Urbanrunner Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Hope I put this in the right place, not sure what this is, but it looks as though Carmax is selling an 08 2.5i or a gt....lol take a look at the pics, car doesn't look bad, just looks as though it may have an identity crisis. Even aftermarket nav!......what do u guys think? http://www.carmax.com/enus/view-car/default.html?AVi=2&id=7362336&D=90&ASTc=08%20subaru%20legacy&zip=45885&pD=0&pI=0&pT=400&pC=200&pB=0&No=0&Ep=homepage:homepage&Rp=R&PP=20&sV=List&CD=966+190+398+9&Q=8b32eea9-d326-4a4f-a7c4-9704c2580848 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sulk Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 If it weren't for the manual aircon controls it may have actually passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanrunner Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 I know its not, by the engine pics and the front end....but it has a gt label on the trunk lid (swapped?) headlights that are blacked out, a black lip, fog lights, and an aftermarket nav system......seems pretty hooked up for a 2.5i!? Still not as cool though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk6933 Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Why didn't you part out your car before you trade it in? Or swap some parts over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanrunner Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 I wanted a fresh start, and i actually got more for the car with the parts on it...i am guessing its because carmax is not familiar with every car and what is stock or not. I have the bronze color car, and i didn't think black would look good on it, but now i am thinking it might....i will do new things to this car!

MatsuDano Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Move on and never look back, you won't regret it. Plus, now you can get all snobby like the rest of us GT owners when an N/A'er asks us how to turbo his 2.5i. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmx045 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Once you go stage 1 you'll wonder why you didnt get a GT in the first place...atleast I did. My 09 2.5i was slow as sh1t! I woulda saved money if I got a GT first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbanrunner Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Why did you put a LGT badge on it I didn't put a LT badge on it, i did a trunk swap with a fellow member on here, and never got around to taking the "GT" part off before i sold it!

Urbanrunner Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 We know how it called AVO and you can Thank Paul Well the 2.5iSE was my first subaru, although it was slow, it was fun to drive, and actually had this thing called torque that every Honda i ever owned lacked! So yes i am very pleased with my GT, but that is not to say i am against NA applications either, i mean come on..i used to have a 1992 "grandma green" honda accord non-vtec (wasn't made in that year), SOHC 2.2 liter motor. i lowered it, put a three inch exhaust on it, intake and even turbo charged it! Still not the same! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imprezsing04 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 almost 18k? man! I think i should try and trade my 2.5i into carmax! I wonder how much id get... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanrunner Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Big difference between what they sell it for and what they pay you for it! I bought that 2.5iSE 2 and a half years ago with 20 thousand miles. I only put 10 grand on it since i owned it and took pretty good care of it. i paid $16500 when i bought it, and they paid me pretty close to what i paid for it, so i could not resist. Your story could be different, and i got a hell of a deal when i bought it! PLus when trading in for the gt i was excited too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imprezsing04 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Well I only owe about 11.5k left on the car, that's why if I got close to 16k...I'd have 4.5 to down on something else. But I've been driving a lot and have 58k now on an 08 which is a little high. Bought it last year with 33k miles on it. So, I think mileage will really kill what they offer me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
