The Subaru XT and XT6, produced from 1989 to 1991, were distinctive and sporty coupes that represented a departure from Subaru's typical wagon and sedan offerings. These vehicles were built on the same platform as the Subaru Legacy, but featured a sleeker, more aerodynamic body style with a sloping roofline and a distinctive front end with pop-up headlights. Both models were powered by Subaru's horizontally-opposed, 1.8-liter EJ18 engine, which produced 110 horsepower. The XT featured a 5-speed manual transmission, while the XT6 was equipped with a 4-speed automatic transmission. These vehicles were known for their nimble handling and responsive performance, making them popular among enthusiasts seeking a sporty driving experience while still enjoying Subaru's renowned reliability and all-wheel-drive capabilities.

Despite their sporty nature, the XT and XT6 were not without their quirks. The pop-up headlights, while a visually appealing design element, were prone to malfunction and required frequent maintenance. The interior was also criticized for its somewhat cramped rear seating area and limited cargo space. However, the XT and XT6 remained popular choices for drivers who prioritized performance and driving enjoyment. Their distinctive style and unique design made them stand out in the crowded compact coupe market. While not as widely popular as the more traditional Subaru models, the XT and XT6 remain cherished by enthusiasts, with their combination of performance and practicality making them a unique and desirable option for those seeking something different from the mainstream.
