The Subaru Legacy is a mid-size car introduced by the Japanese manufacturer Subaru in February 1989 as a larger, upscale companion to the company"s Leone/Loyale (which was known, in some countries, by its trim level only, e.g. Subaru GL). The Legacy came with a 2.0 L engine and was available with all-wheel drive, which later became standard worldwide. In Japan, the Legacy has a reputation for being an affordable, quick, and nimble car. Subaru is trying to follow the success of the Impreza worldwide with the Legacy, offering turbocharged models in Japan and the Americas. The latest Legacy model has never had a turbocharged version released in Europe due to emission problems. A 1990 Legacy was the first Group N car to ever finish the WRC Safari Rally. This rally is considered the worlds most gruelling rally under the World Rally Championship. In 1990 the 38th Safari Rally had 59 competitors total, only 10 of which were able to reach the finish. The Legacy was the only Group N car able to reach the finish and was in 8th place overall.
