Up for sale is my 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX (non-smoking driver).  I am the second owner of this vehicle and originally purchased it in 2005 w/ 12K miles from CarMax.  This car is my pride and joy and I have enjoyed every moment of it.  The WRX is for sale simply due to the fact that I need a larger vehicle.  Title is clean and on hand. (2) sets of keys and fobs available.  I have done a lot of work to this car and it has its fair share of upgrades.  The car is in good overall condition w/ normal wear and tear.  Paint is Black Pearl – gold specs in the paint when under the sun.  The turbo was recently replaced @ 87,277 miles by a local Subaru dealer (service record available, under 10K miles on turbo).  Current mileage is 98,445.  Routine oil changes performed using only Full Synthetic Oil.  Only used premium gas since the day I purchased the vehicle.  WRXs in general have a lot of ‘body roll’ – since upgrading aspects of the suspension this problem has been fully resolved!  The upgrades that I have done include the following:

 

·         Cobb Tuning Front Strut Tower Bar

·         Cobb Tuning Rear Strut Tower Bar

·         Cobb Tuning Front Anti-Sway Bar

·         Cobb Tuning Rear Anti-Sway Bar

·         Perrin Rear Sway Bar End Links

·         Cobb Tuning SS 3” Turbo Back Exhaust (includes Downpipe)

·         Cobb Tuning Up-Pipe

·         Cobb Tuning Lowering Springs

·         Cobb Tuning Access Port (Currently programmed for Stage 2)

·         Cobb Tuning SF Intake (extra Air Filter included)

·         Eclipse Navigation/DVD/CD/Sirius Radio Player

 

The vehicle will be sold as-is, no warranty.  Buyer is responsible for all shipping charges incurred.

Subaru turns a WRX STI into a bobsled and (barely) makes it work

Fri, Mar 17 2017

When asked how confident he felt of a successful full run down the St. Moritz-Celerina Olympic Bobrun in his specially prepared Subaru WRX STI, professional rally and stunt driver Mark Higgins responded, "50/50." In reality, he was probably being generous. It wasn't supposed to be so death-defying. In fact, Subaru's original plan was to have Higgins make several runs down the icy slope, some with journalists in the passenger seat. We were among those who traveled all the way to Switzerland for the chance to experience an automotive bobsled ride. One look at the run's famous Horseshoe Corner was all it took for us to second-guess that idea. Well, that and our pesky sense of self preservation. Higgins, though, is one of those rare humans to have been born without that fear-of-death gene. Not only is the Manx driver a professional stuntman – his resume includes sequences for Daniel Craig's James Bond – he also won the British Rally Championship three times and is the four-wheeled record holder at the famed Isle of Man Snaefell Mountain Course. So, when Higgins says some sort of vehicular stunt has only half a chance at success, well, let's just say that most mortals would say something more akin to "a snowball's chance in hell." On the topic of snow and balls, it's worth noting that the timing of Subaru's bobsled run wasn't set by choice. The Olympic Bobrun hosts regular events every winter through late February or early March. Since the track at St. Moritz is the only run in the world without an artificial cooling system, warm weather means no sledding. Combine those two facts and you end up with a very narrow window in which Subaru could go about making the modified track and a WRX STI actually fit together. Enter the boffins at Prodrive. The British engineering firm first started modifying vehicles for racing in 1984. By 1990, Prodrive was focused on turning turbocharged Imprezas into championship winners for the likes of Colin McRae, Richard Burns, and Petter Solberg. So it comes as little surprise that Subaru turned back to Prodrive to figure out how to modify a 2015 WRX STI in a way that would make it survive the pounding it would sustain on a bob run. For the record, this isn't just any 2015 WRX STI. It's actually the same car Higgins used in 2014 to set a lap record at the Isle of Man.
