Hi guys I'm interested in buying a Legacy GT Wagon. Please read the post before offering me something I don't want:

 

Requirements:

 

1. Manual trans. Don't offer me your slushmatic I don't want it.

 

2. <$8,000

 

3. No red exterior, just don't like the color.

 

4. No rust

 

5. No major mechanical issues, I don't want your project.

 

Preferences:

 

1. Close to philly and if not, a major airport.

 

2. Black interior

I have a 100 pound giant schnauzer and I am looking at wagons. Anybody have experience with a larger dog in their wagon? I'm worried about the height. Bonus points if you can take/attach a photo for me

I have a random question? How much would it cost to overhaul the OBXT suspension to make it look/handle at least as well as a LGT wagon?

The 2.5i aren't that much cheaper than a GT. For reliable 4th Gen GT, I would pickup a clean one with blown motor. OBXT's are also much more common, do not command the same premium as the 1 year only 5MT Legacy Wagon.

 

 

Isn't the gearing different on the OBXT making it slower?

Thanks for the responses yall. I will keep looking around or just get a different car if I cant find one!

Check the for sale forum here, there's a 2005 with 114,000 miles for $5000 in NJ. It has a JDM engine.

 

These or not like a Honda Civic from the old day's.

 

 

The one for sale is for 5400 with a bunch of problems though. Just reinforcing my point that the only ones I'm seeing for sale have issues

I barely see any legacy gt wagons for sale, and a lot of the ones that are, have issues with blown turbos, cylinder misfires, etc. Turbo/supercharger design has come a long way since these were originally made. I can pick up a n/a wagon for a lot cheaper than a turbo wagon, but I'm wondering if it's worth it?

Can you post a pic of the aftermarket wheels/winter tires?

Damn I just got my total loss insurance check and I'm in philly ><

L8pass, but were those burn marks above the exhaust pipes on the read bumper of your gt2.5? Is that a common issue?
