Found a Legacy 2.0 jdm, but badged pink front, rear and on the engine. Is this a recognised model, or just bling attached by the owner? The engine bay looks original, and the pink badge does as well! Ex Sti v3 wagon owner for 10 years, 115,000 happy miles in it!

Pink badge not original on a Legacy. The Generation 2 cars (1993-1998) had a dark green badge for the GT and early RS (250PS or 260PS depending on age) and a red badge for the later GT-B and RS (260PS or 280PS depending on transmission). Those were the only cars that had coloured badges, everything else was standardised.

If you are looking for a JDM Generation 2 car, read this for more information... https://legacypic.uk/history/legacygen2.php 

I'm guessing from your second post you are after something much newer than those. The fourth generation cars had paddle shift for the automatics and came with 260PS EJ20X twin-scroll engines and the Porsche 5-speed box, which is miles better than the Subaru designed 4-speed automatic gearboxes used in generation 1-3 cars. There are loads around to choose from. Search for "Subaru Legacy 2.0GT" on eBay!
