Barging in on you guys from LA

[stanz]

I seem to have ignored this section completely. Sorry guys :-?
Well Im a newbie with a scoobie. 95 L wagon to be exact. I used to be a rotar head (couple 7s before and a rotary truck) but i needed something more reliable/practical/bigger. I've always liked wagons, Legacy wagons especially (almost went honda accord). Its high mileage but the EJ22 goes forever, right? RIGHT!

HI

[d1giPhux]

Welcome! Glad you didnt go to the accord side! While i love most honda cars, i hate the accord line. If it wasnt for mine almost being stolen every week, being an overweight pig, and slower than death.. i might not hate that line of cars so much!

but regardless.. welcome! :grin:

You can pass an EJ22 down to your grandchildren.

Nice top gear reference :lol:

...being an overweight pig...

2004 Accord 2.4L 4dr curbweight (4EAT) - 3059
2005 Legacy GT 4dr curbweight (4EAT) - 3300
2004 Legacy GT 4dr curbweight (4EAT) - 3550
1999 Legacy GT 4dr curbweight (4EAT) - 3200

:-?

And it's interior is much more plush than a Legacy...

It would be nice to see one last that long. I doubt they would want it :lol:

thats a big diff. i was referring to the accord wagon tho. i wonder what those comparisons are...lets say the 94-97/8 vs. BG wagon

[Wiscon_Mark]

Sedan - 2855
Wagon - 3053

That's from the 97MY

A 97 GT wagon would be 3250 or so.
A sedan would be just under 3200.

So the accord wagon + an AWD system would be about the same as the 97 GT wagon.

Theres a difference between fat and muscle.. come on now! :lol:

I just hate accords.. not so sure about the newer ones.. but i had a 97.. and yea, they are CRAP. If you like having your car broken into every other week, or dealing with the fat pig.. by all means.. buy one! :grin: .. i have owned plenty of cars, and the accord was by far the most spineless, soul-less car i have ever owned. Altho it was good for some ebrake slides =]

[Wiscon_Mark]

If you hadn't mentioned the name of the car you were talking about, I would've guessed a buick :lol:

I always thought Accords were more fun than Camrys. Camrys were the lowest of the low for fun factor and personality.

True. The legacy is carrying around an AWD system ;)

Welcome to the site! Lots of stuff to learn

FWIW, my friend had a very rare honda accord (96 wagon with a manual), and it was a very fun car with surprising pick up. He crashed it into a highway barrier so he could avoid hitting a stopped car and totaled it (snow storm, couldn't get around the car).

Anyway, your very first modification should be a rear sway bar from an outback or a 93-94 legacy SS. Trust me. Best $30-50 investment.

Thanks for the tip. I should be coming up on one of those this weekend ;)
