There's a Spec B in Biz, too. Looking at your avatar, is your car black or RBP? MT or Auto? How many miles?

Mine is RBP, MT with 50K miles. Bought it new in June of 2005. Best car I've ever owned, & I've owned lots of cars (I'm an old guy).

OBP 5MT 59000 by far the best car i've owned also despite my vf40 fail but i got some money saved up to spend on her so should be pushing 350 to 400 awhp.

You're scaring me. vf40 fail? At what mileage did that happen & how long have you had the car? I've been worried about that after reading all the horror stories on this forum. No problems yet, but my car has been very well maintained...OC every 3K since new, although with dino. Local dealer says it's by far the cleanest '05 in town.

Your mod intentions sound like fun. My car is stock except for Rota G-Forces. As I've said, I'm an old guy that has always enjoyed fast cars & at my age stock is plenty fast for me now.

I see LGTs in Bismarck pretty regularly...and I have actually spotted a turbo wagon a few times as well.

**waynekranzler** · #8: 03-17-2011, 07:29 PM

Never seen the LGT wagon. What's your ride?

**AdAstra** · #9: 03-17-2011, 08:00 PM

It's an '06 atlantic blue pearl sedan; 35% tint rear, 50% front; borla CBE. Thinking about enkei 18x7.5 EKM3s for summer.

**waynekranzler** · #**10:** 03-17-2011, 08:14 PM

Don't remember seeing that one around. When/where did you get it?

**AdAstra** · #**11:** 03-17-2011, 08:24 PM

I picked it up last fall at Cedric Theel...wasn't impressed with anything I saw at Ressler. In fact, they didn't have a GT anyhow (new or used). They did try to sell me an '05 impreza for very nearly the same price I ended up paying for an '06 limited GT. The cars were in very similar condition with nearly identical mileage. Robbery...

**05LGTunderpressure** · #**12:** 03-17-2011, 08:41 PM

only had it for before about 10,000 miles not sure how it was maintained before. but i follow the recommended 3750 oil changes.It's stage 2 though cbe,cai,dp,ap about 17psi.

**05LGTunderpressure** · #**13:** 03-17-2011, 08:44 PM

sorry meant to type only had it for 10,000 miles before it crapped out on me.

**waynekranzler** · #**14:** 03-17-2011, 08:48 PM

How many miles? When I bought my LGT back in 2005 it was a new model & Ressler was pushing the s**t out of them...had three sedans & a wagon on the lot. Over the years they've stocked fewer & fewer. Now no new body style ones at all (new ones look like s**t IMO).

I've never understood why our cars didn't sell better then have...Not bad looks, AWD with major power, respectable handling, etc., etc.

Great car with worthless marketing, I guess. I plan to keep mine to at least 100K.

**waynekranzler** · #**15:** 03-17-2011, 08:54 PM

What was the total mileage when the tubo crapped? Evidently, it took the engine with it? Any warning signs, noises, CEL, etc.?
