My guess is that R&T readers will pick the 300 C. My choice would probably be the Elise, just because it's about damned time.

'Dream Car' has got to be the GT.

You know, I had those pics of your car in my mind when I voted for the Legacy. The performance of that car is on par with the Audi S4 and Volvo S60R at a bargain of a price!

You might have better luck finding that person on...you know...a Legacy board.

Pictures...what pictures?

I had seen those pics of Ken's car in the garage over a month ago, but must have thought some other dark blue Legacy 2.5GT pics I saw were his... Either way, Ken owns one hell of a Subaru!
