Help Identifying 1st gen legacy turbo

Featured Replies

Are there any key factors to spotting a first gen turbo legacy looking through craigslist add pictures?  do all the turbo sedans have the spoiler on the trunk?  i have been searching and searching through craigslist but usually only a small amount of information is posted.  It is far more common to have a bunch of pictures posted and then no information on milage, trans, trim, badging etc etc. 

Anytime the add has "1992 legacy ss turbo"  seems to have a very high pricetag on it.

Sorry for the basic question but im at a loss for exactly which models came with the "holy grail".

Are they really that hard to find?  Thank you for your time.

They all have hood scoops for the intercooler - but I'm not sure if any model came with a cosmetic scoop like the gen 2 GTs. 

 

If they show an under-hood photo, you'll see the intercooler on top of the engine and maybe even the scoop cowl.

no intercooler stock on the US market turbo legacy, look for hood scoop, different front bumper, and usually the spoiler, all had 15" rims stock as well.
