Excellent condition 2003 Subaru Forester XS with Automatic Transmission and AWD
Well kept and maintained irrespective of cost with 202,xxx miles on her, the place we bought it had cars with over 300k on them parked on the lot which looked and drove just as nicely, so it's clearly not a concern for these cars. Just had $2000 engine rebuild by Subaru specialist to correct worn oil control rings (fixing higher than average oil consumption), so new owner will benefit from all new rings, re-machined heads, all new gaskets and belts. As near as makes no difference - brand new engine. Always used Amsoil fully synthetic oil for changes and NAPA gold (glass-pack rather than cardboard) filters. Transmission and differential fluid was changed with engine rebuild, so that's also all fresh. The air conditioning was recently refilled and blows ice cold. Finally, note this is the 2.5L SOHC Boxer engine, which is easier to work on and more reliable than the DOHC equivalent. The exterior of the car belies its age and miles, the paintwork is almost completely dent free and there's certainly no rust on the frame. The wheels were refurbished by the previous owner, but 2 would benefit new centre caps to make them perfect. Tyres are in good condition and were recently rotated. Note that this car is also perfectly capable of mild off-roading (should one feel the need) with its legendary Subaru all-wheel-drive system and 18inch maximum wading depth. We live down a fairly rough track at the bottom of a very steep hill and it performed flawlessly come deep snow, flooded creek or sheet ice. As previously mentioned, car is XS trim so benefits: Climate Control Cruise Control Electric Windows Electric/Heated mirrors Heated front & rear window Heated seats Fog lights Front/Rear Disc brakes Subaru branded mats Rear bumper load protector Ipod compatible stereo (fitted by previous owner) In summary: this car is in fantastic condition and has had thousands in work done under our ownership, the new owner can enjoy many years of trouble free ownership. Drop me a message if you need any more information, would like to arrange a viewing, or want to talk about anything I've written here. Many thanks for looking. UPDATE 10/21/2013 - Just had the car inspected for the new owner and had two new lower ball joints fitted, other than that it received a clean bill of health. |

How Subaru saved itself by marketing to the gay community
Mon, Oct 17 2016Almost everyone who's in the car community, and even people that aren't, have probably heard the stereotype that lesbians drive Subarus. What you may not realize is that stereotype was fostered by Subaru, and it helped make the company relevant again in the '90s. This is the story told by NPR's Planet Money podcast. Apparently, as the company was trying to figure out who was buying its cars, the marketing folks discovered that gay and lesbian people were a large segment – along with all those outdoorsy types. The discovery led to subtle advertising directed specifically at what we now refer to as the LGBT community, which in turn led to more sales to gay and lesbian consumers. There were other components to Subaru's sales strategy in the '90s, but this particular campaign was an important part and quite successful. Thanks to that success, today we still have Subaru around building reliable, all-wheel-drive transportation, as well as rally-inspired sport compacts. There are of course many more details, but we don't want to spoil them for you. For the whole story, you need to head over to the Planet Money site and listen in.

2015 Subaru WRX looks to set a new benchmark in LA
Wed, 20 Nov 2013Subaru has just taken the wraps off of the new, 2015 WRX at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show. The totally redesigned sedan - the five-door option won't be offered - is more powerful, more fuel efficient (with the right transmission), better looking and more intelligently designed than the car it's replacing.
A new 2.0-liter, direct-injected, turbocharged flat-four sits thumping away under the hood, its top-mount intercooler getting force-fed air by a rather prominent hood scoop. Power output sits at 268 ponies and 258 pound-feet of torque, accessible between 2,000 and 5,000 rpm. While the new car only has a three-horsepower advantage on the current Impreza WRX, it delivers 14 more pound-feet of torque and delivers peak output across a much wider swath of the rev range (the old car netted 244 lb-ft at 4,400 rpm). All this extra grunt comes at a negligible weight penalty - a 2015 WRX with the six-speed manual is just 59 pounds heavier than a 2014 model.
As we said, a six-speed manual is will be available, and as a bonus, it packs one additional cog over the current, 2014 WRX's five-speed DIY transmission. So equipped, the WRX will scamper to 60 in just 5.4 seconds. As for the previously-confirmed continuously variable transmission, it will come with both six- and eight-speed manual shift modes, but will take half a second longer to get to the magical 60-mile-per-hour mark.
