Dang, I was just about to post up the very same video link. Looked kinda fun even though the car was likely a junker. If not, it probably ended up one after that!

I wish it didn't get off after the initial touchdown, but I doubt that wrecked it. I've never jumped the Legacy, but I've beat on it without damage. I did jump my 84 GL and that car didn't care at all. I hit a dip and ramp at about 55 and launched it. The car came down, hit the stops and leaped up again, hit the stops and got light, but I don't think it caught air the third time. I think the initial jump was about three feet high.

I'm positive the car was fine after that. Fix the alignment and their parents will probably never know (speaking from experience

) I'd never do that to my Touring wagon though

i have watched that video over and over and over again! its just as funny still, but i dont think it would be near as funny with out the dixie horn, that pretty much cut the cake.

Can't imagine the Nissan could handle that. My sister had a 1991 or '93 and every pot hole meant front end problems. And every problem was an expensive PITA. My mother's Altima was the same way. I don't think the suspension travel is long enough either.

Holy! That was some serious air. I've never done anything that high... that I know of.
There is a perfect jumping bridge in my town. The road slopes up to it very nicely. It throws you long instead of high... and pretty much perfectly level. I cleared about 80' one time in my Brat, front wheels cleared the bridge!

I'd almost agree but the boxer sound is a dead give away that it's a Subaru.

Freeze-framing (yeah, I have too much time) pins it as a 95 - 99 Legacy. Headlights are completely different, and the tiny bit of grill I could see looks like the BD Legacy. But I'm dumb, so meh.

i was just going to write that but i figured someone would.
looked like a legacy gt sedan for that model year w/out freeze framing it.
