xdeadeye1 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I saw a 95 legacy wagon automatic for sale. @ $2500 it said it had low miles ,, like 20k. I called Found out its actually 200k. The body is nice, no rust. No damage. interior looks nice from what I can tell. Power everything. The guy dropped the price over the phone to 1800. Guy said it has 2 new front tires and 2 new axles. He did say it has some torque bind, but that's not what he called it. Just that when you did a hard turn that it made a noise. Worth it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 He did that himself by getting only two new tires instead of four. Sounds high to me, too high, but I am bad at these things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelcom66 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) In Feb. 2011 we paid $2.200 for my son's '95 Legacy S, automatic AWD. At the time it had I think around 149k miles. If everything works (my son's AC did not, got it repaired 2 years ago) and it's in very good shape it's in the ballpark I guess, maybe a little high. A plus for that year is the 2.2 engine.

Fairtax4me Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 $1200 because of the transmission (torque bind) problem and the mileage. Needs two more tires and a $500 clutch pack to fix the bind. I sold my 95 LS auto wagon in near perfect shape, great tires, new brakes, absolutely no rust, no torque bind, 180k miles, for $2100 a few years ago.

nipper Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Yes thats how the AWD works, with a clutch pack in an automatic. In fact automatics usually have a few clutchpacks, and band cluthes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventureSubaru Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Wait for a better deal. it's not outrageous, but with some patience and a little negotiation, you can get great deals via craigslist etc. Especially if you buy one needing repair. I got my current 2000 Outback for $350. in need of a trans and clutch. Found a used trans for $100. on craigslist, bought a new clutch disc and have an awesome runner for about $500 and a days worth of wrenching. Deals come along and are worth waiting for. With 200k and torque bind it sounds more like a $1000 car. Edited April 1, 2015 by AdventureSubaru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
