sti_owner Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Thats a pretty slick resource. It looks like a work in progress. Would love to know pricing and options. hi to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBY Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 The current model GT (5 speed) lists at $25,645 msrp. Factor in the engine upgrade and a few other goodies and my guess is around $29,000. Take the Forester for example, you pay $1,825 extra for the Turbo motor. Of course the Legacy is a total re-work but I still think Subaru will want to keep it within range of current Legacy owners who want to upgrade.

Dr. Zevil Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 I wish the Need-desire.com website would show pictures of the USDM legacy consistently instead of showing Euro and JDM versions. It's all very confusing when I am trying to see exactly what the US market will recieve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacy2ner Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 On Need-desire.com look at the pics of the Detriot Auto Show thats the USDM one. Or research pics from the LA Auto Show it was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't add $1825 to the GT price. The current GT is ridiculously overpriced. Add a MAXIMUM of 3%. Nowhere in the world has the new GT been priced higher than 3% over the old GT. I don't know why everyone feels okay paying close to $30,000 for this car. Let's not give SOA ideas. I'm sure they are conscientiously trying to keep the price point close. I'm sure a loaded GT will end up retailing for something close to your $29,000 figure, but the base GT will start closer to $26,000. SOA would be insane to do anything else, and Subaru worldwide has kept a firm line on pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtguy Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Subaru is on the record as having said that the price hike will be no more than 3% over old models. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subaru is on the record as saying prices won't increase more than 3% over current Legacy models. I presume that they know what they're talking about. Worldwide, to date, there hasn't been more than a 3% hike in the Legacy price, GT or otherwise. Do you know differently? Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 No, it just explains and coorelates models in the most visual way possible. 3-5% max, depending how they feel that day. :lol: In that range, any way you cut it, it should be good. Only reason I mention up to 5% is because to stay 'above' the FXT Premium pack, it might take that big of a jump for the GT Ltd Sedan, or perhaps just the Wagon would sit that high. Any way we cut it, should make the WRX look like chicken scraps. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titsataki Posted February 6, 2004 Share Posted February 6, 2004 So the GT Limited is still slated to be only an auto? Cheers Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted February 6, 2004 Share Posted February 6, 2004 Not that I know of. That was also only for 1998. 1999 and newer you could get it with either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtmy04 Posted February 6, 2004 Share Posted February 6, 2004 Just as a matter of interest, the Liberty GT Premium (ie luxury) price in Australia is LESS than the Liberty B4 it replaced. It's $55,000 AUD (on today's rates that's $41800 USD - what have you guys got to complain about?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
