Jack in Norfolk Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I'm just wondering what the used Subie market is like at present in Boone, NC. My brother needs a replacement for his accord. Preferably 4wd. I am pushing him towards a subaru. Just wondering if any of you Western NC folks know any particularly nice old gen Subes available. Thanks. -Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WagonsOnly Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 There was a marketplace posting about 3 weeks ago--Esteban found a good classifieds source. It's a pay-to-view-phone site, but it had a pretty good selection. Out of WNC if I recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmays Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 The best source I know of covers all of western NC, and it's the Iwanna. They sell print editions for $1, or you can go on the website http://www.iwanna.com and click the Asheville edition. They have the phone numbers marked out on the ads online unless you pay $1 online, but it's the same as the print edition. Best classified source available for any car you want to buy (it's how I got my $250 GL-10 wagon). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Boone is the place that probably has some oldtimers lingering around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack in Norfolk Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 I always see a lot more subaurus in general there than I do anywhere around here. There are a bunch of EA cars on the road. Many of them are in good shape despite the tough winters they get there. So I thought he should be able to find something that will fit the bill. His driveway is quickly becoming a formidable mud run. With this mild winter they have had a lot of mud. Its a testement to Hondas that he can get up it at all. A 4wd sube would do it effortlessly. And if he got a wagon he could load it up with firewood too rather than stuffing the trunk and backseat of his honda. He said he didn't want a truck because of gas mileage so the subie is a natural fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny you mention that. I was walking out of Mast when I saw (I actually recognized the sound of it first) a pristine ea82 4wd wagon. It was perfect. Shiny, no dents, white wagon wheels with all of the centercaps. THis is not all that unusural a sight in Boone but I haven't seen one like that in ages around here.
