Joined the Subaru family, just not an Impreza
After a complete mightmare at the Subaru dealership I was going to buy my outback sport at, I ended up buying a Legacy GT Wagon. I LOVE this car.
 I was wondering if there's any kind of website devoted to Legacy's? If not, I'm sure I can learn alot about my new car here since alot of it is the same. I made a few assumptions about the car. Am I correct in my thinking that all of the bolt ons available for the Impreza will work on my Legacy?? Any websites or information I can gather on this sucker would be appreciated! Its hard learning about a completely different brand of car, this is the first non VW I have owned in 10 years!  *edit* How come my sig doesn't show up????

welcome. but first, the sigs are disabled on this board.
second, most things for the impreza 2.5rs (MY99-01) are compatable with your car. I have to say, I love your car too  if the legacy turbo comes back over here, I will get one. granted the car is a little heavy, but a major suspension upgrade, and who cares good luck with her |

What a gorgeous wagon. I pass a 2000 black Legacy GT Wagon on my way to work everyday and really think it looks great. Yours looks even better. My wife has 1995 Legacy wagon. Check out the Legacy Forum here (including the archives). Lots of valuable information and tips.

Wow, that is a beautiful wagon.. You had a nightmare at your Subaru dealership too?? I had the same problem, what's with that?? I thought about a Legacy GT wagon before I got my RS, but I couldn't quite justify the extra cost for something I didn't need... Besides, the girlfriend hates wagons, I never would have heard the end of it.. I occasionaly kick myself, especially when I see one like that.. Oh well. After my dad drove my RS, he went out and bought mom an Outback, that's the first non-Ford she's ever had ...well anyhow, welcome to the family!!

 I never scrolled down far enough to even see the Legacy forum... DOH! Anyways, thanks for the compliments. My wife and I are really enjoying the car. Its also the first AWD car I've ever owned. We were originally going to buy an Outback Sport, but that fell through and we weren't treated with any respect so we went to another dealer who was absolutely wonderful, Wagner Subaru in Fairborn, Ohio... Very cool guys to deal with and the owner drives a pretty slick yellow WRX. They gave us a more than fair trade ($6000) price on my Wife's 1996 Jetta which was great considering the other dealer insulted me with their trade offer, if you could call it that, on my 2000 GTI VR6 ($14,000). I realize you never get what your car is worth for a trade, but 14k for a car that would sell for 19k is rediculous!!!! The good dealer was ready to give me $16,8 but I ended up selling it for $17,5. I'm looking forward to absorbing as much info about this car as I possibly can. |

Congrats! I was driving next to a black GT wagon the other day and gave the driver a big smile and thumbs up. He looked at me like, "What the hell? You wanna hitchhike??"
Legacy owners are definitely welcome here too -- they're 90% the same as Imprezas anyway, only with better interiors. |

VeryVERYveryVERY nice! I ALMOST got a GT instead of my RS, but I liked the engine power in a smaller car. *shrug*
Otherwise I think the Legacy's the sweeter deal, if you ask me. -S2- |

Very, very nice! I was just looking at a black one like yours and a silver one, too!! My next car may very well be the GT wagon...hopefully with the 6 cyl or turbo.
BTW, my very first car was the old family wagon, a '69 Ford Country Squire with big 390 V8, so I've always held a spot for wagons in me! Good luck and welcome! |
