Nice cars man!

Dope Caddy Lord Marvel....my first car was a 1991 Cavalier. Bought it months before I had my license and totaled it ten days after I got my license thinking I was hot $hit speeding in the rain.
Since then i've changed cars more often than i'd like to admit.
I've got an 05 Subaru Legacy GT Stage 2 Turbo and an 05 Jeep Wrangler, lifted with 32"s at the moment.
Within the past 5 years i've owned a 97 Firebird Formula, 1993 Mustang GT, 1995 Ford Explorer, 1998 BMW 323IS, 1987 Monte Carlo SS, amongst others with my favorite being the 2007 Jeep supercharged SRT8 I got rid of about 6 months ago.

I'm about to go trade in my STi for a 2011 Legacy GT. How Do you like the legacy? I know the 11 is way bigger. And this legacy has a whole new turbo setup. Pretty much I could only go stage 2. Unless I went the custom route and made everything from scratch.

'76 Continential? The only things that car was missing was a mast and rudder lol. I do love my big cars though.

Idk what it is exactly about these cars but, I loved them. Such a cool looking car.

omega145 · 10-17-2011, 12:11 PM

Love my Legacy, went from the Jeep SRT8 with over 500HP to this but its a lot more tamer and possibly more fun to drive with its AWD (true AWD as opposed to sometime AWD with the Jeep) and my 87 SS was clean with a complete repaint, a 350ZZ4 and basically everything replaced.

Yeah man it got 12 mile per gallon when gas was .98 cents. I beleave it was 22 feet long and took up the entire lane on any road I was on. IDK how I didn't clip mail boxes as I drove. I'm 6'4 and I could lay down accross the back seat and and not hit eather door. It had lighters and ash trays at every door. But if you tried to roll down your window and use the lighter I would blow a feuse. lol

Good to know. Do you happen to know how much your stage 2 setup makes? Did you get the Spec B version?

trebleshot · 10-17-2011, 12:33 PM

My first car was a Navy blue '85 Ford Escort.

I won't show a pic of it for your sakes and mine. :/

Man around 300 on a legacy turbo with just stage 2 is impressive. Cobb? Or ECUflash?

correction, LOOKED great... that car is long gone

blew out the head gasket, started pumping exhaust through my coolant.. not a good day.

I now drive a 2000 Nissan Altima, with a carbon fiber hood, decepticon emblems replacing the front and back nissan logos, and a Blue Kitt light from Knight Rider in the front.

That blue is gorgeous! As for the elblems, the chrome really pops on that blue but, a flat black would look sick too.

I was a spoiled brat...I had a 1967 Mustang when I turned 14. Killer ride and have always had a hot rod or classic around the house. I am working on a 64 Fairlane for my son now. He is 8.
