I though I just voted for this car a few days ago.

Cool again because it's the same car pretty much.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

Less cool than the damned-near-identical car that was just polled, because it bundles in all the utterly yawn-inducing other models.

That's a good point, I hit that Cool button too quickly. I like Legacys (Legacies?) plenty but it's only really the more powerful wagons that make the most sense to me. I have this daydream about winning the lotto and owning a couple of dogs. With money no object I will need something practical and fast to take them around in (as part of, you know, my collection of cars), and it would be between a Legacy, Stagea and (a little grudgingly) some Audi or other.

The US sure is spoiled for choice by not being spoiled for choice.

How is this car different, or better, than the one we just polled?

 

[Sage Ages]

About as significant as a Toyota Camry.




Why did the nominator feel the need to list the exact model of turbochargers? I know their different engines but that's a strange way to designate them.

Because JDM tyte, yo!

 

[UltimateYosh]

Like I said in the other poll because this is literally the same car,

Bland, Boring but is a good performer.

Nothing Cool, but there is nothing that makes it remotely uncool.

Meh.

Overtight anorak, possibly.

 

[TheCracker]

SU because we've only just polled it.

 

[C_Raccoon23]

Since this includes the lesser models, I'm going with Meh.

 

[Roo]

JAFL.

 

[TexRex]

Yawn-freaking-tastic.

To be fair, the two were nominated by two different people.

Copy-and-paste tedium. SU.
