Legacy sedans carry the B4 mark in Japan these days.
2ltr AVCS (vvt), 2.5ltr or 2ltr TT motive power.
Fairly nice cars...OK - just trying to be humble!! - and failing.
A*** and B** owners tend to hate them (the TTs that is) as they are better packaged, in manual form faster than all but the M3, and dare I say, go round corners like only Subies can. Also, the option of the McIntosh stereo makes life v. good in traffic.
Forgot to mention they ride rather nicely, too.
Flame proofs on, helmet on, crouched behind a concrete wall. I only have to protect one eye anyway!!
Cheers

Yup, B4 is Legcay, very, very nice i must say.
B4 Blitzen is a real stormer too! not sure what it has above and beyond the standard B4, but it is very nice.
I'm very tempted, when I get old to go for the B4, though probably it'll be the E-tune II, as I'd need a wagon for the doggies!

In manual format the Blitzen has a front lsd - quite a nice addition. 
The only minus being that you can't get the full McIntosh treatment on it... 
And Markus - the doggies'll likely want a slower bus m8!! Plastered to the side windows is bad for the coat you see
Cheers.
And it's a cheaper car in Japan than an STi -B4= 2.7mill yen - 2.95 nicely loaded - vs. 3.4 for the STi.

Dragon,
seem to recall a recent ad, maybe in EVO, stating the price of a new B4 was 20k, whereas an STi 7 was 23k (I think) so it looks like they are cheaper than the impreza's.
I do recall a few years back some chap had a rather nice black trackday car which was a TT legacy and it was a monster.
