the gas prices claim another victim
 

since gas prices have gotten ridiculous and from what i have read there are only going to get higher i made a decision that it was time to trade in the dodge on something a little more economical. so what did I buy you may be wondering. well i didn't buy new because i didn't want a bigger payment. so i bought a 2006 Subaru Legacy GT. I was thinking about a WRX but i couldn't find one in my price range. so this is kinda the best of both worlds, in comfortable as hell, its bigger than the WRX but its got WRX power. anyway heres a pic of it. Its nice to go from 13 MPG to 27....its gonna save me some money

Great looking car. I've always liked that style Legacy GT and the color. :nod:

good luck with it.

Subaru's are good cars IMO, nice buy

Absolutely.

That's one of my favorite cars actually. Gas prices are set to drop big time next month though by the way. Not saying you didn't make a good choice, but at least you'll be relieved a bit.

Do some searching, those cars have some really interesting hidden features. For example, they can be programmed to wish you a happy birthday and remind you of your anniversary.

My dad and I both have subbys remember when you use the ac push auto twice and it sets economy mode so it only runs at the higher rpm and saves on fuel a bit

you guys are failing to realize... with a little work, those can surprise a LOT of people

Gas could be down to $2 a gallon and I'd STILL want to save cash on it. Good decision and nice ride.

I don't think that was ever a doubt. The drivetrain is straight out of a STI. I think the real surprise is what a few suspension mods can do to that chassis to make it handle.

Cobb Accessport tune and you will have a lot of fun.

Nice. good luck with it.

Four door cars are the best! lol

Nice find, good luck with it! I was looking to compare that body-style Legacy GT to the G35x, but couldn't find one back in February. I love my G35x, but I'm sure the Legacy gets slightly better MPG.


:werd:

good luck with it man. the price of gas claimed my 2004 Silverado HD2500 just a month ago. it got 12 mpg :shock: i bought a 2011 Malibu that gets 33 mpg.

thing that sucks is i could have used thst truck for a dozen things already :evil:

the best part about it is that its basically a WRX with a smaller intercooler and its surprisingly quick even stock. yeah i was getting about 12 MPG in my dodge, this is EPA rated at 27, but im actually doing better than that if I drive it easy.

oh yeah and my payment is a little less and my insurance went down AND it's gonna cut my gasoline bill in half.....every penny counts

what did you trade in for it that your payment went down?

i traded in my 03 Ram 2500, i got them to cover the whole pay off, and i bought a warrantee on this car and it still worked out to be less

I like Legacys, good looking car. I think you got yourself a better vehicle IMO.

some 18 inch kosei's would look good on there...

Very nice, i have always liked that bodystyle for the Legacy. Nice find

looks good man ive always liked subarus

:lol:
