Bump

Price drop to $14,500.

FYI The VIN is wrong, I am pretty sure your Spec.b is not a wagon.

Corrected - thanks for pointing that out. The previous VIN was a previous car of mine.

Previous potential buyer’s bank fell through, car is available again.

Since the OP, I have reverted it back to stock - swapped back to factory radio, etc.

In the future, I may swap grille, short-throw-shifter, and steering wheel also.

Price dropped to $14,900 for the cleanest SpecB for sale in the country. Will update pictures shortly and add undercarriage photos.

Year, Make, Model: 2008 Subaru Legacy GT SpecB

Color: QSM - Quartz Silver Metallic

Location: College Station, Texas, USA 77840

Price: $14,500 - SOLD @ Asking

Title: No-lien, my-name, TX (no hail or salvage, clean title)

Mileage: 86,500

Transmission: 6MT (SpecB)

VIN: 4S3BL696183225399

Rust: None, none whatsoever. Previously a California-only car for ~10 years where it was mostly garaged by LGT.org members and fellow enthusiasts.

I shopped SpecB’s for about 2 years (on this forum, nationwide) before I bought this one in 2017. This is the cleanest example that you’ll find in the wild. Every Subaru tech that has worked on or inspected this car has complimented the car and its condition. I am reluctantly selling this as I currently have 5 Subarus and need to downscale prior to moving later this year.

Any problems: front driver-side rotor needs to be turned.

Recent Maintenance:

Interior (9 / 10)

Also…

Yes. My V1 filter element collapsed creating a fine bypass. I think there is a picture on my motor build thread. Sourced the V2 filter and haven't had an issue yet. Cleaned out once so far. Unfortunately the outside diameter is different and you'll not be able to use the v1 mounting bracket. I am lucky to have a friend with a bridgeport and scrap aluminum so we made a new bracket.

I think I'd prefer to just bypass the filter altogether - has anyone done this with issues?

I inherited one of these from an old project car and I am considering putting it my daily driver when I add a BNR Evo3 16g next month.

Has anyone removed the Bolan filter element and reported problems?

Edit: V1 (non-anodized)

 

2008 - 653

380 were DGM

271 were QSM

2 were color code 01W [Premium Red?] (Likely preproduction test or promo cars)

Holy crap - I had no idea that my car was so rare

I thought there were several thousand of these cars made! Cool

That looks a lot like my old spec.B.

It was a California car before I bought it and shipped it to Texas.i <80k miles
