Hardy - You could get the GT wagon with a manual transmission over in Japan. Right?
The grille is the stock grille? I thought all GT grilles were color matched, just like in the USA with the turbo grille.

I dont think so, but i've been wrong before.
Maybe I should've said stock style. NA grills have three slats, and the chrome doesn't connect on the top

No it was not. GT2 has a 93 Legacy RS and it most definitely a BD.

Hehe, I was hoping we weren't going to have to use Gran Turismo as a reference, but he is right...

So Subaru's own website is incorrect?

The BD chassis started as late 93 production. Those few months of 1993 BD production could have been sold as 1993 models, but how can you sell a chassis as a model year before it was produced?
What did Subaru sell for the 9 months prior to the japanese release of the second generation Legacy? Was there only 2 months of the 1993 model year?
I think not. Before 10/93, there was no such thing as the BD chassis. Gran Turismo has been wrong before.

Heheh, believe it or not, everyone is right!
There are 93 BC/BF and there are 93 BD/BG. In japan the year a car is sold is its model year. The BC/BF was sold up until late 93, and the BD/BG started selling in late 93.

Evidently. Also I was wrong about the transmission, manuals were available, just rare.
