Well this is it. I bought a 2008 Legacy FULLY LOADED in august 08 becasue i needed a car to commute which was good on gas and i wanted to buy something to keep for a few years. Now that i came to realize the economy didnt get better and becasue i work for a finance company i think i need to get smart on a few things and clean up the garage. The following is what i posted on the subaru forums. Before you read below please take in consideration if this doesnt go the typhoon will have to. The economy sucks at least for me it does. I worry about my job every day. With a family and home to take care of prioritizing is the only way right now......



First of all I must say this car is great!!! I love everything about it from the AWD to the SI Drive and power. The car is a 2008 LGT limited FULLY LOADED.

The story is this...I was in the process of looking for a car that I could drive no matter what types of weather we had. I had ALOT of SUV’s in the past but never owned an AWD car. When I had someone interested in my ford explorer I went on the hunt to see what was out there. I always loved the Subaru’s but never had the chance to own one until now. I looked for a few weeks before I found this prime example of a great car.

The sticker was 35K and have it to prove it. The car was ordered for a GM manager at least is what I was told and was never picked up. I wonder why hahah GM isnt doing that well...

The car has the following..

White exterior with tan leather HEATED seats
NAV
XM radio built in to factory radio with 6 disc cd changer
Automatic with slap shifters on the steering wheel
Sunroof
extended armrest
Chrome trim package
Rear wing
Mud flaps
Mirror home link.
Cargo nets in trunk
Hood bug guard
Tinted windows professional done 30% all around
Subaru Remote starter
Typhoon k&n intake
Trailer hitch
Clear 3m cover for headlights and yellow for the fogs
6 year 80K miles extended warranty

The car just hit 13k miles. The oil changes have been completed at the dealership.

I live in Westchester NY. If interested just let me know you can come and see it anytime you want after 6pm or all day Saturday and Sunday.

Price $24,500. Title in HAND!! NEG...show me the money.

What kind of highway mileage do you get? Been thinking about replacing my wife's daily driver, but she drives about 80 miles a day, almost all highway.

This car is unbelievable on gas. I have seen my credit cards decrease becasue of the lack of gas it uses. I get about 24.9 to 27mpg.

Example... I drove to boston with my wife just for a one day get away and i had a quarter tank of gas leaving my house. AN hour into the drive i filled it using premium gas which i always use and it cost me 27 dollars to fill it up. I went to boston and drove back home the next day on that full tank of gas. I actually had a little bit less then a quarter left over so basically a full tank for an 8 hour drive. This is what i will miss.

Good luck with the sale. You must not be thinking of daily driving the TY, so what is going to be your daily driver?

Not the typhoon at all. I am thinking about a 2000 or newer gmc jimmy or chevy blazer. Something like that i really dont know until i sell the subaru and return my wifes truck off lease which ends in april and then see how i am financially and go from there. This economy really is hitting me hard. I work for a finance company so you can understand how i feel every day. Just another thing to worry about. This sucks..

If I wasn't so upside down in my Envoy, I'd sell it and jump on this in a heartbeat. Going to have to think about going more into debt. I love the Legacys though, and it's a good color too.

Honestly i dont need to get rid of the TY. I think if i get rid of the subaru i will be fine but who knows. If your interested in the ty give me an offer it wont hurt but remember im not giving it away. I will work as much as i can price wise with the subaru not with the ty.

Thanks

Re: 2008 Subaru Legacy Limited

want a 2001 zr2 blazer with 103k miles?

even with the blazer as partial trade i probably can't afford the subaru, even though i do like it.

He had a buyer and was working out details, hopefully he is successful. I'd buy it, but I can't afford it, nor do I want to beat the piss out of it. I drive my saturn for that.

The sale DID NOT WORK OUT. The car is still available. The time frame, money transfer and the delivery was not going to work out. Even though i was going to deliver the car 5 hours from me pay for gas food and a transporation to get back home it still wasnt enough.

What ever...CAR IS STILL FOR SALE. I will make a deal that someone with money in hand and ready to buy a car cant refuse.
