subaru lineup getting more HP without taking away from the STi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, like you said, it would have given the rest of the lineup a little breathing room. Subie - yes... very humble people here... until someone talks about Spec-B's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegGTLT Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 2009 will have no big changes, minor cosmetic changes only. Next January (2009) the all-new 2010 Legacy model will be unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show. It will be an all-new, upscale, larger platform Legacy. Expect 3 different power plants to start; 2.5l N/A, 2.5l Turbo and the 3.6l all with CVT transmissions. The Legacy will add a 4th power plant in 2011, a turbo-diesel. Watch and see.... For those that missed it. Please PM joeleodee For All Site Questions.

jim1969 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 shouldn't the 2010 USDM Legacy be showing up as a 2009 JDM Legacy soon? That's what happened before. The 2004 JDM Legacy showed up here a year later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieDriver Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I thought I heard they were synchronizing model release this time, so Japan will see it same time we do. (unless I heard incorrectly...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim1969 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 so Japan would get an extra year out of the BP/BL model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Might make sense, after all Rev.D refresh was fairly significant. I don't think they refreshed previous generation as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
