Small backstory, some guy rear ended his POS Celica, told him to throw out a number needed to not call insurance, friend got $750 cash on the spot, junked the Celica, bought a Subaru Legacy

No pictures of said subie so just imagine what a $600 car looks like

From what he told me, my friend just blurted out $1,000. The guy took a look around the Celica and just pulled out $750 in cash

No reason not to Rally.

If I can take a Milan rallying next month he can take a $600 subaru rallying.

I’m honestly unsure

I’m guessing AWD - the FWD models were rare.

1996 was the last year for FWD in the US. You can still get FWD Subarus in Japan (the Impreza, at least)

Bought a house (later sold) in Rockville MD back in 1991 ... people across the street had a FWD Subie. I wondered why ....

I'm wondering if the guy who hit him isn't supposed to be in the US.

I bought a ‘91 manual, 4wd, Loyale wagon from the original owner for $800. Immaculate interior and no rust as it had been in AZ it’s whole life. Drove it home, spent $40 on engine seals and sold it a year later for $2,200. Now I miss it.

I bet it is a sorta like my $600 pile of pure, unadulterated sex appeal. Really though, how bad is it? :D
