I finally joined your ranks and just have to show off my new ride

 

 

 

And my personal favorite:

Wow!!! nice ride you picked up man!! and the mileage is SUPER low!!!! Great find, how much did it run you?

Well, I bought from a family friend and it was a steal at $3k

I wouldn't call that a steal, but it has really low mileage and it's AWD.

Well, then those people are rather stupid to pay that much for a car with 200k.

Great buy. I wish you the very best of luck with it as well as many years of ownership. I'm pushing 187K on my '91 Legacy wagon and it's still one of the best cars I've ever owned.

you definitly won't have that problem But i think the timing belt is due. because after all these years, it probably deteriated, and the older design belts were made to last i belive like 80k. Or less.

Wow, that is one shweet looking ride Sis. What year is it? Does the engine look as good as the rest of the car? Did you get maintenance records from the previous owner--or do you already know the car's history?

Got your PM, and you're right, it WILL look great with the alloys on it. I'll PM you was soon as we know our upcoming road trip schedule. I'm looking forward to a long I-90 run in the new Outback ... The Pretty One is DREADING IT ... AS USUAL.

Yep, I hear that! My 90 is pushing 285,000! Original engine was replaced and I don't know when or how many miles the old one had nor how many the new one has. But I replaced the 4EAT myself and it's got 150,000 on it. It's from a 94 legacy.

My 93 leg has almost 300k(km).

She's a 93, and yes the engine bay is spotless and the interior is mint. Even the visors are nice and springy . I don't have the maintenace records, but was told (and trust) that it had it's oil changed religously and the 30k service done on time. And it only took me one day of my 80 mile commute to decide that an automatic isn't such a bad thing afterall. Oh! It has cupholders!!! As a long time GL driver for cupholders!

 

mtsmiths- I can't wait for thoes wheels!!!

For that engine with those miles you pretty much bought a new car for 3 grand! Congrats. And many happy miles to you.

Wow... that is a snag! I thought I found a low mileage car when I bought my '91 with 97k miles in January, but wow!

 

Yeah, the belts on these are supposed to be 60k interval, so get ready to replace 'em. Wouldn't be a bad idea to flush the ATF, either.

Well, then those people are rather stupid to pay that much for a car with 200k.

 

ERICEM's from Ontario so I think he's referring to KM (not miles) and CDN buck (85 cent US).

 

Also the price varies depending where you are. Check out what 1st gen Legacys go for in British Columbia....

ya, its crazy the prices there, i forgot when i saw it, but a 92 legacy in the same condition as my car sold on ebay in BC for $9000+ CDN. Pretty crazy, totally stock just very clean, nothing so clean, that i could not do with my car.
