Hey all,

 

I think 1 car between my wife & me is a bit hard... Rolled by the local Subaru dealer. They just took in a...

 

97 Legacy L Wagon

172,000 miles.

They wanted $2900 out the door (tax, title, tags included).

The lowest I could talk them down to was $2500.

 

The only issues are the shifter is sloppy (it needs a new shifter knuckle--they offered to do it for $400 :roll eyes:), and there is a little bit of oil leakage out of the head gasket according to the mechanic - so it could stand to be replaced. It drives great, and started right up. This is the same dealership that sold me my 2008 Legacy.

 

Is this a good deal? Is the mileage something I need to worry about? I am in grad school for the next 2 years and need something half-way dependable... What kind of mileage can I get out of this car would you think? Sorry, I am still new to Subarus; I'm a recovering Honda owner.

 

Thanks everyone!

 

Daniel

 

PS - wife said I couldn't have two 3.0r s... :p
