2006 Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT spec.B
Subaru of America, Inc. has introduced the Legacy 2.5 GT spec.B performance
sedan and will offer just 500 of these special cars for model year 2006.
Previously only offered in Japan and Europe, the U.S. version of the spec.B
pairs the performance of the 250-horsepower intercooled turbo Boxer engine in
the Legacy 2.5 GT Limited Sedan, with exclusive suspension enhancements along
with unique design elements and interior features. (continued below)

The Legacy 2.5 GT spec.B, the
newest offering from America's All-Wheel Drive leader, stands as the ultimate
Subaru Legacy.
The Legacy 2.5 GT spec.B is available exclusively with a 5-speed manual
transmission and, like all Subaru models, features Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
as standard equipment. Like the Subaru Impreza WRX and WRX STI models, the
Legacy spec.B built a loyal following in Japan and Europe before coming to the
United States. As it did with the WRX and WRX STI models, Subaru designed a
version of the Legacy spec.B specially tailored for U.S. customers.
The Legacy 2.5 GT spec.B is quickly identified by its exclusive Titanium Silver
Metallic exterior color and aerodynamic side ground-effects moldings with chrome
trim. The road-hugging stance of the spec.B is further accentuated by unique
18-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels and 215/45 low profile performance tires that work
with the suspension upgrades to deliver improved handling performance. (The
standard 2.5 GT Limited Sedan features 17-inch alloy wheels.)
