GM4 = 2 dr sedan
GC4 = 4 dr sedan
GF4 = wagon

(digit 4,5 and 6 in the VIN)

or if you are a noob trying to be KEWl_ you call all old school imprezas GC8s for no good reason... they know not what they say!

The "b", "G" and "C" monikers are an internal subaru code and are nothing that anyone from the public to the dealerships even use anymore. The website that you saw got some old info and ran with it. pure and simple.

in other news, where I work NAPA, they still ask what the computer asks, " does that outback have a 2.2l or a 2.5l engine" (outbacks ONLY came with a 2.5l talking legacy outback, not impreza). parts websites are rare in knowing what subarus have or need.

this is a group of friends here, (except for brent, everyone LOVES him, unless he edits your posts)

We all admit we dont know everything (like when MATLOCKKKKK is on), but what we do know we share, sometimes sarcastically.

brent likes road apple ball gags


(and its race COURSE, not COARSE, eff-why-eye)

ok. i cleaned this fuck (S_H_I_T is stilla no-no word, so i had to use fuck in it's place.)

mike, edit this last post so i don;t have to delete it. i'm somewhat drunk right now so i may have deleted too much or not enough. either way it's gone forever. this is a WTB thread, not a discussion on grammer or gc8's not being pure-bred gc8's or whatever. i'll allow the clarrification on what's what for future reference.

in other news, brent is a uselss POS. anyone want to be the classified mod? (i keed i keed)
