Hey everybody!

I just purchased my first Legacy and I will be picking up on Thursday! It's a 99 Legacy L Anniversary Edition wagon. 2.2L 5MT w/ 158k on the clock for $3,000 USD.

I'm not new to Subaru's, I daily driven a 96 Impreza Brighton coupe for 3 years. I needed a bigger winter beater/daily driver and this car is PERFECT for that.

I LOVE this car so far, it needs some work (clutch, cam seals, t-belt, water pump, etc). I am amazed by the EJ22, I was expecting it to be a slug like my old EJ18

I found this car on autotrader and knew I had to take it for a test drive. The car isn't perfect, but so far it's the best riding car i've ever owned in my life.
