1998 Subaru Legacy Base review

My Dodge truck got stolen in January of 2022 .

My Dodge truck got stolen in January of 2022 . I needed a car I only had liability on truck so I got no $$. I bought this 1998 Subaru Outback for 2000$ it had 170,000 miles on it the owner did all the Maintance he was going to give to his daughter so he wanted it in tip top condition , well his daughter took one look and said yuk I don’t want that . So he sold it to me . New tires new brakes all u joints new transmission service . All because it was for his daughter . Lucky me . I have drove this car all over to Montana to LA lots of place . Great in the snow . I will say this is the best car I have ever owned for 2000$ dollars . I have put 30,000 miles on it , just over 200,000 miles on it . Also the AC works great . I love this car . I get more compliments on this Sub then I ever did on my Dodge Ram . Bottom line I do recommend .

1998 Subaru Legacy Base review

My absolute favorite car i have owned

This car has been my go to car for anything even it being a 98 i still love driving it. i just wish there were more modifications a newbie to the car building game could get. i haven't been able to find much or anything for other car mods you can do like body kits and engine mods

There are 8 matching cars close to your year range.
