    I'm leaving you

    For Subaru :p

    Picked up a 91 Legacy Turbo. There's no accurate official production numbers for it, but they're pretty rare. The 91 was the only year with LSD, and apparently it has front and rear LSD, which I haven't had a chance to check yet.

    I was getting sick of the e30, I've only owned e30s since I was 15, and wanted something new anyway, and after coming here for school I decided AWD would be a good idea, and I found this. 137k miles, 5 speed of course, has almost all the same features as the e30, the only thing I don't have but I want is the check panel...But it has an auto up/down driver side window, a moon roof, headlights that automatically turn off when you turn off the car, and some other crap I don't remember.



    Needs a new clutch, and a couple very minor issues need to be addressed(literally a couple) but all in all it's in great shape.

    I don't expect any of you to understand, and yea I'll miss the e30, but it's time to move on, and I've been wanting something like this for a while, something that's pretty uncommon, that no one really knows what it is.

    So I probably won't be spending any time here anymore after this thread, have a few things to sell, but the e30 will be gone next week.

        Do you really need AWD for making the trip across the state? My e30 on Ireland's has no issues. Oil pan drags in the snow, but its all good.

          Need? No, but it helps. It's not so much the pass, that's not a problem. It's partially the snow in Pullman, but mostly I love to ski :p and the only ski area I can get to in the e30 is Snoqualmie.

          I actually almost got stuck down the hill from my house. I live in Fairwood and work at Ikea, it snowed while I was working, and I had to get a 40mph running start to get up the hill by Kentridge.

          Also I'm just sick of the e30.

          And since my sig isn't showing up, here's what I'm leaving:

            That's funny, I've been thinking of selling my IS300 and getting a Subaru of some sort, likely a WRX.

            Whats the bolt pattern on your new ride? 5x114.3?

            Is this your car?? Here is the site: click here

            Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

                Nah, that's not it. Mine was Purchased new in Auburn, and lived in Kent it's whole life until summer 08 when the guy I bought it from bought it. Oh it's got all of the records from the original owner too.

                Haha, I don't post here as much as bf.c but just thought I'd let you guys know too. I was slowly starting to convert since they don't actually know what could be wrong with cars, haha, but that's not gonna happen anymore, I'll come back in a few years when I buy an m3

                  I still think the one in the pic I posted is yours. How much did it set you back?

                    I'll check the bumper, I don't think it has those marks though, it also has a small dent on the door, and tinted windows.

                    It was $3500, which would have been great, if the seller disclosed everything. Still a decent price though, especially considering how good of shape it will be in once I get a clutch. Driving in downtown I didn't get to the speed where the clutch slips.

                    And the bolt pattern I'm not sure, I've been told 5x100, it's the same as a WRX I know that much.

                            Reminds me of mine

                            It was my first car, auto transmission took a crap on me and cost $1700, it was sold shortly thereafter.
