WHITBYFMEPRESS, WEDNESDAY, APRII 22,19~928 PAGE 19 Subaru's Tourîng Wagon offers practîcalÎty, performance FROM PAGE 18 you're at. Moving that power to the wheels is a fiour-s;peedautomatic transision. Unfortunately this is the only transmission aval- able for the Tourîng Wagon. Au with ail Subaru automnatics, it's full of safeguards, making it almost indestructible. *Making the Touring Wagon just handle. that much bette; Subaru decided to make the Torn Wagon four-wheel-drive. allows a safe outiet for the owr this engin., produces, at te sanie time givi*ng great trac- tioni is.ail weather condiions. My only advice te the would-be buyer, is consider a good s now tire if you plan te, travel much in snow-covered country. Good per- formance snow tires can make winter driving as much fun as i summer, especially with four- wheel-drive. Suspension is MacPherson strut both front and rear, and as you.might expect, it 15 much firer than regular Legacy Wagons. I have te, admit it is not reaillytat bad a ride for a performance c~aTi.speio gvsa . t1y and then ge flrm, makg or a better ride., Brakes corne in the form of four-wheel-disc ail vented for the sure fade-resistant stops. A new ABS (antilock) brakinig ystem graces the new Touig Wagon. Thiedifference i the new Nippon ABS system is that one gets no pedal kick-back when the ABS system comes on. Iàke ail Subarus, the interior is nicely laid out, with ail vital controls easy te, reach. New front- seats offer better suport over £igacy included. Proper use of Sound deadening materials makes this wagon exceptionally quiet. There are really no «boomi- ing sounds» coming from the rear, as in many wagons past and present. I only had 'a*chance to drive the To-uring Wagon for a few hours; at the press introduction. In the short time I did get te drive the *car I was imnpressed. with its handling, performance and appearance of this new model 0f Legacy. My only reservation about this new car is, the *price, at $27,499. For a car i which just about everYthing comes standard in- ciuding a moon roof, I su.ppose that's really not too out of lino. A Volvo similarly oquipped withou± four-whoel-drivo is $36, 100. I liked what I saw in this Touringr Wagon, ail thingamcn- sidored; I suppose the $279499 pietag is not bad when you thi ofil this car has te gave. Ethanol-blended gas available UCO Petroleum ic.
