The Subaru Legacy sedan has long been the black sheep of the boxer-bred family. Whereas the WRX clearly appeals to rally fans and the Outback to hiking enthusiasts, the Legacy isn’t so well defined: The plucky sedan has been trying to find its voice ever since Subaru split the Outback and Legacy product lines.

The world has changed since we launched Subiesport Magazine back in 2004: Subaru has successfully carved a larger niche in America with the WRX and STI.

If you thought that the 2010 Subaru Legacy was a shocker (pleasant or otherwise), wait until you feast your eyes on this: the 2010 Subaru Outback.
