How old is everyone on this board?

I'm just wondering. Seems as though the average age of people who own legacies is older than the impreza crowd, although I could be wrong.

I'm 26. Been driving THREE different legacies (90Lsi, 97GT, and 91turbo) since I was 17.

I'm nearly 20. Sounds young but Ive been into scoobys since I was 12. I used to watch the Rally on TV and McRae was favorite driver for a long time. Peter Solberg takes top spot now. He just wants to have fun! Right on.

I'm 22, but have been driving a Legacy of some type since 17 or so. I had a year-long stint with an Impreza, and I also loved my W123 Mercedes diesel, but the Legacies have always been there.

Got my legacy before I was 16 and have loved it since.

I'll be 25 in just over a week, and will never own a car made by anyone other than Subaru. This is my first Subaru, and car for that matter, and I've already developed a spot in my heart for Legacies. I'll definitely give the Legacy line serious consideration when it comes time to buy new (that's not for a long time tho, if I can do something about the rust on this one).

I'm 24 and will be turning 25 in May. I've had the same Legacy since March of '96.

I'm perhaps the youngest memeber here. I will be 19 in August. I love Subes. My father has been a mechanic for Subaru for a good 20 years now. He says by far Subaru's most reliable car has been the first generation Legacy. Thats why we have 5 of em :D

Mark,

I'm 20. Got the Legacy when I was 17 (paid for it myself). Knew I wanted this exact car even 2 years before that. (or an old audi GT coupe)
During that time, I got to drive around the bulletproof 1985 Toyota Camry. :D Nothing could stop that car! It's still runnining with 200+ K miles on it.

I had my eye on a Audi coupe also. A red one. Real nice.

I'm 21. Bought my Subaru Brat off my dad when I was 17. Learned about rally stuff reading up on Subarus. Found out about the stinkin Legacy Turbo about 8 months ago, found one... guy wouldn't sell it to me (said he was going to trade into dealer instead... fag - always take cash), anyways... found another one and got it. Just sold my '84 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale, sweet pimpin car. Lifted suspension, big ol' tires, and it would rolllll on the highway with that V-8... and the local gas stations would send me thank-you cards. But now the Legacy is my "dream" car and I'm gonna keep it and make it fast... er.

I will be 20 in may. I bought my car last October, instead of getting a 2000 impreza rs. I made a wise decision, NO payments!
I love the legacy too, and once i can finish college, I am going to do more stuff to it. 8)

I'm probably second to Mark, my 19th birthday is in 4 days... This is my first Subaru (I like to think of it as my first car, but I can't :( ), and it definitely won't be my last Subaru :D !

turning 19 in a few months....

purchased the legacy myself right after my 17th birthday.

at the time i was only planning on keeping the legacy for a few years and then upgrading to a first gen impreza rs, but i fell in love with her :)

I just turned 28 this month. I have driven a honda civic since 95 when I bought it new. Before that my first car was my moms 87 GL sedan automatic 2wd. I got it with around 120K miles on it and drove it until it got totaled in a bad car accident. (I made it out ok). I then bought my civic and found an 87 gl wagon to use as a winter car. I just recently bought a 98 Infiniti I30t off my sister and that is a true pimp ride :wink:. I was looking for a GL turbo of some sort to rebuilt and fix up as a project car. I had no idea they even made legacies with turbos, I just stumbled upon my current 94 by accident. I'm still working on getting the motor back together and will have many pics when I'm done. :)

I'm 26 and got my Subaru habit a few years ago with a 87 GL-10 turbo sedan that cost me $180 (timeing belt, lots of body damage). I've had my Legacy six months now, running for two :cry: got pissed off, bought a WRX three months ago :oops: , decided I liked the Legacy better, now have no money to fix it, and am selling a WRX, if anyone is looking for one let me know.

I'm 18 (19 in July) I've driven a 95 impreza L (mum's), 95 Legacy wagon (dad's)... any my own first car is the 1991 Legacy turbo which I got around a year ago. I've been into rallying since I was a little kid and my first love was the escort cossie (born and raised in the UK) after I found out that the majority of small cars in North America were jokes, I was glad to find a turbo'd 4wd that I could afford short of selling my kidney to import a WRX (or a cossie :oops: ) I've loved subaru's ever since the introduction of the impreza onto the rallying scene, and seeing colin blasting the balls off of the legacy in person (I don't remember it but I was there)

Im 23 but have about 210,000 miles of driving under my belt (may not sound like much, do the math). I also currently have my 11th-12th vehicle (cant even remember now).

I'm 20. My NA was my second car to an 87 Nova. The NA wasn't enough for me, so last year I bought the turbo. It's more of a project car, and I don't know if I'm going to have the time or funds for it. College, work, etc... I'm lookin at another turbo in a lot better shape at the moment. If I get it, I'll have a turbo for sale.

I'm 23 I'll be 24 in June. I graduate then too, so I'm hoping a good job will come around and give me a little more money so I can actually do some mods to my car. It's a great sub, but after driving it for about a year I see the need for more power :)

It's in there, just got to let it out.

Wow cipher, I thought you were older also. I've got a lot of driving under my belt too. I don't think I've got as much as you, though. :)
