Do you mind if i ask how much you got it for?

Why would anyone want a WRX over this.

Nice choice buddy.......white imho is the best color for the Legacy GT (would look great with a light tint).

No spoiler?

Now, get that fucking CL out of your avatar.

I thought they ran low 14s stock?

And you gotta really "good" deal on the trade in.

Matt, keep us posted dude...I have been seriously considering one of these lately. They have a Silver one with black leather that looks excellent...great price too at under $29K fully loaded.

It's either a new Legacy GT or a used 2003/2004 Infiniti M45...gotta have my 4 doors again, miss em.

Agreed. Car looks great either way.

Plus, it's more of a sleeper without the spoiler.

thanks guys


what do you think about these wheels (18")?

2 of the RPM's that were on the CL cracked, so centerline is replacing the whole set. i could get the above, or just get replacement RPM's and sell them and get these.



or maybe these
