Sunday Stories: Subaru Legacy S402

Subaru Legacy S402



The Impreza STi S204 is one of the fastest road going Imprezas ever built by Subaru, more powerful and fitted with racing parts, it is capable of challenging supercars on twisty tracks and short straights, the S204 was actually used as a basis to build the almighy Sti Spec C Type RA-R that I still happen to dream of at night...this is why we were equally excited when we heard of Subaru's plans to give the same treatment to the very good Legacy B4 sedans and wagon versions...here comes the Legacy STi S402!

First of all, the Legacy is a great looking car, still living in the shadow of the manufacturer's icon and sharing a lot of components with the Impreza. Those S402 versions (sedan and wagon) feature a good bunch of STi parts including the 2.5-liter flat-four motor, remapped ECU, widened front fenders, reduced steering ratio, Momo steering wheel, Bilstein suspensions, Brembo brakes and Bridgestone Potenza RE050A18 tyres among other goodies...

The S402s will make it to the japanese Subaru dealers at the end of June at a price starting at ¥5,355,000 and topping at ¥5,491,500. We can't wait to get our hands on any of those 2!
