Subaru Impreza Wrx Sti Sedan 4-door on 2040-cars
De Mossville, Kentucky, United States
I am selling my 2007 Subaru WRX STi. I am the only and original owner. Clear title in my possession. No accidents or damage. I purchased it brand new off the showroom floor in 2007 and have meticulously cared for it every day since. It has always been garaged. Non smoker, no kids and no dogs. I am almost 40 years old, so this is not a beat up highschool/college kid car like most STi's you will find out there. I have respected and taken care of this car for 8 years and it has rewarded me as being the best car I have and probably will ever own. It has no hidden issues or problems, runs extremely strong, is very fast and very fun and has been extremely reliable for me. Only two issues ever came up; a leaking rear cv boot, and later a stiff first gear sychro. Both were promptly resolved under warranty with a new rear axle shaft and a new first gear assembly. No other issues in 8 years of ownership. There are a few scratches/tiny dings as shown in the pictures, as well as roadwear/nicks on most of the front bumper and lower area of the hood as pictured. The car did not see much winter driving as I have had an SUV for winter duty, which is reflected in the low mileage for the model year. I am including the original set of winter wheels and tires I purchased after I bought the car. They also reflect the low winter use, and are not even at the wear bar indicators yet. I am also including several other original/extra parts. If you have never driven one of these cars, expect to be impressed. Their bite is much stronger than their bark. This a driver's car - fast, firm and responsive. This car is ready to go and is in immaculate condition compared to other STi's you will find with comparable miles. It performs beautifully, is very fast for being so close to stock, and is extremely rewarding to drive in all conditions. You will not be disappointed. Maintenance/parts list in approximate chronological order: -Followed factory break in procedure. -I had Subaru perform all service until around 10,000 miles. -All oil changes since then have been full synthetic Amsoil. -Cobb Tuning stage 1 Accessport tune to comply with factory warranty. -Cobb Tuning Double Adjustable Billet short shifter. -Borla XR-1 3" Stainless Catback Exhaust (a rare find nowadays - quiet at idle after warmup, very deep rumble after that, yet no highway drone). -Supension mildly tightened to reduce body roll and nose dive: Racecomp Engineering Yellows, Cobb Tuning Sway Bars with Billet Links, Rear aluminum Strut Brace. -Full service at 50,000 miles: all fluids and oils replaced, new dba4000 brake rotors, Stoptech pads, Goodridge Stainless Steel brake lines (all much better than stock). -Cobb Tuning Downpipe and SF Intake and Heat Shield, with matching stage 2 Accessport tune. According to Cobb this setup provides about 350hp/390tq at the crank. -OEM specific Bridgstone RE07R tires replaced last year. These tires were so good that I opted for them again. -Total of over $4000 invested in extras and upgrades. The winning bidder/offer will have to pick up the car within 10 days. I will not ship but I am willing to pick up buyer at nearby airports (SDF, CVG, LEX). $500 Paypal deposit required within 24 hours. Remainder of balance must be cash or certified check from major bank/credit union. Payment will have to clear before car or title is taken delivery of. Car is sold as-is, no warranty. If you arrive to pick up the car and find it not to your satisfaction, I will provide a refund of your deposit minus $200 for ebay fees. Please feel free to email me with any questions.

This Irishman really likes the Toyota GT86
Sun, 10 Feb 2013Okay, okay - by this point in time just liking the Toyota GT86 (Scion FR-S, Subaru BRZ, what have you) doesn't make you special. Even if you're a sort of funny sounding, funny looking Irishman, who probably isn't the most seasoned car reviewer ever, digging the GT86 is not news.
However, if, when you choose to publish your ten-minute-long review, you include exclamatory phrases about your own pubic hair, Ozzy Osborne's drug habit and "gentleman vegetable stuff," well sir, then you'll have our attention.
Don't give up on this video, available down below, after the first couple of minutes, we implore you. The silver-tongued Irishman doesn't really get warmed up until four minutes in, or so. Believe us, it's worth the wait.
2017 Toyota 86 Drivers' Notes | Fun, even with an automatic
Fri, Aug 25 2017The Toyota 86 is a car that enthusiasts begged Toyota to build for decades. It's small, lightweight and rear-wheel drive. Thanks to a partnership with Subaru that resulted in the BRZ, this stylish coupe hit the streets in 2012. In the U.S., the car was originally known as the Scion FR-S but was rebadged as a Toyota after Scion was axed last year. Along with a new name, the 86 received updated styling both inside and out as well as a revised suspension and a slight bump in power, at least for the manual models. This Hot Lava-colored car doesn't feature Toyota's slick six-speed manual. Instead it rocks a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters. While some enthusiasts may look down at that, automatics make up more than half of 86 sales. Still, the bones are there, and some people don't think the automatic is all that bad. Either way, we can't encourage enough people to buy these cars, as we want Toyota and Subaru to keep building them. Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder: When I first slid behind the wheel of the 86, I was surprised to see the gear selector and paddles. It's one of those cars that you don't think of as having anything but a manual transmission. Also, in an interior where all the controls and displays are underwhelming, a set of paddle shifters stands out as one of the few tactile objects in the cabin. I ended up using the paddles quite a bit, and found that I actually enjoyed using them, so much so that I'd actually consider opting for the automatic transmission were I to buy an 86. Despite shifts that aren't as razor sharp as they could be, the car's high-revving engine means that it still feels great to use. Riding an engine like this up to its redline, filling the cabin with noise, is the sort of thing that'll give you goosebumps. Being able to keep both hands on the wheel while shifting is a good thing for engagement in this car, based on my time with it. Plus, when I got stuck in traffic, I didn't have to wear out my left leg. The other brilliant thing about the Toyota 86 is its sense of balance. I loved the way it communicated its load distribution when cornering, whether on or off the throttle or brake. The fact that the nose of this car snaps right to where you want it when you start dialing in steering angle is satisfying. And its low stance and good view out the windshield make it really easy to place on the road.
Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"
