Subaru Legacy B4 Body Parts Set ?

New hop-up being release in July (53727). I found this photo of the actual car:

I guess an important question is: will it be blue?[]

That'll make a change against the 'usual' Impreza's... []

Best car I ever owned was a 91' Legacy 2.2 GX, a bit battered, no history, 110,000miles+ but it went like snot off a shovel, never let us down, and took my family and I to the South of France and back with no stop overs, at 95 to 100mph a few summers ago, all it consumed was LOTS of unleaded.

RIP H344 SJB

Thanks for nothing myopic Volvo man.

I,d love an RC one!

Ahhhhh!!! THE only subaru I want is the 96 Legacy Touring wagon sport. It's the one out of Gran Turismo 1 $ 2. looks boss when all raced-up [8D]

[GPZ1000RX]

Me too but then reality in the shape of the insurance premium kicks in, the 2.2 GX (non turbo, let alone 2 of them!) cost a lot to insure!

My wife has strange ideas about living in a house and feeding our children:-)

The shell was on show at Shizuoka.

It's a "race" shell with smooth lines (looks like a Stratus 2), not a "scale" shell.

Wrong model, Mike - that's the old shape twin-turbo.

Which ABC already makes, quite nicely "scale":

Tamiya's race shell is the new shape Legacy/Liberty, "GT" with single turbo.

I have to say a bit of a let down looks like another Stratus, oh well...

I was more annoyed they left off the bonnet scoop. Without it that Suby is not a B4/GT, its just mum's non-turbo base cooking model grocery-getter. [|)]

[GPZ1000RX]

A great pity, it looks like any other polycarb "blob" to be found at any on road race meet the world over!

I'd like another "my mums" non turbo Legacy, they're plenty fast for a car!

[SJoerD]

Please tell me that's not a Tamiya body...! What a let-down... [V]

[WillyChang]

At least its a 'Tamiya' creation rather than them pilfering a dodgey Stratus 1.0 from Proline. [}]

As Willy says, at least you'll be able to run a Tamiya shell on your Tamiya racer. The 'proper' Tamiya shells may look good but they don't handle as well as the many blobs out there unfortunately.
