Leebo Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I own an 86 GL10 with a d/r fwd tranny and a 2" lift. (needs some love but what subie doesnt) about 180k on both motor and tranny. I also own a 95 Legacy L 5spd with aobut 196k that burns oil pretty bad, but the AC works which is nice in the summer. I have the chance to buy a 93 Legacy alltime 4WD with 185k for about $700. The AC doesnt work and the blower motor only blows high for the heat. My wife may kill me if i bring home another Subaru but isnt it worth it? $700 is a bargain here in Montana for one of these little tanks. Comes with two sets of tires on wheels. Might be a fun one to throw some Outback struts on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Maybe you can Obtain that $ 700.ºº Legacy, fix the A/C and... Give it to your Wife, so both of you will be Happy! Kind Regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 She can only kill you so many times! Just buy some flowers and surprise her one morning before you sneak the new Subaru into the driveway. Lol My dad just bought a $20k truck and didn't tell his wife about it until he got home with it. At least you're not buying a $20k Subaru! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olnick Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Of course you should buy it. How averse are you to pain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyhorse001 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 My ex told me that if i buy another subaru she was gone...i dont miss her one bit! My current wife feeds the addiction lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) if there's no compelling reason let it go. A cheap car is seldom cheap without reason. Sub $1,000 Subarus are rarely gems but not impossible to find either. What's your end goal? More cars work or maintenance, or flip it or help someone or different car - buy it Reliability longevity and practical finances - leave it.

vtwinjunkie Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 you dont need AC in bozeman! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leebo Posted December 11, 2016 Author Share Posted December 11, 2016 Yeah Im buying it. I love the all time 4wd feel. The thing really gets up and goes compared to my 95. I did try to convice my wife to take my 95. She is not really keen on learning how to drive a manual even though I told her it's safer in the winter. She loves her little Toyota Celica. Insert puke emoji. Thanks for the input! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
