JJBerk Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'm willing to wait, and willing to go almost anywhere to get the white LGT that I want (to replace my '06LGT), but is there any real difference in the last 3 model years that the LGT was made? All of your input is VERY much appreciated!!! Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgoodhue Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Some 2010's have a shimmy issue. Otherwise their are just very minor cosmetic interior changes. 2011 and 2012 LGT's are very rare. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/5th-gen-production-numbers-194527p5.html?highlight= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJBerk Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 I am discovering that... but I've found a few. I will not lose hope. I just need to wait a couple of months. Thanks for the input and the link to the other thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightspeed98 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 IIRC, there is 200 2012 LGT ever made for the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJBerk Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 @Drift Motion... I'm glad I'm not the only one! My fam thinks I'm just crazy... I really think it's the right one. I just have to convince everyone else. It's a beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJBerk Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 I am thrilled to say that I am in NYC, headed a bit farther north tomorrow to pick up my 2012 LGT. A little sad to see the 2006 LGT go, but progress must be made! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew888 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Congratulations but I have a question... What makes the 2010 + attractive? Just curious because other than the torque I'm still struggling with them. Proud owner of a '12 LGT. It's awesome!!!!

nightspeed98 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 to me its the part i see most often. the interior and space. it feels considerably larger than my 09 LGT, but it still handles like the 09 did but with more comfort and space. and being that its limited run, value holding well so far.

dgoodhue Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Congratulations but I have a question... What makes the 2010 + attractive? Just curious because other than the torque I'm still struggling with them. They respond better to simple mods than the 05-09's and are faster at stage 1 & 2. They weight less than a 2009 LGT. They have much more shoulder room, back seat leg room and trunk space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 ^^This +1. Safer, due to newer chassis engineering... Better interior fit, finish and materials... Decreased wind noise at high speeds... More helmet room also!!!

TheOneDoubleN Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Having owned both 4th and 5th gen LGT's, there's only a few things I like better about 4th gen: -It's a smaller car, and feels smaller when cornering -The steering feels less numb than the 5th gen -It has a stupid little timer that tells you how long you've been driving Beyond that, the 5th gen feels better to me in every other way. Bigger, faster, more comfortable, much nicer, roomier, quieter, reliable (from what I've seen over the years here), and just an all around better car. I also think the 5th gen looks nicer than the 4th gen, but that's down to personal taste. The exterior looks of a car are the last thing I consider when buying a new car, since I spend 99% of my time inside the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTEASER Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I think the 4th gen wagons look good, but I'm not particularly thrilled with the sedan looks. A little too sedate and a little quirky in the rear end if you ask me. The 5th gen pops as agressive all around if you ask me, but in order to really get that you have to lower it and put some wider tires on it. The stock wheel gap is disappointing.

TheOneDoubleN Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I think the 4th gen wagons look good, but I'm not particularly thrilled with the sedan looks. True, I do like the 4th gen wagon a lot more than the sedan, definitely a sharp looking wagon. The 5th gen pops as agressive all around if you ask me, but in order to really get that you have to lower it and put some wider tires on it. The stock wheel gap is disappointing. Can't the same thing be said for a stock 4th gen? Mine had just as much wheel gap as my 5th gen. Sure the overall size of the wheel well is obviously larger to fit a larger wheel, but the vertical gap is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
