8788dyno Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I am new to USMB but not new to Subaru's. My first car was a 79 FE Coupe. I inherited it from my Dad when I turned 16 with 150K on it and I put another 100K on it easily. I currently own a 2002 Legacy GT, and just traded in my Jeep for a 2008 Outback for the wife. My wife has been driving the 02 for the last 6 years so I have really not done much to it but keep up the maint. Now that it is my daily driver I may have work on it a bit. I only just found the site so haven't had a chance to dig through it too much but if anyone has any feedback on the 2002's I would love to hear it. (opinions, mod sudgestions, any thing) Thanks everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strakes Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Welcome aboard! I've got a 2002 GT wagon and love it. If maintenance isn't clearly documented, open up the maintenance schedule listed in your owners manual and match up what's been done and what may have been left out. The car's easy to work on and fun to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msmithmmx Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Welcome, I am a few miles down Rt1 in West Grove... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8788dyno Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 Thanks everyone. The FE Coupe was rolled by my cousins back in 1991 or 1992. From what I remember my Dad told me it was undrivable but the engine still started. That was a good old car. On the way in to work this morning my GT started making some very funky noises so it is currently in the shop....hope it isn't serious but with my luck it is going to be expensive.
