I bought the car almost 2 years ago planning to keep it for a long time, so I've put in money into it as I was going to drive another 100k miles reliably. I changed wear and tear parts proactively, and put in select STi parts to make it fun to drive. Unfortunately, plans have changed now and I am selling it. My loss is your gain. This car should be very reliable for many miles to come.
The car has a few STi modifications which give it very good, stable, and precise handling. There is absolutely zero vibration in the steering wheel and the car feels very steady at speed on the highway. The quicker ratio steering rack makes a big difference and the car is very precise.
Service at 175k miles (when I bought the car):
Timing and Serpentine belts
Water pump
Pulleys
Valve cover gaskets
All oils changed -- Motor, Transmission, Rear Differential.
Spark Plugs
New Clutch and Flywheel
Brand New StopTech Rotors and Pads, OEM replacement.
Replaced Turbo with 45k miles.
Air filter
Since above service, have changed motor oil twice, and most recently today when I took pictures of the car.
Modifications:
STi Full Steering Rack and crossmember with Whiteline bushings
STi suspension, springs and struts
STi Full exhaust
STi Uppipe and Downpipe
Gruppe N Motor, Transmission, and Pitch mounts
SAMCO hoses
Boost Gauge on A-pillar
Hardwired for Valentine 1 radar detector
Cons:
ABS doesn't work, needs rear ABS hub rings to function properly.
Right front fender has some swipe damage (see pics)
Rear bumper peeling (see pics)
Car is now taken off insurance and not being driven anymore. Last oil change was done right before taking pictures, so no miles have been put on since. Overall, it is a very clean car which will serve the next owner well. It is not perfect however and does have dings and scratches.
NOTE: car will come with stock 16 inch wheels and all season tires that will need to be replaced soon. In most pictures, the car has my winter 17 inch setup.
Winter set: ASA 17 inch rims with Pirelli Sotto Zero snow tires. Tires used one winter, basically new.

Subaru updates EyeSight system with color-detecting cameras
Sun, 26 Jan 2014Subaru is giving its EyeSight driver assistance camera system a major upgrade for the 2015 model year with new color cameras, as well as reducing its size by 15 percent over the rather bulky original system.
Subaru locates its EyeSight hardware inside the vehicle at the top of the windshield, which is unlike most other camera-based systems that have their hardware mounted somewhere in the front fascia. The benefit is that these rather expensive components are protected from any detritus that may hit the car, but the original system's size ate up a chunk of the driver's outward view. Thus, the shrinkage should be appreciated by new owners.
The upgraded stereo cameras have a 40-percent longer and wider detection range than the original system's cameras, and their ability to see color allows the system to recognize brake lights at a speed differential of 30 miles per hour, instead of 19 mph before. And as before, EyeSight continues to offer adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning and pre-collision breaking that can slow the car automatically if an imminent accident is detected, even bringing the vehicle to a complete stop.
IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013
Wed, 02 Jan 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
The 2017 Subaru BRZ Series.Yellow is, wait for it, yellow
Mon, Jun 13 2016Scion is fading fast, but it seems Subaru learned a thing or two from the Toyota offshoot during their short time together. This new BRZ, with its oddly punctuated and not very subtle name, continues a line of special-edition Subarus that pair special paint and interior trim with black accents. It's called the Series.Yellow, and Subaru will build 500 of them for 2017. The Series.Yellow starts with the mildly updated 2017 BRZ and stacks the new Performance Package ( Brembo brakes, Sachs dampers, black 17-inch wheels) on top of the Limited trim. The Series.Yellow will come with the six-speed manual only, as it's required to get the Performance Pack. That also means it has the new 205-hp boxer four and a different final-drive ratio to go along with it. Aside from the yellow paint, exterior differences include black Subaru and BRZ badging, and a black surface for the rear spoiler. The interior gets it some yellow as well, with stitching on the seats, door panels, dash, steering wheel, floor mats, and shifter and e-brake boots. The interior grab handles are yellow-ized, and there are yellow patches at the top of the seat bolsters. Oh, and the seats have Alcantara inserts, but those aren't yellow. As the second in the Series series, it follows in the footsteps of the BRZ Series.HyperBlue from 2016. There's also precedent for special yellow Subarus, as 1,000 XV Crosstrek Special Editions from 2015 got yellow paint and black cladding. Yellow!
