Subaru Legacy

Postby PXRdriFT » Fri Dec 30, 2011 9:14

In the interest of better gas mileage, I picked up a 2005 Subaru Legacy GT Limited Wagon after selling my 99 4Runner. Nothing major done to it. Upgraded brakes and tint mainly.

nice!
How much did you let the 4runner go for? I've been looking at them all weeks since the last snow storm...

Did you tell Zico you were selling the 4Runner? He would have been interested haha.

That's nice! I was looking at the coupe versions a couple years ago. The non-turbos are a bit sluggish but the turbo model was quick enough. The only problem I had with them is the steering wheel felt so far away, I had to really reach for it. They look great though!

I concur with zmarko.
Seems that Colorado Mazda Club is turning into Colorado Mazda and Subaru Club. I know there me, zmarko, and now PXRdriFT. I feel like there's more though...

I own a Subaru (2008 Impreza 2.5i) but also still own a Mazda. TheNewBlack had moved to an STi but looking at his profile it looks like he's back in an MS3 and didn't tell us about it.

I noticed that as well. Curious about the switch back to Mazda...

Subarus are plenty common here in CO :p There was something on the radio I heard the other day about dumb quotes people say when visiting Colorado and one of them was "So do they just give you a Subaru when you move here?" Obviously pretty fake, but I mean it makes sense lol

They're great because they can handle all kinds of weather. And everyone knows we get all kinds of weather here. Plus they handle driving in the snowy mountains well and a lot of people here go skiing/snowboarding and need that.

Being one of the best cars in the snow is why we bought ours. My wife is scared to death to drive on icy roads so every little bit of confidence we can get her helps.
