That link has been posted before 
The RX has been around since atleast 1974 as a 1400 RX Leone. It came with 5 speed

Slowest high speed chase ever. Most anti-climatic "car over a cliff" ending. More like, "Two cars go for a drive. Then one car drives down a steep hill."
Still cool seeing those old Subie's though!!

Re-post or not I hadn't seen it. Great classic car porn clip; what I wouldn't give to travel back to the 70's in Japan and test drive as many cars as I could get my hands on.

Killer Post!!! I hope it stays up!!! I"m sure the RX LEON had the 4 BBL. option on it since it looked like the rally setup 
I was listening to it and you could hear the difference between the two in the car!! I looked at the sanbar van on the dyno-BADA** 
14HP-23#s torque 
I would"ve like to seen the RPMs too 
It sounded like 6-7000!!! WAY COOL!!!

What a shame to see that RX get smashed all to heck. It was "just a car" back then. Looks like in some of the shots, you could see the roll bar. Too cool. I wonder if any of those cars even still exist? You'd probably have to have a lot of cheddar to get your hands on one though.

I'm pretty sure they sped this film up to make it as riveting as this was. I was on the edge of my seat for 8 minutes. Great post. Cool to see the old Soobs.
