Apart from the old AlfaSud and the Porsche 911, nobody else can be bothered to do this. They say it keeps the centre of gravity low, but I reckon they do it just to be different.

BEST Legacy yet, B4 RSK is a saloon version of the UK legacy. But with twin turbo engine (same engine as impreza v5), bilstein suspension as standard, this car is a wolf in sheeps clothing!!
Has a special 2 stage turbo, small turbo kicks in at crusing rev (2500 approx) once at 5000 the car flies leaving a big smile on you :)
Beats GSI's,ST220,S4,S6,Boxtsers,328's in performance.. Bhp: 280
0-60: 6 secs
Max Speed: 160+mph
Only downside to it is ... ...thats about it
