About the Legacy 2.5 GT (280 Hp) AWD
The BE Legacy GT was the twin-turbo sleeper that Subaru built for people who'd outgrown the WRX but not the need for speed. 280 hp — the gentleman's agreement number — from a turbocharged EJ25 flat-four, symmetrical AWD, and a five-speed manual in a mid-size sedan that looked completely anonymous. The Legacy GT did 0-100 in 5.6 seconds while carrying four adults and their luggage. No hood scoop. No wing. Just quiet competence and a flat-four rumble that only other Subaru owners recognized.
