I lowered the top of the car, so it doesnt have the SUV look, and it doesnt look as large anymore. I think it looks great! What do you guys think? :smt023

Not bad, but I personally like the original.

i sat in a 2011 legacy, i am 6'3" and i had to lower the seat all the was so my head was not hitting the roof, and i had about half an inch of room with a legacy with a sunroof.

The Legacy model died after the 06-07 model. I'm not a fan of camarys, I prey someday Subaru will bring back the Legacy.

The rear screams IS250. The car reminds me too much of a kia, honda crz, varies toyota and lexus. Coming from a previous toyota/lexus owner, dont get me wrong i love them dearly (old ones) But when i want a subaru....i dont want to see a le...xus. I know its just a concept, but that one already has a running motor, i doubt its going to change too much. Look at the Legacy concept....Didnt change at all. "Not that is looks bad, it just doesn't look like a Subaru. It's ironic that Subaru did the Mediocrity marketing campaign and it seems that's the direction they're heading." Rossl (nasioc) Said it very well. It looks like an everyday car now. I will give you 5 dollars if you find a car that looks like the 04-05 impreza.....You wont. They stood out and looked great. And were great.
Sorry for the rant.

Nah that looks fecking cool!! I really don't like the GD/GG series, think they're ugly as sin. I like the current hatch, but not the sedan, just looks weird.

Blob eyes and peanut eye Imprezas were great. They had presence.

Ok if that's what the impress might look like then what will the Legacy look like? That time me looks like the.direction they are going with for a Legacy, not an Impress.

So since you made the car thinner, it looks like it should be shorter too. I also like the original better, but I also just like the car in general. Test drove one once, the cvt transmission is interesting... I'd totally buy an sti legacy, if I were in japan lol.
It's kinda lame that the impreza concept is looking WAY too similar to the legacy. I'm ok with the legacy, but now the impreza concept looks like a luxury car. But it's supposed to be a sports car! ugh, hopefully they will change a lot of it.

Last good Legacy was the BL series in my opinion.
The new ones are horrid especially when you look at the outback. Its as big, I think bigger, then the Forester. What the heck.
Only new one I have somewhat liked is the SEMA GT-K wagon.

The new Legacy is just too fat for me to enjoy it, regardless of styling.

Wow you even toned the fender flare down... it looks good but the headlights are the biggest thing on the car now.. it looks like a 2007 Nissan Maxima..
I'd buy that over the original.
