SubiGT Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Hmmm, forgot about Australia. Daddy likes Aussie girls. I remember this one time in Melbourne............, sorry, family friendly mind editing in progress:) Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!

phuzaxeman Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Ok, before I read this thread, let me see if I can guess how it went. First, someone asks what percentage of owners have a 5MT vs 5EAT. Around the 4th post, someone starts bitching that the '06's don't come in Manual. Around post 6, someone notes that the '06 OBXT DOES come in a manual Posts 9-11 support post 6 and argue that the OBXT is better than the LGT posts 13-16 bicker back and forth with the LGT owners and OBXT owners. Around post 17, someone points out that you can get an '06 LGT wagon with 5MT in Canada. Following posts bash Canada and SOA Am I close? Now I'll go back and see. Edit: nope. and then #21 post adds to the mayhem! go figure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nsaqam Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I'm new here and just got a brand new '05 Legacy GT Wagon 5MT in Obsidian Black Pearl to replace my recently totalled '98 Audi A4 Avant Quattro 2.8. I love this car! I just started working as a salesman at a Subaru dealer and they had this car on the lot for 712 days before I bought it. I got it for $25000 even despite the $31000 sticker price. I think I got a smoking deal! Gotta love the manual tranny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatman Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I told the dealer if he could get me a wagon with a manual he had a sale, unfortunatly he couldnt get it in black. Car had to be transported 110 miles to my local dealer. I paid 30 large over a year ago, but did OK on my trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also could get a limited OBP with taupe interior (ouch) for 23.5k... Anyway, enjoy your ride! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, enjoy your ride! :-) You need to tell me where you're shopping because even used LGT Limiteds are going for 25 to 27K around here. BTW, what is an "unlimited"? Is it just the base LGT with cloth, single zone climate controls, and no moonroof? No matter what, for my area I got a smoking deal and got the 7 year 100K warranty thrown in. Finally, I like my taupe interior. It doesn't show scratches or get as hot as a black interior does and it has the very nice matte woodgrain accents that the black interior doesn't. The leather isn't nearly as thick as the leather on my BMW 535i though. Softer but how does this Japanese leather hold up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubiGT Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I got my 5MT ltd wgn 1/10/06. It's build date was 01/05. Black wasn't my first choice, neither was taupe leather. But, now I love it, and have NEVER seen another around. Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!
