Seriously? Is there only speculation?

Does it only apply to certain chassis code legacys?
Why do people have it on their cars if they don't know what it means?

I'm confused.

I'm pretty much convinced that "L" just stands for Legacy/Liberty and the "7" is just an upside down L. It's probably way off but it's the simplest explanation I can think of.

The L is most likely legacy, as the JDM impreza badges are i's. The 7 itself is a repeat of the L, though the 7 stars of subaru would be another good guess.

Why do we put it on our car? Because we can, and the grills tend to like alot nicer than all the american offerings.

since when does knowing the meaning behind stuff ever stop people from putting it on their cars? :smt015

you do know what subaru means in japanese, right?

I think it's just a design, upside L, etc.
