I Bought This Survivor Subaru From The Original Owner! 1990 Subaru Legacy Tour, Driving Impressions

[@cartwheels4amile]

You’re not wrong about the difference in feeling that you get with a first gen Legacy. They’re very solid and they feel like they’re built better than the generations that came after. I have a 91 sport sedan and a 94 touring wagon

Bought my subaru legacy in 1997 brand new.still driving it.never had any problems.love it!

[@aaronmedina8400]

Gotta love seeing older Subaru’s like this being well maintained. Great find man

[@MyersMotors]

Hey thanks! It's cool to know they're still out there being used for what they were built to do; haul junk and rack up miles.

Sweet ride - just picked up a '93 wagon 5-speed just like yours but less rust. It was being sold for parts as it is not running. Just did a compression test and looks like broken timing belt - parts ordered. I have a dog and this is the ideal car for dog transport - dog care and footprints along with nose prints - bring it!

-привет я живу в россия у меня такой же легаси из япония только на автоматической трансмиссии TZ102Z очень нравиться 150 лошадиных сил 4WD достаточно резвый в движении только трудно с запчастями также редкий у нас! очень хорошая машина

Can you bolt up a wrx 5speed and matching rear diff? sourcing a legacy driveshaft My be challenging

[@johntrotter7889]

different wheel covers on one side vs the other?

[@Christosan88]

You spoke about bogging did you ever figure the source of that issue? I have a 97 legacy outback limited 5speed and I have the bogging below 3k rpms. Is this a factory feature or something in the trans is causing this cause she free revs just fine

A man close to me has one automatic only thing he says one side of the head might have a blown head gasket runs still wanted a 1000.But head gasket scares me to buy still thinking about it love these cars though just scared to find someone that wants to do the work and do it right

[@Christosan88]

@@hankscorpio7467 We/I have had a 1992 Subaru Legacy Model L white, but Sedan and shape was a bit curved better... And they had a few minor changes for the Engines and so on... Same quality Engine 2.2 l Except our was much cleaner in Cushion (as I was an Upholstery Guy) I had a few things Soup up... And believe it or not; the Original Timing-Belt was on it until 2019 = where we/I had the Belt changed... Subaru Tech Lady was shocked 😲 😲 because then the Belt was older than her / she was born 1993!!! Sadly the Car was stolen this May 2023 = and those Thieves even came with the Tow Truck like those tow 🚚 🚚 that AMA tow your car on highway ... And the Police did not even have a Glue how to trace them ... Perhaps they don't care...? Only CV Axels and 🔋 🔋 Changed once/ Twice 🔋 🔋 because it is really cold here... Winter is sometimes minus 40°F/C cold!! And the Car withstood with such harshly Temperaments... The Extra Rims and Bridgestone Tires we ordered still look like new in 2 of them... as I rotated them around only 2 front... Changed oils 4 times annually and Flush Coolant every winter comes since 2002; and all of those Maintenances made the Subaru 1992 stood with time in extreme Cold and cost us less than 3k CAD 🍁 🍁 Dollars for all the Repair at the Shop; others like Sparkplugs and Cords I have changed them myself, use OEM Genuine Subaru Parts... It was worth and even we had a Camry V6 LE 1993 and Honda Civic DX 1993; I would prefer the Subaru because I would not be spined or lost controls on "Black-iced" Paths.. Happy Holidays to all and the Subaru Enthusiasts 🥂 🥂 🍷 🍷 🎅 🎅 🎄 🎄 📦 📦 🗃 🗃 🌿 🌿 Cheers,

Did you get any original keys

[@MyersMotors]

I did, as well as like a dozen spares the owner had cut for whatever reason

[@joshhuber130]

@@MyersMotors did you get the light key or no

[@liammaupin9492]

Find a wrecked wax and swap it!

[@MyersMotors]

I would be all over that if I had fabrication skills to pull that off lol

[@nickmuchiri576]

What is a wax

[@Unpluggedoutofmatrix]

I can get one for 1000 running
