Oh, the pain! Why do I have to read about these cars I can never own...
For All You Wagon Lovers - NOS2Go4Me - 05-27-2008
Nice! Leave it to Subaru to come up with something new and cool!
For All You Wagon Lovers - Canadian ST - 05-27-2008
Wow thats a nice wagon! maybe we will get the non-turbo no-fun version?
For All You Wagon Lovers - lgSPI - 05-28-2008
I like the Forester STI version better! I hate canada for not having all these nice cars :(

You can get a Subaru Legacy wagon, 2.5 Gt with the Turbo..............
For All You Wagon Lovers - naz - 05-28-2008
and the new STi hatch is fairly close to being a wagon......
but the mad skillz blue paint on that legacy sure is nice! haha

Not good if you intend to keep the car long term, IMHO. Poor window sealing, noise, etc. is sure to happen after 4-5 years. This is the only thing keeping a Legacy wagon out of my driveway.

The story says this wagon is based on the Impreza platform, so maybe when the new Legacy shows up here in a year or two, the frameless windows will be a thing of the passed (crosses fingers).

i totally agree with you on that. I always make the comment at every auto show to them. Glad to see Impreza is changed, but have to wait to see if legacy will change, maybe then i would consider owning a used legacy :)

so quick question.. ppl concerned about frameless windows.. have any of you actually owned the impeza? my wrx was 6yr 84k old, and no issues with window sealing.. actually no issues with anything... i don't think i've ever heard of any window sealing issues in impeza/legacy on the forums
many cars use frameless windows with no issues.. that's the dumbest reason i've hard for not getting a turbo subaru :)

X3, my brother has a '02 Impreza and so far no problems with noise from the frameless windows.
Laterz :)
For All You Wagon Lovers - naz - 05-29-2008
if impreza sound like they have noise issues its from an overall lack of soundproofing
For All You Wagon Lovers - Flofocus - 05-30-2008
No issues here with frameless windows. Better not, its a 2 year old car! :P
My fathers old BMW has frameless windows, and its a 94, no issues whatsoever with noise or seals.
For All You Wagon Lovers - naz - 05-30-2008
soooo
imack.. mo_focus go ahead and purchase those turbo subarus.. frameless windows are officially no longer a barrier to ownership
