November 25, 200421 yr I have never seen one until today. Nor have I seen the pimp interior that is talked about from time to time, until today. Same with the digi dash. I thought my gl10 was the top-o-the-line for the 88's. Until I saw this one. It has that push button lsd 5spd too.
November 25, 200421 yr Author hahahah....I bought it!!! Its in my garage right now....88 dark blue wagon awd full time with button lsd 5spd. A little more rust than I wanted but not too bad. Power sunroof and digi dash with computer. Plus the PIMP interior!!! 200 bucks with blown hg. That thing scoots good. Couldnt pass it up for 200 bucks
November 26, 200421 yr it's blue with a red interior? post pics please (or drive it to brian's on sunday)
November 26, 200421 yr ... push button lsd 5spd too. Ok, I am sleep depraved, and sometimes a little dim, but "AWD" and bushbutton 5sp seem contradicatory. I have a FT4WD EA82T... ... but it is an automatic. I was given a FT4WD, difflock, LSD... ... but someone else took it first. Maybe not too rare. Except mine don't have pimp interiors. TTFN! Pat
November 26, 200421 yr Author forgive my confusing post as I am stuffed with t-day food!!! Its the pimp blue interior. Its a 5spd. Its full time 4wd. Its an ea82 turbo. It has the diff selection knob. The rear diff has the lsd label. And it was only 200 bucks.
November 26, 200421 yr schweeet....how do you like the looks of it ?now that you have her in your stable?
November 26, 200421 yr Those are cool cars, I have an '88 wagon and have owned two other '88 wagons and a '87 sedan, all FT 4wd, diff lock, LSD, etc, etc, etc...They are pretty rare, I had a window sticker for one, they were around $18,000, a lot for a car in 1988!
November 26, 200421 yr i have a 88 turbo full time 4wd gl-10 turbo a/t wagon - air struts, , and i have not seen any in any junk yards , so yes rare buy it
November 26, 200421 yr I got my '89 RX with the FT4WD and LSD for 150 bucks from a j/y cause "Its just a Subaru" and I can probably get the whole 5-lug conversion for 50-100 bucks as well. But alas, mine is too an auto.....but not for long!!!
November 26, 200421 yr this morning up in the pick and pull in newark I saw both a GL10 wagon 5sp FT4wd turbo w/ LSD and all, AND I saw a GL10 turbo auto FT4wd with unforunately an open rear end. I gotta find out who keeps on jacking all the lSDs from the junkyards around here. BUT if anyone wants that full time 4wd 5 speed tranny, its still there. and its 25% off weekend. Also there was a set of pug steelies 14" that if someone makes me a good offer on I will get them before I leave.
December 1, 200421 yr Author http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showgallery.php?cat=618 Here are some pics finally. What do you think of the rusted areas?? The frame one is the one that concerns me. These rusted areas seem to be isolated, so thats a plus to the downside.

These rusted areas seem to be isolated, so thats a plus to the downside. I dont think its an issue. Just clean it up and seal it so the rust does not spread.
December 1, 200421 yr That frame will be best repaired with some fresh metal, I think looks like a nice car! I like that color blue a lot. That interior is not THE Pimp Interior but the velour "la-z-boy" style still gets pimp points. I've seen them in blue and grey, don't know if they made tan as well... judging from your pictures you must live somewhere on the east side? (style of houses) also check your PMs.
December 1, 200421 yr I just saw one yesterday in Boise. It was cherry...was being driven by some young betty. All I could think was, "she probably doesn't even know how cool her car is".... Congrats on your new ride! Cheers, Chris
December 1, 200421 yr That interior looks just like mine with the seats and stuff. What makes up the "pimp" interior?
December 1, 200421 yr here are pics of the "pimp" interior.... http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo23/100_0205_001 http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo23/100_0206 http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo23/100_0207 http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo23/100_0208 Trogdor posted those pics a while back.... I have a 87 Wagon with a gray base interior, but it's got the red front seats, and RX seatbelts front and back. back seat is brown, as well as rear cargo carpet. no other carpets on the floors. drivers seat has a nice sheepskin cover. it's a smorgasboard of color
