[HOONIGAN] Explores Subaru's Secret Heritage Hangar! 

I am utterly astonished and dismayed that you were standing literal inches away from the Legacy GTk (the red and black wagon behind the David Coleman car) and didn’t even LOOK at it much less mention it. As a colossal 5th Gen Legacy nerd, I’ve been wondering where that car ended up for literal years, and here you guys are standing with it in the background of your shots for 5+ minutes and it doesn’t even get a second glance. That is the *only* USDM 2010+ Legacy Wagon in existence. Full 2.5GT driveline, dozens of one-off bespoke parts, 300+ hp *turbo wagon*. PLEASE go back and get a better look at this thing, for our sake. In fact, I feel like this warehouse deserves an entire second episode.

Subaru heaven. What a gorgeous sight to behold.

I need a Part 2!! You walked right past the bright orange ST-X (Baja prototype). Such an odd but rare vehicle deserves a mention at least haha

This video is not about Subarus. Every time Ron and Scotto are in a video I get serious 1998-2008 nostalgia. Never stop talking about the good old days. I wish I could hang out with you guys. The cars are killer too. Living in Colorado I see killed Subies everywhere. Both of my brothers first cars were Subarus. GC8 in that killer green/blue color and first gen Legacy wagon. I've never owned one but I will eventually stuff a EJ22 or EJ25 in my Karmann Ghia. PS: I read SCC , Turbo , Grassroots MS AND I would stop at Barnes and Nobles to pick up a Max Power from time to time.

Subaru should totally give this guy a raise. Setting this up is genius. Right now Subaru is really in the good graces of the performance crowd so this reminder is very timely. Smart move.

I had 2006 Spec B #024 for a few years. Nice to see #001 here.

I saw those 2 s209's at SubieFest Florida last year absolutely gorgeous. They also had the pre production press 22b STI vin 001 on display. Such a cool experience to see all those!

When a 41 minute video is over too fast. What a collection! Only ever seen photos of the mountain rescue Forester before, that thing is so rad. 👌

Growing up in New Zealand we had most of the cars shown here (especially the Forester, Legacy, ), within reason of course but because we could so easily import from Japan and the laws were very very loose as far as building cars. It was $2000 NZ aka 1k USD for a rolling chassis and a body would be say, 3k NZ, we always budgeted 5k to get the car to NZ . I was lucky enough to have a 2002 Legacy STi, after a little tuning it was a 200mph station wagon with THAT Nardi wheel stolen from my friends RA!!!! The full RA had a roof vent that was opened manually too. I think one reason Subaru were so chill with us was Possum Bourne, a now deceased NZ rally legend and truly amazing human. He is worth a google too. We were definitely blessed by Subaru as Australia didn't even get the cars we did and had way harsher importing laws. Now NZ made all cars before 2007 illegal to import, it could be newer now as I left NZ in 2010 so the scene changed fast. For a time we had people like Smokey coming to NZ to see our tunes and to take the Supra and remove the 3l 6cyl and put a 2l 4cyl in it to win the 300kph race that is a thing in NZ that is very worth googling. I remember there were 20 plus SVX just in Auckland... They were very expensive.. So many memories pouring out that were lost to the BS that always happens with "friends" and working on cars. Thanks to Subaru and Hoonigan for sharing these incredible cars.

Ah man. Im so glad yall didn't skip over the RX. Pops and I raced a white RX turbo back in the day in SCCA Rallycross (2005 ish) and man it was a fun car. That was Dad's "gateway drug" into Stage Rally. He won a bunch of the regional championships and then we moved on to the big leagues. We've got a Brat parked in the garage too! Hopefully someday we'll get that thing restored. Got all the parts needed. Growing up Dad drove a white turbo legacy sedan and an XT-6. I think the only older Subie we never had was an SVX. Those were hard to find even back in the 2000's! We're a Subaru family through and through. What a great video. Thanks boys!

This video did not feel like 41 minutes. Y’all are giving us some of the best car content available these days. You’re talking about super street and import tuner, you guys are now the variation of those mags. Bringing quality coverage to the people that want it. Thank you for all you guys do.

A little part of me died when I heard that mirror snap at the end(can't have anything nice...said the 80's). Love this video, spent 1/2 of my life in Subaru's so I enjoyed every minute of this. Seeing the red 4WD button on the shifter brought back many trolling memories. The commentary was on point as usual.

The mountain creek reference had me dead, little has changed in 16 years; the parking lot is still filled with WRXs, only now with slightly more vape clouds

What an amazing collection. I wish we could've seen all of them in detail!

Love y’all. Keep up the best content. Timing is always great for hoon lunch breaks. 🤘

I can't believe you didn't talk about Mark Higgins' TT STI build!! I live on the Isle of man and watched the speed lap, defo check out the on board video of him lapping the TT course, it's insane!

“Longer the name, faster the car” Accurate and noted

So many sick wagons that were just over looked😭 i loved this video

Thank you guys so much for letting us also visit this holy grail of Subaru!

@15:17 When you made the “action park” reference about that crazy Baja looking one, I about DIED laughing 😂

This is one of the best all time videos you guys have put out. I really appreciate this.

Love these obscure collection montages where you and other folk just nerd out for an hour. Great stuff!

21:45 “omg a spec b” Me: look at that preface legacy behind them 😍”

That picture of Ron's, Scotto's and Vin's old subaru's made me hit up the old facebook marketplace for one

I remember passing by the the headquarter parking lot years ago and catching a glimpse of the 22b. Definitely a unicorn sighting for me or for anyone kinda in the wild.

Always on point for lunch. Thanks guys, keep up the good work

Dave Coleman is still around racing Lemons in a Miata and working for Mazda. Seriously cool dude. He also gave us the “Dave Point” which was how he explained front suspension technology. Of all those magazines only GRM is still around (lifetime subscriber here).

What an amazing episode. So much awesome stuff to behold. Thank you for bringing it to us.

Love videos like this!things we would never see or even know about unless for this video 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

My Aunt had a 1st generation Legacy when I was a little kid. Damn thing lasted forever as I recall. Crazy seeing one again as those have to be rather rare at this juncture. And all these years later I drive my own EJ powered Subaru (VA STi). So many gorgeous examples in that collection!!! Although the whole spare under the hood concept... not sure who green lit that one, but my God what were they thinking?? 😂🤣

I owned 7 Suabru legacy turbos first generations ..!! Best car Subaru ever made ..!! I currently have a mint condition 1992 Subaru Legacy turbo 5spd with 107 thousand original km..!!! It’s stored safely in my heated garage ..!!

Also walked right by the Isle of Man car too..... that silver ST/i was the first car they let on the track in a significant amount of time....

Wow, I was in the process of building almost the exact same car as Bill! Mine was the '02 WRX engine, instead of '04 and the coupe was not the 2.5 rs, just the impreza with RS bolt-ons. Great taste!

I got to see some of these in Cherry Hill when I went through my training. So cool to see in person and awesome to see the collection grow.

Love the collection! Thanks for sharing boys

Sweet tour, what a treat to go check out all these cars in person and capture so much of the Subaru history and lineage.

I've had the good fortune to see a few cars from this collection at both Philly Radwood shows. The opportunity to see that 22B in person was probably the highlight of last month for me. Seriously, how many times am I going to get to stand right up on a 22B without it being roped off? That SVX is REALLY MINTY in person too, I think it has under 6k miles on it if I remember correct. Awesome to get a chance to see more of this collection!

Needs to be a part 2 so many amazing cars still to go through?!

Bill got the real dream job sheeeeeesh

A treat I didn't know I needed.. Thank you guys! :D

I've had the pleasure of riding passenger in a 22b. they're absolutely crazy and 100% have more than 280hp

Such a great presentation. I'm bummed you all didn't get to the purple prototype Forester XTI but it's all good. Subaru will always be my favorite car manufacturer.

So close to the Baja Concept car, and walked right past it. Supercharged 6cyl!

I will NEVER sell my GC8---- have had it for 20 years--- 5k mods ---400hp--- light -- awesome handling--- and the sound--- Driven many cars and even more powerful ones BUT there is something special about the GC that makes my heart race! Awesome vid...

As a subie enthusiast this is an amazing episode!!!

That Spec C Type RA R is to die for, that is the one that I want. This vid brought back memories, from the Brat (was my dream car once upon a time), the GL (wanted to lower one and put street performance tires for going to the mountains), talk about Sport Compact Car and Grassroots ( I stilll have some SCC issues around here), rally, Dave Coleman and his rally 510. Oh, and Bill's very nice GC, or is it a GM? I need to up my game on my GD.

Thanks to both Subaru and Hoonigan. Incredible stuff.

This video is like mainlining pure nostalgia.

As a Subaru fan, I really appreciate this video 🤙🏽

Holy shit Kyle looks different from the time when he built the Astrovan

This is the best hoonigan video ive watched in a long time.

Dang, I didn't recognize Kyle without the beard until you showed the Astro.. He looks like a real boy now..

Is this the first time Kyle has been on camera since he went home a couple years back?

As the driver of a 2009 WRX, this was super awesome to see! I noticed the (silver) one in the same body style at the entrance behind the 2 Hawkeyes. I'm sad we didn't get any specs on that one, but it's still super cool to see Subaru history.

This is a great video for any true car enthusiast. It showcases so many classic Subaru models.

I owned a white on white xt6... Absolutely love that car and miss it so much.... so happy you guys stopped and looked at that one!

Finally! A Subaru series dedicated to Subaru. I have an Impreza I'm working on now

HOW ARE YALL GONNA BE RIGHT NEXT TO THE LEGACY GTk WAGON AND NOT TALK ABOUT IT?!?! It’s the coolest modern Subaru wagon ever. Recaros and 300hp & 350ft/lbs! Literally so sick. It has the 2.5 out of the 10-12 legacy GT with a low mounted turbo. Just go back and drive it or even just start it!

I used to ride around in the back of one of those with my sister about six seven years old. It was my uncle's blue one, four speed; he hooned that thing always and one of my best memories with him.

i’m an 05 legacy gt owner and i’m so hyped to see this video and see other new subarus to me and the legacy’s!. Happy to see the spec.B and fxt for once!

Need to get a Forester STI in there

As a car-obsessed kid of the 80s, that era in Subaru's history will always be my favorite. I'm still mad I couldn't convince my dad to buy a BRAT.

Seen several of these at WBM in CT over the years. Glad a video is being made on this collection!

Amazing Subaru collection I could spend hours in that warehouse. Thanks Lads for such an in depth tour. Greetings from Ireland 😎

Scotto.. you gotta let other people talk. You kept interrupting the dude. It's like jon favreau sitting at a round table with 9 other people. You only hear Jon talking

Love it - wonderful vid. My brother-in-law had a black 2.5RS just like his at the very end there for a number of years. Personally daily a 2018 base WRX, (with the "loud" package, STI cat back and full Kicker upgrade and basically nothing else.) The cars are fun as heck, but the very best part about owning one is the way kids react to them - they just light up. Not sure what it is - the bright color, the huge intercooler scoop, the noise.... Super fun vehicles.

Super RAD! Thanks for sharing!

That's awesome to see the wholy grail of rally cars getting saved for so many to see

22:12 WAUW! That is so 80's 😂

30some years ago, when I was about 4, our neighbor had a Subaru brat with the seats in the back and an exhaust. For some reason, I loved that car as a kid! It was something about how loud it was and the bed seats. It's literally one of the only things I remember about living in that house.

More heritage hangers! I enjoy these type of videos the most

I was in that 22B and got about a 30mile drive in it years ago when Subaru brought it out to the East Coast Subaru Shootout that used to happen a long time ago. Such a cool car.

I am a 2020 WRX/STI owner and I must say this video gives a great history lesson about Subaru and the great things they have done. Subies forever guys.

Love those Subis. Got a limited Liberty GT Spec B Sti and love it.

Great video guys!! Proper geeking out with the Subaru tech. 🙂👌👌

24:40so true I had to have one and couldn’t until 2017 and it was a dream come true. I miss my 2017

I saw and sat in a 22B that Subaru was showing in 1998? I then bought 98 blue 2.5RS and modified it right after that. Drove that car for about five years and then sold it. Out of all the cars I've had, that's the one I regret selling. It never even made it to turbo status, it had the full N/A suit plus all the suspension/wheels/tires, and I had done a lot of lightweight modifications, so with me in it, it weighed in at ~2700lbs, in a straight line it was as quick as the initial WRX that rolled stateside. It was such a fun car to drive.

wow, the SCC one-lap car, minus the wing they borrowed and the water tank AC thing that stuck out of the window like a rocket launcher. Nice to see it's preserved, I haven't thought about that car in 20 years...

The production guy always hiding behind stuff in the back of the video is so funnnnyyyyy XD

Subaru RX - in Australia the Subaru L series Wagon and Subaru Leone sedan .. 🤙🏼 I had a 1992 L series wagon (touring wagon edition) 1.8L 5spd Manual.. was absolutely mint in 2002 .. really miss that car

Those shift levers for the 4wd gl vehicles, that wagon, the brat, etc. Were super cool, because you could literally change your range, and to 4wd while still rolling, and even without the clutch, a massive improvement over all other 4wds from the time, you didn’t have to stop to get grip, you just pulled that lever up.

On second short block cause... that's how it goes 😂

That's crazy! Y'all were literally less then a half hour away from ever I'm staying! I'll have to keep my eyes open for Bills Suby round the way. Such a badass collection of history. I knew a guy that would keep a spare trans in the trunk of his STI. Lol

This collection is outstanding 😍

First time I saw a SVX in the UK, was in Kielder Forest. It was team manager of Prodrive, David Richards' personal, RAC rally chase car, and he just parked it half in the ditch on the forest track, to go watch his boy, Colin blast past on the stage. Absolutely the most amazing car to see parked in the forest, on a cold wet, close to freezing late afternoon, in-between all of the spectators Euro boxes. You ignored the Legacy Wagon,!!!! but I had a 3 litre one, superb car.

Was able to got to the STi Gallery in Tokyo. They let us touch and get in the racecars they had on display, even the S209 and 22B. Highly recommend it for anyone planning to visit Japan.

3:36 Ah the FF-1. I remember seeing one when I went to rally spectating in Thailand. Pretty cool car.

Bill, you d man!!! Very nice collection and gc the end..

"Thursday blasting on the radio" lmao word!

Favorite type of videos from hoonigan

As a Subaru WRX owner and general Subaru fanboy, thank you so much for showing this. This is my dream garage. Also, I know 3 people in my area of Vermont that owned the SVX. I got to ride in 2 of them. One of them, my friend took me up to 155 MPH on the highway in his. They are fast.

I have a soft spot for Subarus. When I was a a kid my parents took us all to Disneyworld (6 of us in a car) and we were in a 77 GL (DL?) wagon (think that was the model) and it was a great roadtrip even though a bit cramped but I will always remember Subaru got us there and back safely. Subaru has come a looooong way since the 70s.

"I don't want to stop driving it"... that's my problem too.

Omg that 22b. One of my top 3 dream cars ❤️❤️

Great video. Was wondering if the spec b was going to be in it! I have a 2008, an estimated 500 were made that year. I will never sell it either.

Maaan I miss Sport Compact Car! That mag definitely got me into cars .. Anyone remember the SCC 14 second Sentra? LMAO

I had an '88 Turbo 4 door with checker flag seats and seat belts, air suspension and a digital dash. I was one of the coolest cars I ever had.

17:21 If you notice the pattern on the wheel caps on the RX Turbo it's engineering grid paper design. FYI, those wheel covers by themselves gave about 2% better fuel economy.

Great seeing brats getting attention I had an 86 and I still miss and hope to buy it back again

Love videos like this 🔥🔥
