More like Hyundai`s cousin............../catfight

That looks like a run-of-the-mill everyday looking car from the front, nice colour.

I'd guess its got the exclusivity of a Super VR4 saloon in red or something like that. Respect due for what it is, but not to my taste.

Dont like the styling one bit. Much prefer the run of the mill Legacy B4 styling, but prefer the Galant/Legnum VR4 styling even more.

I like it too. Apart from the mats. And the engine. The engine would have to go.

Instead, a nice EJ257 lump with a GT35R on it (or similar).

And preferably a wagon.

:D :D :D

The did make a wagon and we see a lot of them here in NZ. Probably as many as COTY's, so at a rough guess they made maybe 1000 to 2000 of them?

The front bumper and rear bumper are both a little ugly in real life.

If you really really want a Legacy you need an S402.

I was trying to be self-deprecating. I obviously failed. So:

Remap is implicit in the engine change: you can't run a 2.5L engine on a 2.0L ECU.
If I was going to that level, it'd include a Motec - end of story.

MPG - the last EJ257 I built ran a 10.9s quarter and returned 30+mpg under normal driving (i.e. not driving it like glass, just normally) This is why I get frustrated with the VR4s thirst.

Diesel - no. I'm not a diesel convert - I just can't see the point in an extremely thirsty petrol car that is only marginally faster than rep-boy in his company car with a remap.

I guess ugly is what you get when you let Porsche designers anywhere near something other than a Beetle

third up is the karman ghia cab (shark nose)
