LegGTLT Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Why not right? The holidays are near, we're a mere 4-6 months away from hearing anything legit, let's start a thread on what we've heard and banter for the next 4 months about what we think might be just maybe possibly coming to our showrooms. I'll start: The 2012 LGT will come with no changes except for colors offered. There! Please PM joeleodee For All Site Questions.

jagcars26 Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 My sources say there will DEFINATELY be a Legacy for the 2012 model year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegGT24 Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I hope the rumors are not true that the GT will no longer be offered stateside in 2012. I am looking at purchasing a 2011 or waiting for the 2012 model should there be one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydtron Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 2012 Legacy will be the size of a Tango EV and everything on the car will be capable of folding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracer-X Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Wait...there is a 5th gen legacy? Why have I not heard of this? Jump on it, Let's do it, Ride it, My Pony... EL4NFZT7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJ in PA Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I hope the rumors are not true that the GT will no longer be offered stateside in 2012. I am looking at purchasing a 2011 or waiting for the 2012 model should there be one. Subaru took away everything that would appeal to the type of buyer the GT was aimed at, and turned the Legacy into Camry/Accord with AWD. How much of a market is there really for a performance version of a Camry type car? It's a shame, as I miss the poor man's A4/3 Series that was the previous gen Legacy. I hope they go a little more upscale again with the next Legacy redesign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they go a little more upscale again with the next Legacy redesign. I dunno, I've seen some Camry drivers, especially the hybrid ones, drive pretty aggressively. Maybe they though electric motors would make the car go like a Tesla? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svx6 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I heard it was being redesigned as results from clinics show that folks think the current car looks exactly like a yam. I kid, I kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WraithAkaMrak Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 So will the '12 Legacy/Outback get the new engine introduced in the '11 Forester? (And maybe the Forester and/or Impreza will inherit the CVT to replace the 4EAT.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueWhiteBoy Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Well in 2011 they brought back the foldable (sp?) mirrors so for 2012... 4 stage seat heaters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydtron Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 $10 says the engine does spread out from the Forester, but the CVT is a better question. It might only mate with the Legacy chassis right now and could require a bit of a re-design. If the CVT bolts right in? Definitely could see it end up elsewhere, even if it is simply an option. That thing really squeezes some extra mileage out of the cars. Hell, the Impreza would see 30-32+ mpg on the highway with that thing easily.
