Help A Noob? WTB: 2000 Legacy L Wagon..Opinions?


Recommended Posts

I am wanting to see what all the fuss is about...When I found these are BOXER motors I got excited...(I have a Gold Wing 1200 with basically same motor...These things should run 300K! Anyway, I found a 2000 Legacy L Wagon, it's filthy but should clean up ok, underside is DIRTY, like they had it down a dirt road a lot, but no leaks, missing the entire RF inner fender, has 136K on the clock, and they want 2700 firm. What else do I look for, and is this a fair price? I can clean it up to be pretty respectable looking...Help a Noob here guys! Thanks,

'Lil Snot-Nosed Tommy

If it is a 2000, it has a 2.5l engine. Stay away from that one. You will find numerous threads here about leaking head gaskets on those engines, and I don't think Subaru has the problem fixed yet.

 

Find a 99 or earlier, if you like the body style with the 2.2l Still a boxer engine, more reliable.
