2008 Subaru Legacy Spec.B : Regular Car Reviews

We review the forgotten Subaru Spec.B. Or is it spec.b? or is it spec.B? or is it Spec.b? Ah Subaru, you and your weird capitalization.

I picked up a 2008 Subaru Liberty (Australian Legacy) 3.0R a few months back with the flat 6. It drives like it's on rails and just takes off like a rocket at any speed. What a car!

The Spec B is essentially the "STi" Legacy, where the GT is the Legacy "WRX" for the USDM. The legacy was the "grown up" version of the Impreza; so no big spoilers, a more comfortable ride while still being relatively quick and handling relatively well. Fun fact, the chassis of the WRX shown in this video is based on this gen legacy.

This owner mods stuff *EXACTLY* how I like to mod. All about handling and daily userability. No stupid interior mods, striping it out, stancing, far cannon exhaust, ratting, stupid dangling thing on a OTT tow hook. Instead, making it useable, comfortable and tasteful. Like as if it was a factory performance option(s). Stealth modding FTW.

"All of the go and none of the bro." I've always loved the legacy's from 05-09 because of that. Nice looking sedan, fun to drive, doesn't draw too much attention

I want this car from so long but this videos don't help to reduce their price, shhh... :D

[roydied]

I always thought the Legacy was a much better looking car than the Impreza. Looks a lot more sophisticated and is just a nicer car in every category.

I have never clicked an annotation so fast in my life .... i regret nothing

I really like this car now, I wasn't a big fan of it before but the way the owner has modified it makes it very intriguing. Great review as always.

Mr. Regular always hits the nail on the head with the typical Suba-Bro references. Here is a real life example of one I encountered several years ago.

Once upon a time, I was pulling into a gas station in my new-to-me Acura Integra. It was the first car I ever saved up for and bought myself, and I was very proud of it. It was very clean for the age and price I paid. But I digress. As I was pulling in, an acquaintance of mine whom I knew from some car meets flagged me down and I pulled in to chat. He was with a friend of his whom I did not recognize, let's call him Bro-skee. Bro-skee was driving a Subaru STI, the hatch one. Of course, since we are car people, we started speaking in car speak. My acquaintance started asking me about my new car and exclaimed that he liked it. Us talking about another person's car must have upset Bro-skee,  because he quickly interjected. Bro-skee proceeded to start talking up his STI like it was the second coming of Jesus. He said his STI could pull away from my Integra at half throttle, and essentially that my car is nothing compared to his. He literally insulted my car right in front of my face. All of this without ANY advances on my part.

I like Subarus. I've always been interested in owning one, but now whenever I stop and think about getting one, I think of this interaction.

that license plate catchphrase, "IT GOES IN, AND IT GOES OUT, IT GOES IN, AND IT GOES OUT"

[unstopableguy]

is this the car from gears and gasoline channel? will you do a review of the other guys evo?

[bobwalsh]

I've used that "So tight I had to use FEELER line more times than I'm willing to admit.

[Pocahonkers]

Man that flip-up license plate thing is probably the coolest thing I've seen on this channel in a while. It seems so illegal but so awesome at the same time!

[zackklapman]

When I bought my STI in 2007, one of these was sitting inside the dealership. I gave it a lookover. Good looking, quick, more refined. Big fan.

[NVRAMboi]

The 4th Gen Legacy design was so near perfect that even the Outback wagon had a great stance and lean to it. By far my favorite gen. of Legacy. I shall not speak to what Subaru has done to them since.

[aquadelic]

If this car were a person, it would be a bodybuilder that looks fat by wearing a shirt. This car oddly reminds me of the defunct Passat W8.

Manual transmission is literally a anti-normie prevention measure for cars. My next car is certainly going to be one so only I can drive it.

[Mattalot]

ITS A SIGN. i just put a offer on a Spec.B 6 Cylinder Wagon. ITS A SIGN... ITS GOING TO BE MINE :D

[PJemus]

it's called a Subaru Legacy. They are like the most popular subaru car in New Zealand. Here, most are automatic, and the station wagon version from the 90s is the most popular.
