 Well, it is finally time. The AVO Legacy is being retired from active service and will be sold to a lucky buyer in Japan. Coming in is the new 08 Impreza, which will be here any day now. We will be working on that car full time for the next month or two, fitting turbochargers, intercoolers, exhaust and suspension. There is quite a bit to do, but we are quite excited about it.
 Still, I will miss the good old Legacy. It has really been quite faithful through quite a lot of abuse. It has been to 4 major racetracks in Japan, along with much of the good mountain roads available. It has competed in time attacks, circuit trials, and hill climbs. It has also traveled from one corner of Japan to another, serving as my transportation to race events around Japan. It has even survived Tokyo traffic!
The new Impreza S-GT turbo won't quite see as much competitive driving, though it is destined to be in a time attack or two. We envision a slightly more peaceful purpose to this vehicle. I cannot wait to see where we go with it.
