Just for grins, does anyone closeish to Vancouver WA have a GL wagon they want to get rid of? I'm looking for one not beat to shit and carburated. Want to use it for a commuter car. Blown head gaskets are okay.
 
Just get a Legacy. It's 5x the car unless you're looking to attract hipsters.
 
Fuck you, selectable 4wd with low range is way cooler than a boring ass legacy :flipoff2:
The low isn't actually low enough to do jack shit off road. It just makes a vehicle that was undrivable off road as driveable as an 80s SUV in 4H.

You're actually better off with an automatic.

Again I am thankful for your input. But I am looking for a GL wagon, nothing more and nothing less. I doubt I'll find anything here but it was worth a post. No skin off my back.

Shut your whore mouth, those early subarus were the last good cars they made.

6k+ rpm launches in 4low, slam to 4 hi, then through the gears always brought the smiles :flipoff2:

Plus when you loose 1st and 3rd gear, you can use low range as a splitter..... :lmao:

So good the later ones outsold them 10:1 or more. :laughing:

They're cool as a novelty but you gain nothing other than hipster yuppie points in a daily driver application.

Ya, i get it. They were fun when they were basically free. I had an 82 wagon and 84 hatchback. The short wb of the hatch along with the welded diff made it like a SxS on trails.

And now they're rare as fuck because of people like you doing things like that.

Don't have Facebook. I'm a fucking Dinosaur.
All good. I dont either. Fawk spacebook and myface. But it's pretty easy for me to say Subaru GL Facebook Marketplace. Click images. Then I visit site and I'm in. I changed the settings for my locale and Bam I get a good couple minutes of marketplace searching before I'm busted. When I find something I want I call my buddy who has Facebook.
 
I might like the contact info the red one. Not what I was looking for but maybe if the price was right.
