O/T - Legacy B4 rumors

just read in a car mag that the Legacy B4 will be going to Europe in May, then the U.S. the year after. it won't be twin-turbo, but i think it may have the twin-screw turbo that will be in the new STi.

Question B4 Legacy

It really comes to europe?
Wow. That's great. I didn't expect that.

Cause there are alot of cars, which never come to europe.
For example the Mitsubishi Eclipse 3rd Gen.
Mitsubishi dealers around here told me they don't know if the car will ever be brought to europe.
Not that I want to buy one, but I was just interested cause I have never seen one here.

If the B4 will be successful in europe? I am not sure about it!

its the most successful sedan in Japan. this was still a rumor, i think, so don't take it as fact. i can't see why they WOULDN'T keep it in Japan only, though - its a huge success and was about the equivalent of $22,000US - a helluva bargain with kick-ass performance as a bonus.

I wouldn't bet on it being $22k in the US. I would imagine it'd be more around $30k.

it will be more expensive, but a while back a Subaru "insider" from Japan said on i-club that the improvements to the current B4 will be WELL worth the price increase. Brembo's? Sportronic tranny? more?

Hey...did I get auto-censored, or does somebody have to edit that manually?

I didn't say 'talk,' I said '*****,' as in 'to complain in an annoying fashion.'

Sorry for hijacking this thread.
