PopsicleMud Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I'm researching a replacement for my '92 Loyale wagon. One reason I have a wagon is to carry my 10" dobsonian telescope, which is basically a 5 foot long piece of 12" Sonotube with a mirror and a focuser attached. If I get a sedan, either an Impreza or a Legacy, do they have a big enough pass-through from the trunk or a fold-down rear seat for my telescope? A fold-down, split rear seat would be ideal so I could have a passenger in the back and the telescope sticking through from the trunk.

Manarius Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Depends on the year, but I think only the upgraded (ie not L) models of Legacy's have pass through (not full fold down). However, I may be mistaken. Why not just get a wagon and be done with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlsimpso Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 I agree, get a wagon. You can get a lot more in the back. The Legacy sedans should have folding seats until 04-05, whenever they went to the new model. I believe the Impreza lost the folding seats in 02' when the new front end came out. The pass though in the Legacy is about size of the fold down arm rest. I think the open is less then 8 inches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopsicleMud Posted November 15, 2006 Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 Thanks for the info, guys. I would like to get a wagon, but i figured being open to sedans too would give me more flexibility in buying. I do kind of like the old Legacy Sport turbo sedans, and some of them have been showing up on craigslist in my expected price range. What I'd really like is an Impreza wagon.

1 Lucky Texan Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 You got a base for your 'scope and probably a chair and other gear. And you might wanna share a ride with someone someday with similar gear. I say - fold down. Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the 92-94 Sport Sedans have the split rear folding seat. You can hold 2 passengers in the back and have the telescope poking through the small side.

Then find a 92-94 Touring Wagon. Turbo + Wagon = awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlsimpso Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 I hope your friends are thin. I couldn't image sitting two people in the 60 split side for very long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ehh, it would just be for bragging rights. You could also fit a small one in the center seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
