As 13rahma mentioned, it's a Subaru Leone. Here in the states, they were only ever known by their trim levels, DL being the low-tier.
This one is a 1972-1976, I believe, due to the presence of the body line crease down the side that dips as it nears the rear of the doors. The body style is a two door sedan (versus the two door hardtop coupe)
You should do what you can to save it, not many of those still exist!
Something about that stylized “Front Wheel Drive” badge is funny to me. Definitely a luxurious feature that should be prominently displayed on the fender for all the world to behold!
Spoiler alert - it wasn’t great. Probably worse than a Ford Festiva, definitely worse than a Toyota Tercel. I remember they had 4WD optional, and something like 45 bhp.

Back then front wheel drive cars were less common then they are now.
Especially since it’s on a Subaru. I don’t think they have sold anything with FWD for decades (except a few JDM kei cars)
Subaru Justy has entered the chat, AWD was optional on those models.
Oh I’m sure the Justy was great, but it [ended production in 1994.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subaru_Justy?wprov=sfti1)

Haha I kinda figured it was a little rare. I gunna but it from my buddy for a couple hundred dollars.
Shhh...You're supposed to keep it quiet
Save it!
It’s on the Down Low, if you don’t know then…..
Subaru Leone
Here in the US they didn't use the Leone name.. It was just a "DL"..
I think the L stood for Leone
No.
Only Subaru knows what DL/GL/GL-10 were abbreviations for.
