bgambino Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 My cousin called me...he works at a dealership (not Subaru) They gave a kid $800 trade in for his 05 legacy GT Young kid so he must have blown something....a rod...? the turbo? I don't know So...I just got some pics...looks pretty clean--waiting to hear the mileage...automatic I can have it for $800 supposedly has a new exhaust system The caveat? Its 2 hours away Would have to get my AAA towing club to bring it to me I really wish it was a plain 2.5 engine though.....getting one if needed would be a lot easier Any thoughts guys? It really looks sweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 What's to think? Grab it and flip it if nothing else That's a good paycheck for a day or two's worth of work! Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Ask for a CarFax or Autocheck report. Or get a prospective purchase inquiry from your local DMV. Find out if it has any title issues (salvage/rebuild). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subasaurus Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 if the engine threw a rod or the engine is toast, sell the parts or slap another engine in it and keep it or resell it. good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventureSubaru Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 yeah, that's a steal of a price. get it and figure out what you'll do with it later. Fix, flip, fix and flip, part it out, no downside. Looks like the body is solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xdeadeye1 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 You could also haul it via uhaul dolly. If you use ANY type of dolly, Make sure you Disconnect the drive shaft from the rear end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subasaurus Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) You could also haul it via uhaul dolly.If you use ANY type of dolly, Make sure you Disconnect the drive shaft from the rear end.+1 on this.Hauling it on a dolly and not disconnecting the drive shaft (AWD) will do damage, either that or a full blown trailer with all 4 tires on the trailer.
