yea, washington is kinda far...

 

how bout i meet you half way and you fly me back? :lol:

Well - I don't wish to give offense when I say that your car is a hard sell.

 

It's a 92, yes - but to the members here it might as well be an 89 because it's not a Legacy. 90 to 94 Loyale's were stripped down to make way for the flagship Legacy models - so it's less desireable than a fully equipped 89 GL....

 

It's not 4WD.

 

It's not unbeleivably low mileage, although it's got another 80k or more in it most likely (drivetrain wise).

 

It's got an unknown electrical/fuel injection issue that is going to ultimately take someone throwing parts at to fix (which may be difficult to source in your area). The SPFI can be a bastard to troubleshoot at times.

 

If you fix the problem, I would say try to sell it on craigslist, and make sure the listing comes up under lots of keywords besides Subaru and Loyale. Your best bet is to sell it to someone that just needs transportation not a Subaru "enthusiast" as it's totally not what people here look for.

 

I'm not trying to be mean.... but you did ask so there it is :rolleyes:

What GD said^

 

Its a FWD Sedan with body damage and a fuel/electrical issue..Not really worth a whole lot

 

Think about this...I just GAVE away my 92 Loyale wagon with a ton of extra parts and alot of new stuff already on it..and it runs like a champ...basically needed axles and tires...I started asking around $300

 

Your best bet would be craigslist honestly

Thanks for the replys guys, You basically said what I was thinking. I put it up on craigslist and got a few offeres, Id just prefer to keep it in the family thats all...

if it runs acceptably, and needs tires and some TLC, on craigslist, $500 obo.

 

if it doesnt run quite right, selling it on CL is a hard sell.. period. Under 500 as a posted asking price, and again, OBO.

 

Use a phrase like "better beater than a honda civic, toyota, nissan, ford escort, cavalier" or something like that just to get more search hits.

 

Good luck.. as others have said, you're going to need it to wring much money out of that car.
