mschmidt Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 All, My Type-S is for sale and as soon as it sells my wife and I plan to pick up a 06' LGT. 5MT is a must and I really want satin white. I did some searching on Subaru.com but the search feature is really tedious forcing you to search by dealer only. Any other ideas? The rebate on the 06' with 2% below invoice makes it in our price range. We live in SE Michigan but I will drive fairly far if I find one. Let me know. fyi... my car is listed here: http://forums.clubrsx.com/showthread.php?t=430541 Autotrader: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=211620804&dealer_id=58785085&car_year=2005&search_type=both&num_records=25&make=ACURA&transmission=&model=RSX&distance=25&make2=&address=48855&advanced=&certified=&max_mileage=&max_price=&bkms=1162214420282&sort_type=priceDESC&min_price=&body_code=0&end_year=2007&color=&start_year=1981&drive=&engine=&fuel=&doors=&style_flag=1&cardist=0 Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mschmidt Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 OK, I spent the time and went through all the dealers in Michigan and only found 2 5MT's and they were both blue. Any other ideas? Maybe my only choice is to buy a used one or suck it up and get a 07'... too bad the rebates aren’t high enough yet and I hate the rims!

mschmidt Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 Ohio=nothing but a few Spec B's. Indiana had nothing. It would take me all night to search the country... any faster ways?

mschmidt Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 nice... 2 white ones in Chicago with 5MT. One was just under 28K and the other was about 30K. I will send them an email and start dealing... Of course the Acura would have to sell. Thanks... Any other info is welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mschmidt Posted November 7, 2006 Author Share Posted November 7, 2006 Are there any 05's left anywhere? As well, does anyone know of any 06' SWP 5MT's in your area? I looked on Subaru.com (this literally took me hours!): Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Delaware, Michigan, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, New York, North Carolina, and Maryland (17 states!) I only found 4 SWP's and cannot get any of them for the price I want (25K OTD). I am getting close though (25.8K OTD). Let me know guys. The more ammunition the better.

mschmidt Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 Well, my RSX has a pending sale... For an LGT, I am still thinking used: I found this one on Autotrader... I called and they said $20,500 before ttt. Anyone think this is a good deal? http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=211348116&dealer_id=58174643&car_year=2005&num_records=25&search_type=used&make=SUB&keywordsfyc=&distance=0&model=LEGACY&transmission=Manual&address=48855&make2=&certified=&advanced=y&default_sort=priceDESC&max_mileage=&max_price=&sort_type=priceDESC&min_price=&first_record=51&body_code=0&end_year=2006&color=&keywordsrep=&start_year=2005&drive=&pager.offset=50&engine=&style_flag=1&doors=&fuel=&cardist=264 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmac33 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Have you bought a LGT yet, because I might be able to get you LGT 06 manual just tell me how much you want to spend and what you three favorit colors are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mschmidt Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 I have narrowed it down to SWP, but may consider the silver or atlantic blue if the price was right. My best offer so far is 24.2K for an SWP (25.8 OTD). I am also now considering used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCType-S Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 cmac33, can you help me out here too because I'm also looking to buy a LGT manual as well in Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mschmidt Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 CCType-S, cmac33 never replied to me if I remember correctly. I did get a dealer on this forum shoot me some prices but they were higher than my best price so far. I have a huge spreadsheet going of LGT's new and used that are 5MT in ABP, SWP, and BSM only. If you are looking for another color, you will have to do the research all over again. I will be more than welcome to share this with you when I get a chance. I am just slammed at work and with trying to complete the sale of my RSX and shipping to NV. O yea, I need to find an LGT now too! Very busy! A brief breakdown... Best I have found in the Northeast is 24.2K for a new 06’. I am working on used now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCType-S Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Yeah, that will be great if you can share some information. Please check your PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mschmidt Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 Well guys... I bought my LGT yesterday. 05' SWP with charcoal interior, 18K on the odometer. Took an Amtrak to Pittsburgh and drove it back yesterday afternoon. Not the best pic, but all I have for now. The pinstrip will be the first thing to go! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/mschmidt/DSC04777.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegGTLT Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Were you able to get them down ALOT on that asking price? Seems like they were shooting for the moon with that price...

psucaptainkickass Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 That is by far the best color Now drop it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mschmidt Posted November 14, 2006 Author Share Posted November 14, 2006 I would love to, but to do it properly is not cheap (coilovers, or springs/shocks). I can afford the springs alone right now, but am worried about the shock life... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 No sense dropping it just in time for winter, anyway. Save up and do it right in the spring time. Congrats on the new ride!
