the wife and i recently purchased a '96 Legacy L AWD wagon. Nice car. been watching subarus for a few years, and finally found one we liked at a semi-decent price.

Already ditched the OEM tape deck and door front speakers for Alpine. :lol: put the headunit under the storage pocket. we both like the car.. if for different reasons. hoping to fit some 17's on it. i like 5zigen. and Enkie.. but my wallet ain't that deep yet.

The Legacy was added to a "fleet" of 3 other vehicles. My two are a 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee lifted, locked and uh... loaded (Laredo SE) and a 1990 Geo Tracker with a 2.5" suspension and 2.25" body lifts.. running only 30" a/t tires. The wife claims her 2004 Tahoe and the Legacy. That makes the Tahoe the only vehicle driving only 2 wheels.

This is our first Subaru... but if this little car keeps on impressing me, it wont be the last. I'd like a bit more power, but it isnt badat all.

looking forward to picking some brains on Legacy tech stuff. :twisted:

CDA-9847 (IIRC) and Typs S 6.5" coax. Sounds pretty good. The Type S speakers are not as sensitive as the OEM speakers (SPL). I had to set the fader a tad to the front to even it out some, but it sounds pretty good. I still have not added the sub and amp, so we'll see how it goes after that.

No pics of the car just yet. I've either been under my Jeep or at work lately. Trying to get it ready for a trip to Moab, UT in September.

Hey, Welcome!

While power isn't great, we all learn to love the car for other reasons.

Then we get WRX swaps :lol:
