1991 Subaru XT Reviews

The Subaru XT6 or as it's know in Japan, Alcyone was named after a particularly bright star(Alcyone) in the Pleiades, a star cluster called Subaru in Japanese. This model was launched in the United States as the Subaru XT in February 1985 and as the Alcyone in Japan in June 1985. This series' hallmark is its styling, designed to evoke the image of the aerodynamic shape of a hawk or eagle. The XT6 / Alcyone's sweeping wedge shape enabled this model to achieve the world's lowest air resistance level, 0.29 CD (coefficient of drag). Take a look at some of the specs.....2.7 liter overhead cam, multi-port fuel-injected horizontally opposed (boxer), aluminum alloy, 6 cylinder engine (same type of engine Porsche uses in the 911), full time all-wheel drive with push button locking center differential, computer controlled active and adjustable 4 wheel independent suspension, 4 wheel disc brakes, variable assist electric power steering, tilt and telescopic steering wheel, the guage cluster actually tilts with the steering wheel.

this is a great car, fun to drive.
