Legacy compared to WRX


Recommended Posts

Legacy with the torque should take it one way or the other. The Auto FXT was supposed to be faster than the manual WRX! Now I don't have specific numbers, but once boost builds, the Leg should be gone lickety split. After riding in my buddy's STi the other night, I think I'd still rather have that than the new Legacy unless that blows me away on first impression. Besides, for racing. I know the Legacy would be a bit lighter and more of a sleeper, but the parts catalog for the STi will be a bit bigger still. Can't beat the Brembos or 6MT too.

I think that if someone wants what an STi does, a Legacy isn't going to ever satisfy them. They are very different cars, I think. The Legacy will just never have that hard performance edge that an STi does. Kevin

STI should be in the 4.9 to 5.3 range for 0 to 60 times. This is the range I have seen from about 6 different testing articles from various car magazines. The STI seems to be right in that 5 second zero to sixty time, and that is very fast for a $30,000 dollar car...heck if the Legacy really hits 0 to 60 in 5.5 seconds for the 5 spd MT, I will really be impressed!

[quote name='PPower']A silver/silver STi with no wing can be just as stealth especially with a FMIC and RS hood (or painted CF). Just get the STi. You'll be happiest with it I think.[/quote] Are you talking to me Preston. :P We'll see how they handle and how the rest of it feels and what kinds of features and options you can get. Penny for penny, either would likely fit my bill. The sleeperness really is priceless, but the knowing its a racecar is a whole other thing too. So torn! We'll just have to see how testdrives go and total up my estimates for what I would add to get it to my desired status.
