Subaru Legacy (5th gen) 2009-2014

[Ferrer]

Subaru used to look very good, from their rally car pedigree. Sporty, and agressive. Now, their cars look just like any other family cars, which really poses the question, "why would you buy subaru?" I'm disappointed.

For the technology, I suppose. Now it seems like their only argument.

Why you'd buy a Subaru primarily should be fore the AWD/boxer engine combo.

Subaru is one of the most popular car brands here in the northwest U.S. Seems like everyone and their mother drive an Outback.

What I really don't understand is why is the flat six less powerful than the turbo four? What would be the point?

compared to other family sedans, it's not bad, but it's worse than before
it looks really chunky, the last gen was leaner

It seems now that almost all new cars look fat. Perhaps automakers are designing cars to mirror trends in our own population. The most recent Legacy is an astounding looking car, one of the best in its class. I had the pleasure of driving a 3.5 GT with the 6-speed and loved it. Why are automakers unanimously ruining their vehicles?

a more relaxed drive, with a softer curve of torque and a comfier power release.
Like for a Mercedes-Benz S600 and an S63, with similar figures but different set-ups.

And more smoothness too.

Ferrer, you say that the customer should be banned form decision making - I disagree.

UCP should be the decision makers!

we aren't customers for the main part though.
of all the active members, how many of them own a car or even payed for it?
how many of us bought the car and productively use it, not just for fun, or to avoid the public transport, or to hang out?
finally, weren't we enthusiasts before of being customers?

Even if all of UCPs active users bought a Legacy it still wouldn't break even (not even close).

However I agree UCPers should be in charge of car companies. Or proper car enthusiasts which amounts to the same thing.

All I know is we are awesome.

I think KFL needs to make a new acquisition - I have a few pennies around, wanna buy out GM and make some sweet-ass cars?

Also, forget the rest of UCP. KFL should also do consulting for other car manufactures - it's not like we compete with them anyways - we are far to pro for them to be in our league with out 16L V16 etc etc.

I'd actually prefer Chrysler. I don't know why, Chryslers have always seemed cool to me.

Guys we need a plan:

1 - factory: De Tomaso's factory is just a step out side of Modena and it's still there, unused, and unsold.
2 - projects: kidnapping all the Maseratis and Ferraris laying around while testing
3 - development: let's have some fun at the University's parking lot
4 - pre-launch slogan: we - kick - ass
5 - launch of the car: collect a certain amount of orders with 50% deposits
6 - Plan B: escape from Italy, destination Acapulco. with all the cars and money.

Adios amigos.

We can get a 2 for one bonus - buy GM, get Chrysler free!
