I currently drive an 87 GL-10 Turbo 4wd Wagon.

I am considering upgrading to a legacy turbo.. I found a decent deal on a 92, but I don't know much about them. If it were an older soob, I could spout off info and known problems all day long.

So on that note, is there anything in particular I should watch out for when checking this thing out? its a 92 legacy turbo sedan. 5spd Awd.

Common failures? Little sneaky things that would be missed by the casual observer?

Any help or tips would be appreciated. I would really like one of these things, but I don't want to shoot myself in the foot(proverbially, of course)

1. Do you want to sell your GL turbo wagon?
2. If so how much?
3. If so so, Where are you?

Yes, I was considering selling My GL-10 TurboWagon
If I do, I will probably be looking to get around $2000 for it.

I am near Dallas, TX

Buy it!Rarest of the rare.Look for smooth boost,tire wear,go fast stop hard to see if car pulls.I don't know though it would have to be in pretty bad shape or priced way to high to not be a good buy imho.

So what is a good buy on a 92 legacy turbo sedan?

I saw what Kelley blue book says, but that doesn't usually match reality very well..

when looking at a new leg, check the CVs, funny rattles, window issues (ie at 80mph) smooth boost, and drive another one first, like a buddies, so you have something to compare it to. good luck

Consider modification level. No mods is usually better. Stock sized wheels, Fram air filter etc..

Also look at the area its from.
