2005 2.5 GT Limited Automatic
Greetings one, greetings all.
I am new to these forums and a first time buyer of Subaru products. I choose the 2005 Legacy GT Limited edition, black on black. Can someone tell me what model it is, BP/BL, BE/BH, ???
This car is quite peppy and makes a great daily driver by any means. What have others been doing to "mod" this car?

Thanks for the resources. Heres what I got in terms of options:
Rear Spoiler
Popular Equipment Group 1
Subwoofer/Amp
All Weather Floor Mats
Wheel locks
I was considering the following:
Air Filtration System
Fog Lamp Kit
Center Armrest Extension
Rocker Panel Trim
For those who opted for the above, how do you like it? Was it worth the money?

I was considering the Legacy before I got my STi, but doesn't the GT Limited come with the fog lamp kit and air filtration?

WOW! Clear headlights changes the look completely! Can you tell me where you got them and how much they cost? I wonder how clear would look on my white car.
I did them myself. It took about 2 hours because i had to remove the entire front bumper. Since i've done mine, i've also cleared two 04 wrx's. One of which i painted the backs flat black.
Heres the basic procedure.
Remove headlights
Preheat conventional Oven at 285.
Put in 1 light at a time for 8 minutes(to melt silicone)
Pull apart the two pieces and remove the orange plastic reflectors.
Heat the headlight again for 5 minutes and reseal them
Put your front end back together and take pictures to show your friends
yeah, it defiantly makes the car look cleaner. I put in sylvania silverstar bulbs which are blue-ish-clear and blink orange. If your in the New England area i'll give ya a hand if you need it, but its pretty easy.

you guys with the legies ever go to legacygt.com? pretty much everyone there has an '05. I would say the consensus is that the Cobb Tuning Accessport is the best mod you can do to a stock car (check it out at cobbtuning.com). It runs about 650 but apparently it's worth it (mine should be here any day now). If you check out their site you can see what a difference even stage 1 (which is for a completely stock car) does for both horsepower and low-end torque. Other common mods are short throw shifter (Cobb, Kartboy, STI, there are a few others too), catless Uppipes (should reduce the turbo lag significantly), and a lot more people are starting to get downpipes and full turboback exhausts now (to upgrade to stage 2 with the Accessport you need at least a new downpipe and maybe a catless UP, you'd have to check their site). There's a lot out there - this baby's got a lot of potential, so let the modding begin!
