Having obtained from Forza Horizon 5's Rami's Racing History Dry Season Playlist, the first-generation Subaru Legacy is in the bag and looks like I have a word with the first generation of Subaru's midsize vehicle that was changed from a rally favorite into a commoner's choice, long before the Impreza took its rallying role that forever changed Subaru. Yes, Subaru went rallying before it was cool.
The first generation Subaru Legacy was introduced in Japan in February 1989 and it was available in the following variants; the 220 PS (162 kW) DOHC 2.0-liter turbocharged "RS" with a 5-speed manual transmission only, followed by the "VZ" sedan and wagon and the "TZ" sedan and wagon with the 150 PS (110 kW) DOHC 2.0-liter engine. A smaller 102 PS (75 kW) SOHC 1.8-liter engine was used for the "Vi" sedan and wagon with FWD only, the "Ti" sedan and wagon, the "Mi" and the entry-level "Ei" sedans and wagons. Its involvement in motorsports includes the 1990 Safari Rally that saw Patrik Njiru winning the Group N class, a one-two finish at the first leg of the Acropolis Rally in 1993, and a victory in the eighth round of Rally New Zealand with the late Colin McRae behind the wheel.

Motorsport involvement aside, it's time to give the first-generation Subaru Legacy a quick run against some old-timers in the stadium for the fun of it. Almost for the fun of it. Let's roll the tape.
The Legacy did live up to its legacy. See what I did?
Enjoy your new ride!
