2003 Subaru Forester Xs Wagon 4-door 2.5l on 2040-cars
Clarksville, Tennessee, United States
|
Black w/ gray interior, 5-spd manual, moonroof, factory 6-CD changer, heated seats, clean, non-smoker, 113K mi. 2.5L boxer engine has had timing belt replaced with most recent full-service and head gasket job around 100K mi. Runs smooth, does not burn oil and engine in great shape! Due to previous location in Ohio, front-end control arm factory recall done with replaced sub-frame due to rust on the undercarriage. Tires in good shape, and only body rust is very small corner on rear driver's side fender.
The good: LOVED driving this car, and on top it it a great car in great shape. The bad: Recently the driver-side rear wheel bearing went bad - should have cost $400 or so to replace. However, after having my local Subaru dealership plus a trusted reputable local auto repair shop here inspect it, many parts would have to be replaced due to the corrosion. They also showed me other places underneath that would eventually have to be replaced as a result of the rust. The bill had climbed to over $1000 to just fix that problem, so I decided to bail. I am selling the car "AS IS" with no warranty - I know there are some mechanics out there that can either fix this cheaper and work on anything else that needs to be done, or one could easily part it out. Shipping/pick-up is up to you - although engine is great, I wouldn't plan on driving her far at all (if any) with the bad wheel bearing. Any questions please ask prior to bidding. Thanks for looking! |

Subaru Viziv 2 presages Tribeca replacement with diesel hybrid tech
Mon, 31 Mar 2014Subaru is in the middle of a new product bonanza. It has recent replacements for the Impreza and Forester at dealers, and soon we're getting the WRX, Legacy and if rumors are right the new Outback as well. Now, there are rumblings that there could be two more models from the Japanese brand on the way with styling inspired by the Viziv 2 concept from the Geneva Motor Show.
According to a company insider speaking with Motor Trend, the crossover concept shows the way for the brand's future design language. The shape would be used on a smaller CUV that is still being kept quite secret, and a second, larger one that would replace the recently axed Tribeca. The bigger model is the first priority and is planned as a new technology showcase.
It's rumored to use a turbodiesel, four-cylinder boxer engine that would be boosted with one electric motor on the front axle and two at the rear, with a plug-in hybrid system sourced from Toyota. It should provide a great mix of torque and fuel economy. A smaller flat-six engine would be a second powertrain option. Though the Viziv 2 concept only seats four, the production version would probably offer three rows.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
Subaru to stop building Camry for Toyota in the US
Fri, 09 May 2014It was back in 2007 that Subaru of Indiana Automotive, under contract from Subaru minority shareholder Toyota, built the first Toyota Camry at its plant in Lafayette, Indiana. Rumblings of the end of that contract work have been around for a while, as Subaru talked of expanding capacity to build more units and add a line for the Impreza, and Toyota talked of moving Camry production to its Georgetown, KY plant. The news was official internally last November when SIA Executive Vice President Tom Easterday told the Louisville Courier-Journal that Camry production would end. Now, Automotive News reports that both automakers have admitted publicly that the end will come in 2016.
SIA currently has a 170,000-unit capacity devoted to the home-brand Legacy and Outback models, while a $400-million expansion increases that to 300,000 units to prepare the facility for Impreza production in two years. Freeing up the 100,000 units of production devoted to the Camry means a 400,000-unit capability, which is far more than Subaru needs at the moment, but the Toyota exit will allow it to expand any way it sees fit. Subaru has said it will absorb the workers on the Camry line and no jobs will be lost, the mayor of Lafayette saying the development could change the timetable for the expansion.
