MrVvrroomm Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 I stopped on my way in to work this morning to grab a quick cup of coffee. A guy walks up to me in the coffee shop and asks, "is that a Legacy?" I tell him it is and he wants to know what's up with the hood scoop. I tell him it's an '05 Legacy GT wagon. He's very intrigued. I start telling him about it and he says he was just at Subaru's website looking at cars. He's wanting to replace the car he has now. He also tells me he doesn't want to give up any of the performance of the car he's driving now for that of a wagon. I start laughing and point to his car and say, "is that your car?" A '97 Infiniti J20t. I told him he wouldn't be giving up any of the performance of his Sentra...errrr J20t. I didn't dis him with the Sentra comment. That's just what was going through my mind as I was talking to him. I have a feeling there's a LGT in his future. Just my funny Sub story on my way to work.

Drift Monkey Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Laughing and pointing at his car was a good way of convincing him to trade up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IwannaSportSedan Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 [Lumberg voice] "Um, yeah, the scoop... See, there is a little thing called a TURBO under there." "J20t, you say? Um, yeah. We should have a little talk about that. See, This car has more performance, actually. And also isn't hindered by that front driven torque steer, mmmmkay? And also have your TPS reports on my desk by the end of the day. With the new cover sheets." [/Lumberg voice] J20t to a Legacy GT turbo with AWD would be a step up, I would think, rather than a lateral move. Quote of the post: "I wouldn't exactly say I've been missing [work], Bob!"

Driver72 Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 You mean G20t?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Must be the G20t, I remember those cars I had a roomate that had one. It was as far as I could tell a Nissan Sentra in a party dress, except it weighed more than the sentra and was even more sluggish. Can any of you imagine a Lexus version of the Corolla? Man that would be pointless, and so was the G20t. Hell the Japanese manufacturers usually learn from the mistakes others have made. The Cadillac Cimaron should stand as a shining example of what happens when you do the luxury treatment to a sh*t box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrVvrroomm Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 You mean G20t?? G, J whatever. It was still a POS. It was 5:30 am and I'm not really a vintage Infiniti enthusiast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awdG35killer Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 You mean G20t?? wasnt there a J30 sedan made? anyway, if he doessnt know about his old ass car, theres no telling how he'd go about with an LGT. "uh...i have a hood scoop...duuuuuh...and a super duper charger thingy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostjunkie Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 There was a J30. Wierd ass looking car. The trunk was smashed down like it had just gotten run over by a monster truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wunderkind Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 the j30t looked like an aspirin especially when it's white in colour. It was one of the first attempt into the luxo business by Infinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
