I'm very sad to see this car go, but I am putting my WR Blue 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX sedan up for sale.  This model has a 5-speed manual transmission and 190,802 miles, and includes the factory turbo boost gauge.  I originally acquired this car in February 2006 from Subaru of Dallas and it had 70,000 miles.  The car has been well maintained, and I have only used Mobil 1 full synthetic oil and changed it on a regular basis. It has a brand new MAF sensor, new Stoptech front brake pads, freshly turned front rotors, brand new Optima Red Top battery (one of the best batteries you can get).  I drained the rear diff and replaced it with Redline fluid at around 120,000 miles. The car has been modified, and comes with a catless Invidia bellmouth downpipe, custom 3" mid-piping, Magnaflow exhaust muffler, and Cobb AccessPort ECU flash using the Stage 2 93 octane base map.  I won't lie, this car is fairly loud, but it's not too bad and personally I find it makes driving the car even more fun.  I've driven the car hard, and it's seen more than a few autocross events, but I have taken very good care of it and it drives like a dream.  While I was a broke college student, the car stayed on the Economy AccessPort map for about 18 months and was driven like an old lady going to church, so it's not all hard miles.  The AC is still cold and works well. There is some paint oxidation on the roof, the hoodscoop, and the rear driver door, as well as some minor damage to the rear driver quarter panel and door.  It comes with the factory auto-dimming compass mirror, but the auto-dimming fluid inside the mirror has leaked and it no longer dims automatically, but with the window tint it is not really necessary, also the compass in it still works.  The front map visor clip just broke, but that part can be replaced for less than $2.  The tires have less than half their tread life left and aren't that new.  The car also is pre-wired for a subwoofer, and has a JVC KD-SH99 head unit along with aftermarket Pioneer speakers.  The sound quality is great in the car as I ram-matted (similar to Dynamat) and foamed all four doors, the trunk lid, and both front floor board and kick panels.  It did add some weight to the car but eliminates road noise, enhances the quality of music in the cabin, and also helps reduce the drone from the exhaust.  It's been my baby and I'm going to miss it, but I've got a 2012 STi now and cannot justify keeping both any longer, so this one is going to go.  Vehicle sold as-is.

Local buyers preferred, but I am willing to ship the vehicle as long as the buyer takes care of all the necessary arrangements and shipping costs.  I have a clear title in hand and will endorse it over as soon as payment has cleared.

2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek Special Edition shows its shining face to the Detroit crowd

Tue, Jan 13 2015

The 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek Special Edition is an easy model to spot thanks to its bright Sunrise Yellow paint. However, under the lights at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, the shade actually looks a bit darker than the blazing tone from the original photos. Subaru is only making 1,000 of these shining models, and appropriately, they hit the market in the spring when the sun starts shining. Beyond the bright paint, buyers get a Crosstrek with a power moonroof, body-color folding mirrors and blackened headlight bezels. Inside, there's Subie's Starlink infotainment system with a seven-inch touchscreen and two USB ports. The all-weather package should make things easier on cold days, too, with heated seats and side mirrors, plus a windshield wiper de-icer. The whole package based around the 2.0i Premium trim rings up for $25,290, plus $850 destination and delivery.

We're going to drive Subarus through Patagonia

Mon, Feb 8 2016

Later this month, Chris McGraw and I are going on an adventure. We're heading to South America with Subaru to drive cars through the wilderness, including the gorgeous landscape of Patagonia. It'll sort of be like that Top Gear episode, just without, you know, all the bad stuff (we hope). Since this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we're doing a huge blowout of coverage, and we want to bring you along for the ride. From February 16-21, we'll be posting video updates and a ton of social media coverage, so be sure to watch the Autoblog site as well as our YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter feeds for all of the latest sights and sounds from our amazing trip. Of course, we'll have a big feature story wrapping the whole experience up, after we get back and shake off some of the jet lag. We're stoked, and we hope you're just as excited to virtually come along for the ride. Stay tuned.

Subaru recalling 660k vehicles in some states for possible brake line corrosion

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

Subaru is recalling 660,238 vehicles located in 20 US states that use salt on their roads. It's possible that salty water could splash onto the rear brake lines, and it could eventually cause corrosion and potentially perforation, leading to a fluid leak.
The recall covers the 2005-2009 Outback and Legacy, 2008-2011 Impreza, 2008-2014 WRX and STI and 2009-2013 Forester. However, only vehicles currently or formerly registered in the following snowy US states or districts are covered: Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. The company previously recalled the 2005-2009 Legacy and Outback to repair this problem, and now it's added the additional models, plus any of the original cars it missed the first time.
According to the defect notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Subaru found a total of 24 cases of corrosion in US leading up to the recall. There was a single case of actual brake line perforation, but it happened in Switzerland, according to the document. The company believes that it would take seven or more seasons of winter driving on salty roads before any corroding would begin.
