Hey all. Considering buying a house and I could use a bigger down payment.
I'm testing the waters to trade my LGT (2007 DSM Lmtd) for a Third generation (1998–2003) Legacy + cash (TBD). KBB values my car in the 15-16k range. Clean title. Title is IN HAND (there are no loans on this car).
Miles are around 88,xxx. Miles go up ~25/day for work driving. Car is in Fuel economy mode and getting ~25mpg.
Current mods are:
Tint (Barely Legal for VA)
Downpipe (I think it's an Invidia)
Accessport Stage 2 tuned
Springs (I'll double check the brand)
Stock Intake
Stock Catback
Carbon Fiber interior/shift boot (where the wood accents usually are).
Everything else is stock. It has heated/power leather seats. Heated mirrors/wipers. SI Drive. The leather is great. Has rear pass-through for ski's, etc. Also has TPMS of course. It's in great condition and never been in any accidents. Leather seats are in good condition as well (no rips, wearing or tears). This is a great all around vehicle. Never ran full cat-back and never had previous mods to it other than mine. A very clean and unmolested LGT. Maintenance has always been performed when needed and I have some records for oil changes, etc.
If you do not have an older LGT I will consider other 'beater' cars but try to keep the value < $5000 and try to keep the 'beat' to a minimum. Must have Clean Title (no accidents), no body damage. Honda Civics and Accords are good options.
No rush on this, as I said it's a feeler. Buying a house around August/September so there is plenty of time.
PM is the best way to reach me for those who are interested.
