The Legacy Spec.B claims a 0-60 of about 5.7 seconds, which is pretty impressive.

Relatively expensive.


My $800 motorcycle will be just a hair behind the both of you, hitting 60 mph at 7.0 seconds... and in a 1/4-mile drag race with Legacy Spec.B, G6 GTP, Mustang GT, it'll come in second only to the Mustang

I am! I love it!!!
And it was a corvette sponsored event, so there were about 50 corvettes and this guy in a legacy pretty much spanked them all but a few.


The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

How did this turn into a "my car is better than yours" thread?

I'm not saying my car is better than other cars. I'm just saying I love my car!

Well, if you want to be like that, you did say that your car is better than Fords, including the Mustang, the Pontiac G5, the Chevrolet Corvette, and the Dodge Charger and Avenger.

I like my car better than those, yes. And compared with how they drove, in my opinion my car drives better as an overall package. That doesn't mean those cars might not be better in other aspects, or might not be better for how other people want to drive them. Everyone can find a car that is best for them.
But that also depends on what your definition of "better" is. Does it drive better? Does it get better gas milage? Does it do better in turns? Does it have a better stopping distance? Does it have more horsepower? Does it do better on a track?
Any number of cars could be "better" in different categories.
I posted earlier: In my personal experience Fords are not good on reliability. I've driven a G6 for a couple weeks, owned a 04 Grand Am for 4 years, not impressed with the performance. A saw a Legacy beat a multiple Corvettes on a closed track. Dodges drive like boats and have cheap interiors.
Those statements in no way mean my car is a "better" car.
A G6 is great on gas milage. A Corvette would do better in a straight line than a Legacy. Dodges come automatically with Sirus radio. There are other things that could make a car "better".
I was just giving different examples of different aspects of cars I have driven or seen. It wasn't meant to be a "my car is better than all these cars" thing. My apologies if it came off that way.

I have this tendancy to keep my cars forever. I had a Honda Civic that I bought new in '93. My son now drives it. It's been a great little car. I've had 2 fords for the past 7 years or so. Also great cars. Haven't had any problems with them either. Ford DOES make a good car. Their v8's are great.
The only car we've had problems with was a new Cadillac. Thing was always having issues.

I'm still in love with the Mustang GT, but having doubts now that I saw gas at over 4 bucks a gallon. Holy Cow! That's enough to make even me rethink my position on what I consider egg beaters as cars. I'm in a quandary. Just don't know what to do.


I just wanna shake it up.
