Nice pics Matt.... How much did you lower the ride height, and did you alter the stock GT setup? Just curious.
Mine is a bit higher, but I like the stiff ride of the spec B suspension...
Change the thread title to the Legacy owners thread......
And for those that are thinking of one, just take a test drive.....

Thanks guys. Yes I did have Prodrives for my summer wheels but I sold them. They looked great on the car but after running them for 3 seasons I decided it was time for a change. I'll probably pick up something new for next summer, something lighter this time.

I'm running JDM STi pink springs. I think the provide the perfect drop, and they still ride pretty well. I'll be adding Koni's to them this spring.
I haven't had any trouble being lowered, and my car gets used like a Suby should.

If I could get any car right now it'd be an LGT Wagon, those cars are absolutely amazing! Not that I don't like the sedan, I tend to like it more, but the wagon would be a bit more useful for me.
Is a 2005-2006 Audi S4 worth the $5-7k more than a 2005-2006 Legacy GT?
I've seen LGT's for ~$15k with low mileage and I've seen B6 S4's for $19-23k with similar mileage.

Rock: Take some pics and put them on here.....
Crazy : It seems like the 2.5SE and the Lancer GTS are somewhat comparable, but the Legacy is a bigger car, so an Imprezza (the 2009 4 door sedan is coming soon to the US) is more like in size and mission.
On my car, it is the specB option. The suspension is a reverse strut setup with Bilstein shocks. I also get a Torsen LSD in the rear, the wheels, and DVD Navigation. There's a little bit of a flame war between specB owners and those that don't on legacyGT.com, but I could give a shit.

more pics
More pics..... The old Saber and the new Leg....
And after a cleaning.
More will follow....
Mrsteve: IMO, I think it is. The S4, if well taken care of and not rode like a bitch in heat, should be a really good car.

There just is no brotherhood involved when it comes to teh Audi's. The again I live in the Pac NW and Subaru's are > * around here.
I like how in the BMW thread they won't post pics if their cars are dirty.
down and dirty is how we roll.

You know, I haven't gone that far with mine, as the weather here is warm year round (plus my Bridgestone RE050A's would slide like a pole dancer in heat).
I'll try and get some dirty shots, but until then clean ones....

Also Cobbtuning.com has lots of goodies. If you want to mod, get the 2.5 GT/specB. If smooth power and some better luxuries are your thing then get a 3.0R. If you get a super deal, then anything else in the Legacy line.
