Back in January, while in Detroit for the unveiling of the new Legacy, i got to meet fellow Subaru guy and Legacy driver Alex, owner of i-club. He proposed a change in the Legacy community by offering multiple forums for modern Legacy owners. The idea was a good one, but the details still needed to be worked out. We had the conversation again in Las Vegas at the Ride n’ Drive, and decided again that it was a good idea.
Well, the new models have been a reasonable success, and a lot more new Legacy owners have entered the community. Coupled with an increasing number of second and third generation models entering the used market, online representation of ownership is climing pretty steadily.
To that end, Alex has split up the lone Legacy forum and with my help, distributed it and the Turbo Legacy Countdown forum into a broader spectrum of subjects including Powerplant, Transmission, Suspension and interior/exterior/lighting.
It’s our belief that the Legacycentral BBS should remain in its current form and cater to the needs of the first generation owners. Uprooting and disrupting this brilliant community is the last thing i want to do, so we decided to compromise. The LCBBS will continue, while i’d like to urge owners of newer generation drivers to explore the i-club forums.
So, go have a look, and say hello!
