I posted a quick hello in the Introductions forum, but figured the Legacy needed to be in Members Rides too. :cool: My wife and I just acquired it from my lucky parents... lucky, because my mom just bought a new '08 3.0R... supposedly the only Bronze Metallic in the entire state of Colorado.

I finally got around to installing my old premier deck. I bought this deck brand new in 1999. I had it in my Corvette, then it was stolen out of the Vette. Incredibly, they caught the guys and I got my deck back. Loaned it to my brother for a few years, had it in my Volvo for a while... Now it's happily where it belongs, in my Subaru! :lol:

I know I could upgrade to a better/newer deck, but this one has too much sentimental value. :lol:

I've got a K&N panel filter I can sell you cheap. With cleaning kit, $20. I used it for a while, but I felt like the oil might have been messing with my air sensor. I switched to an AEM dry re-usable synthetic filter.

Check this out, if you're not busy sunday:

Usually 100 or more cars show up to these. I think we've had close to 200 once. Great group of people and lots of nice cars. Just make sure you walk around and mingle, I've seen some never leave their car and they say "oh it was boring"... well duh...

I'd love too... sadly, they took it home Saturday... which is 6 hours from me. I should have them take a picture and send it to me. :smile:

I do have a picture of the outside though. It's a pretty sweet car. It only had 65 miles on the odo when the picked it up.

Plays_with_Toys, I'll have to check out the AWD Pirates meet. I'm crazy busy on weekends, but if we can make it, my wife and I will try. Interesting thoughts on the K&N too. I'll have to look into the AEM filter after I get a replacement stereo for the factory unit.

I swear I saw the 3.0R if it really is the only Metallic Doo-doo brown color in the enitre state.


But I could be mistaken. Both Legacies (the 3.0R and this one) look/sound like awesome purchases. I wish I had a BD

That's what they were told by the dealer. They said most of the Subaru dealers in the state wanted to buy it from them. :smt102

You would have seen this car go through Denver on Saturday the 10th.

It's the only picture I have, and it's a bad phone pic at that.

Would that car have been around the Union & 6th area? Because if so, I saw it. If not, then theres either another one or some other doo-doo brown Legacy driving around.

Nope. It would have cruised I-25 to C-470 to Hwy 285... It really wouldn't have been in Denver too long. There might be other bronze metallic Legacy's in CO, but supposedly not 3.0R's.... But who knows, it was probably just a sales tactic to get my parents to buy it. :lol:

All I know, is that my wife and I got a nice used Legacy out of the deal. :lol:

The BD has a damn clean engine bay... I see no major rust going on. Good deal!

It's been a CO car most of it's life and well taken care of. 104,000 on the clock too! :smile: My wife and I are hoping to keep it for a long time.

Thanks for the compliments :cool:

Bump for new pic (OP) of the new stereo. :cool:

It's nice to be able to listen to my iPOD in the car now without the ridiculous Tape adapter. :lol:
