My old 1995 Acura Integra LS/SE, before I knew a damned thing about cars:















Took me a good couple weeks to stop parallel parking 2 1/2 feet away from the curb due to rims once I bought the Legacy, lol.

[xXGTBspecXx]

2007 WRX TR STi clone

[blackstar]

this was my baby for a long time...... its a 90 legacy l wagon - production 6/89 - the begining of usdm legacy's....... when i sold it 258,000 miles, i'd rebuilt the engine, cleaning the cylinder head casting flaws, custom intake, koni 6 way adjustable struts, whiteline springs, rear whiteline sway bar, it had wrx 16" wheels on it - black steels were after my buddy tacoed two of the wrx wheels, custom stereo ......... i miss her, sometimes i wish i had her back just to harp on her, she was lots - o - fun

[cman7]

Where to begin...

My first car was a black 1995 Ford Explorer XLT 4x4 Auto. My parents gave it to me with 137k miles on it. I drove it until 176k and probably invested $3,000 just to keep it running.

My second car was a Gray 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4x4 Auto. I took out a massive loan for it and ended up rolling it 4 months later in the snow.


My third car was a Black 2001 Honda Civic EX coupe 5MT. I loved the thing. Got rear ended the day after I bought it. Then again 2 months after getting fixed. And last week it was totaled. I hit a deer at night in a long patch of fog.



My fourth car is my 1997 Subaru Legacy 2.5GT 4EAT . It was meant to be my $1000 winter car but now I need it as a summer car as well.

I originally was supposed to take over my mother's old 1991 Mazda Protege DX. Although it ended up sitting unused for too long and rotted it. I took it all apart and learned a lot in the process. I ended up selling the car for scrap, only made enough to buy a pizza.


A few months before getting my license I convinced my parents to buy me a 1996 Ford Escort, which was based off the Protege. I did a bunch of work to it almost including a custom bodykit. Traveling to college at the start of my second year the engine blew halfway there stranding me. I was forced to sell the car to a mechanic. I really liked this car, was practical and fun and looked cool.



A few months before the 1996 blew up I bought a 2000 Ford ZX2 S/R which is my project car.

My mother replaced her 1998 Legacy Outback with a 2008 Impreza and I ended up with the Outback, which is an awesome daily driver.

[schado]

Well, my leggy is my second, so here's my first:

1991 Integra LS




Did a fair share of wrenching on her, from suspension to the auto to 5 spd conversion. The only thing i didn't have the tools/know how to deal with was putting this thing in:



I was going for a daily driven/track/auto-x direction...



...but then i got married, and now with a kid on the way, it sits in the garage until the day comes when I start parting it out so i can buy goodies for the leggy. It was an awesome, fun, nimble little car, but I never realized the limitations of the platform until i drove my leggy for the first time. Eye opening...

[Nick_701]

[mike-tracy]

Before my current stable which includes a 1996 Legacy and a Forester (that's gonna be for sale once I replace the clutch),

I had my 1st subaru, a 1998 Impreza:






I think someday when I'm done with all my projects and have some time/money, I'll get a beat 93-95 impreza coupe or wagon and do some sort of swap. Fun little cars, but unlike the Impreza, I never get pulled over in either of my driveable Subarus.

[B's Legacy Wagon]

Well only owned 5 cars so far but in order.
1) 1986 toyota extra cab pick-up with 7" lift running 36" dick cepecks on 15" wide mickey thompson rims. with 4 runner shell( member San Diego toys truck club almost 10 years)

3) 1996 Honda prelude V-Tech a few engine mods and full body kit and wing. it felt fast and drove great, but was to small once married and wife needed car to take clients out to lunch and meetings. Didnt look good she said pulling up in the fast and furrious car ha ha.
4) 2003 Cadillac Seville Sts pearl white loved this car. Fast V-8 northstar engine had great body lines(sporty look) and the luxery 4 doors she wanted. Lost this car when wife lost job 2 years ago with the recesstion.
5) newest car 2000 Subaru Legacy wagon just bought this so no mods as of yet but ill try and get some pics up. ( good to have wife back to work so this is sort of her car ) i use mass transit to and from work.

And I think you see where this is going!

I really enjoyed seeing all your nice cars before the Leggys - I'll have some pics of my BD5 later, I just got it this weekend and we got snow here, so no exiting pics yet of the Leggy. And guess what color it is! Silver.. Again!

[TGX4776]

[BigWillieStyles]

Well my BH GT-B I currently drive is the second twin turbo after my last ride which was an FD Rx7, GT-Concept.

[riceboyler]

No pics, and no cars as sweet as the TT Supra or the TT FD RX-7, but it's a long list:

1984 Ford Escort
1984 Honda Civic
1991 Honda Civic
1997 Dodge Neon
1989 Volvo 745ti (740 Turbo Wagon, with a stick!)
1985 Volvo 745ti
1984 Dodge Omni GLH Turbo
1987 Shelby CSX (Turbo Dodge Shadow built by Shelby)
Another 1987 Shelby CSX
1988 Dodge Lancer Shelby
1990 Volvo 765ti

1988 Saab 900 SPG (Turbo - Special Performance Group)
2002 Volvo XC70 (wife's car, Turbo 2.4 5-cylinder)
2000 Legacy GT

So, I came to the realization that this car has the largest (by displacement) engine that I've ever used as my car. I had a 1993 Pontiac Bonneville with the 3.8, but that was only out of necessity, and I don't claim it as mine.

[TGX4776]

I have aways wanted a 88 or 89 SPG. Still on my dream car list

[MRLancaster]

The first one,


Then the Toyota aristo swap...



Sold that back to the guy, had to many problems...then got the legacy. and have been happy ever since. I do miss owning a soarer though. Once i finish the sti or wrx swap to the wagon im going to get another soarer as a fun car and use the wagon as a daily
