Legacy GT to G37S

Hi everybody, I should be joining the 3 pedal sedan club on soon. Been working with my local dealer for a couple weeks and he finally scored a black 6-spd sedan for me. Should be here tomorrow, pickup on Saturday.

Kinda sad ditching my 2010 Legacy GT, but it just isn't working for me. While fast, the overall driving experience is underwhelming. I'm looking forward to a more rewarding overall drive

I promised the wife no mods with this car, but I'll probably do some little things, like tint, getting rid of the I N F I N I T I across the back of the car, maybe vinyl wrapping the window trim or grill in my free time, but that is about it.

So here is my stupid noob ? I have 6 quarts of 75W-90 Subaru Extra-S trans fluid. This stuff is like $15 a quart...worth saving to put in the G or try and sell it?

Welcome. I say sell the oil's because I think the 90 might be too think for our engine. I could be wrong though. I normally stick to what the user's manual says. 5W-30 but I use 0W-30.

Meh, the 2010+ Legacy just didn't seem as special as the previous generation. De-contenting really took its toll, and the suspension sucked. Going into the 3rd year for that model and still no replacement shock option.

Getting tinted on Saturday...35% all around and 15% on the moonroof.

Far better driving experience than my LGT.
