Here are some more information for Stainless Subaru Legacy:
With its top speed claimed to be 249 mph plus (or 400km/h) this speedy monster is quite capable to give your neighbor sleepless nights. Weber's Faster One seems to possess all the power it takes to make the owner proud.
Although the car's been trashed by some for its looks, many don't seem to share this opinion. The aerodynamics and the powerful engine generating nearly 900 horsepower are what intrigue most.
The Automobile's Engine
The car houses the already existing LS7 Corvette small-block 7-liter, V8 engine, with a couple of tweaks to enhance performance. The engine's featherweight Aluminum block has gotten a face lift with the installation of state of the art components. These high-grade automobile parts entail a precision-balanced crankshaft and precision-balanced piston rods coupled with forged pistons.
The camshaft of the engine is known to have high performance timing, which is supported by two cylinder heads with larger valves. Further the intake/outlet ports have been tuned for optimal mixture flow.
Moreover, even the peripherals of the engine of the automobile have been altered with the finesse of Swiss engineers. These engineering feats include a specially designed high-performance fuel injection system and a supercharging system assisted by a single mechanical belt-driven supercharger for each bank of cylinders.
As for the exhaust system, it's been made from stainless steel and incorporates metal catalysts that has a low back pressure. It is further supported by a muffler bypass valve that unleashes a some great acoustic performance.
The engine's enormously high capacity and forced induction leads to a magnificent power output of 662kW at 7 000r/min and 1050Nm at 3 800r/min.
Apparently, the car's not so "aesthetic" design tuned for aerodynamics than appeal is also a big factor contributing to its speedy performance. For instance it totally lacks door handles as even they can increase drag, the underside too has been finished to matchless smoothness, and the whole Aluminum frame weighs only 65Kg.
Undoubtedly, with so much of adroitness going into its design, the supercar accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in less than 2.5 seconds. Needless to mention the price tag of this masterpiece is around US$1.5 million! So are you ready for it?

Car Recalls Recapped: What is Happening in the Recall World? MI Auto Times Shares
More than 750,000 vehicles have been included in car recalls from different major automakers and all within the first full week of September. MI Auto Times share the details of the latest recalls.
DETROIT, M.I. – Car recalls may come in waves and different automakers have to fix issues that may arise with vehicles that are included in their lineups. With so many large car recalls during the month of September, MI Auto Times is recapping who has recalled what and the details on the potential problems.
Who and What
Car recalls are affecting many manufactures as the last two weeks have seen hundreds of thousands of cars included in new recalls. Some include:
- 2009-2011 Honda Pilot 310,773
- 2010-2011 Subaru Legacy and Outback 195,080; Subaru model years 2002-2007 Impreza and 2003-2008 Forester are also being recalled
- 2011 Volkswagen Jetta 30,294
- 2007-2008 Hyundai Santa Fe and Veracruz 205,233
- 2007-2008 Kia Sorento 10,631
All of these vehicles have potential problems that range from seat belts to airbags, but how serious are the potential problems?
Problem Details
Honda
The Honda Pilots that were manufactured from March 13, 2008 to August 30, 2011 may have incomplete seatbelt stitches, or the stitches may be missing completely missing. If either of these two problems occur with the stitching, the seatbelt may detach from the anchor webbing, and this could include a higher risk of personal injury should a collision occur.
This may have been due to an "inexperienced" sewing machine operator at the supplier for Honda in Mexico. There was one occurrence in May 2010 and, when the second occurred in August 2011, Honda began a voluntary recall.
Subaru
In April of this year, Subaru received seven different complaints about front control-arm failures. Two of the owners who made the complaints lost the control of the vehicle, but there were no crashes or any other incidents reported. As a result of these complaints, Subaru is recalling Impreza models from 2002-2007 and Forester crossovers from 2003-2008. The Saab 9-2x hatchbacks, which carry similar mechanical equipment as the Forester and Impreza, are also being recalled; in total, these three models represent 295,123 recalls.
More bad news for Subaru continues as the Subaru Outback and Legacy models from model years 2010-2011 contain parts that in a worst-case scenario may catch fire. In the windshield motor there are components that make up the cover of the motor. In some cases, the components overheat and may begin to melt. If the cover melts, there is a possibility of the cover catching fire.
Volkswagen
There are different problems that arise with vehicles, and the all-new Jetta models seem to have a unique problem with their tailpipe designs. It seems the stainless steel exhaust pipe installed at a port of entry and at the dealerships sticks out farther than the manufacturer was considering as dangerous. If the tips of the pipes are hot, owners, passengers and others may walk by and burn their legs on the tips. As of now, there have been less than 10 complaints of burns, but it was enough of a problem to recall the many vehicles.
Hyundai
Car recalls of the Hyundai Santa Fe and Veracruz were made because of the driver's air bag electrical circuit. The clock spring in the contact assembly system may become damaged over time through normal wear and tear within the driver's air bag supplemental restraint system. If the spring within the electrical circuit meets high resistance, there is the possibility of the air bag not deploying if there was a collision. Non-deployment means there could be insufficient protection to the driver.
Kia
The vehicle's occupant classification system (OCS) communicates with the air bag system to tell the passenger air bag to turn off depending on the occupant seated. Normally the front passenger air bag turns off in circumstances such as when children or small adults occupy the seat. If the OCS does not classify the occupant properly, the air bag can become deactivated and not deploy if there was a frontal collision.
For More Information
Owners should expect to receive notices from the appropriate manufacturer between now and November. All problems will be taken care of by the dealership at no charge to the owner.
Owners who may want more information may contact the National highway Traffic Safety Administration's vehicle safety hotline at 888-327-4236.
