Lookslikeanevo - your legacy looked awsome, those are close to the same mods that I want to do, I want the front JDM grill and lip, and I also like the upgraded lights. Do you mind me asking why you sold it?

I thought you had HIDs on the car, I want to get a HID kit with a bluish tint and then just some yellow fog light bulbs, I not huge on a ton of mods that are not power/performance oriented but I have always loved HID bulbs, they just look classy.

Thats kind of funny because that is how I decided to get this car, I just saw a black on black on when I was driving to work one day, and I was in the market for a new car because the Evo was getting a little to expensive for me. And that is how I made my decision, I thought the same thing it is just a suttle luxury car with a good amount of power on tap to back up the looks

Very good choice on the LGT! And yeah, Legacygt.com is a great resource. I even signed up cuz I was looking at getting one earlier this year, but we decided on a new house instead. A JDM grill is a great upgrade, and since it's your DD...you'll want the extended arm rear in the center console!

Oh how I love the new blue trim in the SpecB, over the bloody red... But having the car only available in silver was odd to me. It's cool though seeing only 500 of them are made each year.

I actually contemplated doing the same two years ago when I found out I was going to be a Daddy. The GT seemed like the better family-hauler/DD. But I ended up keeping my EVO 8, and now I have my EVO 9 and Im happy that I stuck with my EVO. Regardless, the Legacy GT is an excellent car!
