In order of acquisition:

 

1971 Ford F-100 302 4 on the floor

1982 Ford LTD Crown Vic 302 AOD

1983 Merc Cougar 3.8L V6 Auto

1992 Chry. LeBaron 'Vert 3.0 Auto

1976 Ford F150 390 C6.. never took delivery.. stolen.

2002 Dodge Neon ES 2.0L Auto (NEW)

2003 Ford Mustang V6 5-speed (NEW)

1991 Plymouth Colt 1.5L 4-Speed

1980 Kawasaki KZ1000

1992 Mercury Grand Marquis 4.6L Auto

1992 Honda Civic DX 1.5 5-speed

1999 Chevy Prism 1.8L Auto

1978 Honda GL1000 Goldwing (still have)

1996 Ford Aspire 1.3L 5-speed

1996 Subaru Impreza Outback 2.2L 5-speed

2005 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT 3.8L Stow-n-Go

2005 Honda Pilot EX-L 3.5L Auto (still have)

 

Sold the Impreza in preparation for the 2006 LGT 5-speed. Waiting to take delivery..

 

LGT specs? 63k - engine went boom (first owner) - traded at Subaru dealer.. current dealer bought from Subaru dealer.. currently in process of rebuilding engine. FULL OCD MAINTENANCE HISTORY. The original owner was fanatical about maintenance. Maintenance doesn't help a lick when your oil pump pickup snaps in half...

 

Anyway, I've been shopping heavily and this is the specific car I am buying. There is no question. Waiting sucks.

 

My ownership has an interesting pattern to it... first cars.. cheap.. next cars.. I had a decent job.. lost job.. went back to beaters.. new job.. nice cars again. As I said, interesting.

In order, I had

two 1988 Honda CRXs

1988 Honda Civic hatchback

1990 Honda Accord coupe

1992 Honda Accord coupe

 

I still have the HB, though engine is out, and '92 coupe which is on it's way out. I miss the fuel economy on them but the Legacy is way more comfortable than those two and climbs mountains much better.

I posted earlier but no pictures. I can't find any of the 1987 Dodge Aries SE (you're not missing anything). The 1997 Saturn SL2 had a built 11:1 N/A motor making 170 crank hp and weighed less than a Miata, it ran high 14's and handled decent. The 2004 Impala SS had a few bolt on's and a middle of the road cam and ran high 13's with tractionless 60's and got 28mpg. It handled like a marshmallow.

Very 1st car 1993/4? Impreza L station wagon, FWD only. It was the family hand-me down, and my parents eventually donated it to charity.

 

2001 Impreza 2.5RS coupe. Parents bought it for me just before I turned 17, after 6-7 months of good driving with the wagon. I bought it from them a few years ago once I graduated from college.

 

Picked up a '99 Miata in Fall of 2011, with 38.5k miles on it. She's at 46k now, and I plan to keep her for a long time.

 

Bought the Legacy two weeks ago, and will be selling the RS as soon as I find time to clean it up and take pictures. It's living with my mom right now, as back up for her 250k+ mile CRV (she's buying a new car this year).

Which flavor of engine swap did you do? I put a '00 Vortec in my '87. Made it a lot more driveable every day. I do miss the bottom end torque of the stock 2F tractor engine sometimes, though. :wub:
