2003 Subaru Wrx Sportwagon For Sale on 2040-cars

Year:2003 Mileage:89605
Location:

Lubbock, Texas, United States

The Bad News:

 The car has been rear-ended twice (March 2006 and April 2009) and sustained $5400 worth of hail damage in 2008. I had a dent repaired in the front passenger door in 2012 and the door and right front quarter panel were painted during that repair.

 The 2006 rear end collision involved $6500 worth of repair which involved replacement of the rear hatch, bumper, rear floor pan, exhaust (replaced with a 2.5” Borla Cat Back), and a pull and repair of the rear unibody.

 The 2009 collision was less costly (~$1600) and resulted in the replacement of the hatch and the rear bumper.

 The 2008 hail damage resulted in  the hood, roof, and most of the sheet metal on the left hand side of the car being replaced.

 Because of all the body work the only original paint on the car was on the right rear passenger door and the right rear quarter panel. As these were noticeably faded relative to the rest of the car, I had the right hand side of the car painted in May 2014.

 Body shop repair records are available on request.

 

The Good News:

 Mechanically the car is sound. None of the body damage has affected the way the car drives.

 Because of all the body work the oldest paint on the car is from 2006.

 The car has less than 90,000 miles on it and I am the original owner. Oil was changed every 6 months with full synthetic (synthetic blend a few times) and I have all the service records.  Other than two trips to the west coast the use of this car has been limited to daily driving to and from work. I have an Excel file that summarizes the car's service and repair history that I can forward on request.

 

Other:

  • The current tires have ~20,000 miles on them.
  • 60K Service: Timing and AC belts were replaced in July 2009 
  • Leaking A/C compressor seals were recently replaced.
  • The battery was replaced in March 2014.

 

Add Ons:

  • Rota Wheels
  • Subaru Performance Cold Air Intake
  • Borla Cat Back Exhaust
  • JVC DVD with USB and Aux inputs.
  • Tinted Windows

Bidders with no feedback will be declined. A $500 deposit is required within 72 hours and the balance of payment is due within one week. As soon as the check or money order for the balance clears, the car is yours. Buyer is responsible for shipping or pick up.

Subaru offers glimpse of Viziv 2 Geneva concept

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Subaru clearly sees something special in its Viziv crossover concept. After debuting it at last year's Geneva Motor Show and evolving it for the Tokyo Motor Show, the Japanese brand is bringing a Viziv 2 concept to this year's Geneva show on March 4. It also has a few other cards up its Swiss sleeve, too, as it has plans to display its new WRX STI road car and racecar for the Nürburgring 24 Hours this summer.
The third iteration of the Viziv gets reshaped boomerang headlights and new LED foglights, but that's all we know for the moment, because Subaru has only released a single teaser rendering along with a tantalizing claim that the showcar "signifies a future path" for the brand's next models.
The powertrain for the Viziv 2 is also still a secret. Both previous concepts used three-motor hybrid systems matched to continuously variable transmissions. In the first concept, primary power came from a diesel engine, while gasoline power was said to motivate the second evolution in Tokyo.

2015 Subaru WRX: Road trip to Maine [w/video]

Fri, Nov 28 2014

After driving one of the best sport compacts on the market to one of the best-driving-roads states in the Union, who'd have thought that one of my big takeaways would be... great fuel economy? And yet, after putting more than 2,200 miles on our long-term 2015 Subaru WRX, driving from Ann Arbor, MI, to The Great State of Maine and back, my overall fuel consumption figures were almost as baffling as the premium-gasoline prices throughout Canada. In the early part of the now-past autumn, my wife Molly and I were happy to make use of the long-term WRX for our annual road trip from Michigan to Maine. Our goal, as ever, was to fit as much hiking, boating and lobster eating as we could into a one-week span. And, with the sporting Scoobie as our ride this time, I also hoped to spend time bombing down some of my favorite roads through the White Mountains. Anyone that pays attention to the industry knows that New England is a hot spot for Subaru sales, but it turns out that the WRX is just about tailor made for enjoying the best of Maine, too. First up, though – as it was the most surprising to me – is the fuel economy story. I knew going into the trip that I'd log more than two grand on the odometer, but I never expected the returns to be quite so positive as they ended up netting out. My total observed economy over 2,226 miles was 28.38 miles per gallon, or just a fraction better than the EPA estimated highway number of 28 mpg. How'd I do that? My total observed economy over 2,226 miles was 28.38 miles per gallon. Well, for starters, the stretch of Canadian highway between Michigan and Vermont is exceptionally long, flat, straight and dull. Excepting the inevitable traffic around Toronto, the trip is mostly of the "set it and forget it" variety, typically at a cruise of about 72 miles per hour (so as not to attract the Mounties). Doing that haul, I had one tank of premium (15.9 gallon capacity) last for 466 miles, running a trip-best 31.9 mpg. Considering that the Canadian petrol was running me roughly five American bucks per gallon, I appreciated the Subie's newfound frugality. One small issue, tangentially related to fuel, did crop up on the road. The WRX's gas door stopped popping open when I pulled the lever after my second fill up. As it turned out, there is a technical service bulletin out for this very issue, which was looked after as soon as we got back to the States.
