tallguylehigh Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 Editing, I see that the base GT gets some other climate controls. Has anyone seen these yet? :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Control Freak Posted May 17, 2004 Author Share Posted May 17, 2004 Page 25 shows it as being manual on the GT and dual-zone automatic on the Limited. My dealer is looking in to that exact question now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akm3 Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 Nice job! Thanks for saving me the headache of doing it! I like the STi options :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallguylehigh Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 Hmm, if the dual zone climate control is reserved for the Limited GT, that package just became a heck of a lot more appealing to me. It explaing the GT's climate controls as 4 rotary dials, in my mind that means no digital readout. Before, with the leather and the sunroof, I could add those if I wanted at my leisure. Now with this dualzone climate system I think I will be a Limited customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapel Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 ditto. I'm very interested in a nice digital climate control system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallguylehigh Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 This climate control system makes the $2500 price hike for the Limited a lot easier to swallow than if it was just the other things we were debating on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtguy Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 The auto climate control would have been nice, but with the sunroof being packaged with the leather, I'll say no to the lot. It's too bad, as an automatic climate control system, even without the dual-zone (which I think is silly, but that's me), would have been nifty. This is typical Subaru, though. They bundle a bunch of options, and make it so that you either a) have to move up to the next trim level, or buy all of the options at the same time. They make up for it by offering a very high level of standard equipment on the cars, however. But were such things available a la carte, I would certainly opt for the automatic climate control and leather, without the sunroof. That flap deal bothers me, rather than having it just open up huge like the Forester XT's roof. Did anyone notice that according to the brochure, an alarm setup is standard? Pretty cool. Wonder what the "perimeter protection" is, however, besides something I probably don't need? (Okay, it only SEEMS like I'm whoring...) [b][mod]Not anymore. :D[/mod][/b] I'm also digging the aluminum rear liftgate on the wagon. Wonder if the sedan trunklid is aluminum, or will there be yet another reason us wagon folks can feel superior to sedan folks? :lol: Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avarice Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 The lack of dual zone climate control and lack of stability control are my main problems with the GT Legacy right now. The worst car I drove in the winter was my '99 Camaro SS and I managed. I am sure the Legacy is far superior to that but I am used to the point and drive simplicy of the Audi on snow tires w/ stability control. Somehow I think I will appreciate the extra 80hp on a daily basis as opposed to the stability control kicking in a few times a year. :twisted: Dual zone is nice but the wife and I usually agree on a temp so its not that big of a deal. Hmmm, I guess that leaves me with the difficult choice of picking a color :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC GT Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 From the overhead shots, it looks like the front struts have some YELLOW in them. Could it be that we are getting the Bilstein struts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomerJay Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 What's w/ all the STI trim they are selling? Why don't they just make an Legacy STI so we won't have to wonder. I hate waiting :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th3Franz Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I'm not sure what to think of the STi pedals with the cherry red rubber dots in them. I was hoping it would just be like the WRX pedals, aluminum with holes. But, maybe the rubber dots will help performance driving. I still want a brochure to look at in person. :D -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
