Can a 2000ish Legacy wagon look good?


Recommended Posts

Ok so I'm currently searching for my next used Subie. I'm pretty settled that I want a Forester in the '03 up body style. But, I keep seeing Outback wagons around 2000-2002 for good prices. Is it just because these seem to be the ugliest years? I know someone here will be all "I love the way my 01 outback looks!" But, sorry, I don't. Can't get into that body. Something about it just too generic and lame. But, I will probably lift and do some silly off-roady stuff to whatever I get. I've never seen one of these years modded like that. Anybody? What about that multi-link rear suspension? Does it mind being lifted inch or two? Any pics of of one with off road tube bumpers? Help me like this bodystyle, or just reassure me to keep looking for the Forester I really want.

 if you find a 'good price' on an 02 with the H6 - you won't care what it looks like.

 

My wife wants a different car and has never cared for how hers looks, but I tell her when she's IN it, she doesn't have to look at it! lol!

Yeah if you poke around some you'll find some pics of lifted/ bigger tires/ push bars on the 2000 era cars. The multi-link rears are really easy to lift with blocks. There are also lift springs for them made by King springs. Kinda pricey, but very good quality.
