Hi folks,


This one runs pretty well, but has some issues. 

Head gasket has had a very small drip onto the right side headers for years with no progression. There is no oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil, but if parked for many days, it will smoke a bit when the headers heat up. As a result I've only taken it out when there is water on the ground since the Fall when I got a new truck. It would be best to do the headgasket now-ish. Needs a new timing belt soon anyway, so...

New rear lower control arms two years ago. New rear brakes at the same time. Maybe 10k miles since. Will need new front brakes soon (runout is at the limit for spec and there is a mild shudder when braking at speed.)

Patched minor holes over the wheel wells. Everywhere else is solid with a few tiny spots in paint. No rust on roof, rest of body, etc. Body is in great shape and car feels very solid on the road. Engine light is ON--OBD codes say "small vacuum leak" (yes there's a code for "small" vacuum leak). I had it smoke tested once and they couldn't find it. It is most likely due to the aftermarket cruise-control plumbing and will most likely disappear when the engine is pulled and reinstalled for the headgasket job. Also, the exhaust can snapped at the rear gasket. The mid-pipe/cat is perfectly fine; the pipe to the exhaust can itself is what broke. I jerry-rigged it but it doesn't sound wonderful and the exhaust can will need to be replaced.

Bunch of other stuff has been done to keep it running. I'll update later when I'm in front of my books. I wanted to get this up now because it is due for inspection at the end of March and will not pass.

Sold AS-IS, but at a song. This is a fundamentally sound car. Tires are good. If it gets to $500, I'll throw in a full set of snow tires for it in excellent condition.

This would be a great bargain for someone who can do the work themselves, or even if you need to pay to have it done. Great,. safe car for a student, ski bum, camper, etc.

Questions? Send me an email through eBay and I'll let you know ASAP or send you my phone number.

Subaru could have all-electric CUV by 2021

Thu, Aug 11 2016

Subaru doesn't exactly have an industry-leading electric vehicle program. It sells the Impreza Sport Hybrid in Japan and the Crosstrek Hybrid in the US. There have been electrified rumors and concept cars, but Subaru has been more content to promote getting out into the environment rather than using your car to help it. But maybe this'll change in 2021. That's when, according to a report in the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun newspaper in Japan, the automaker will introduce an midsize, all-electric AWD CUV in the US. The EV would be based on the Forester or Outback and use a new global platform. As for where the cells, batteries, or motors would come from, there was no mention. The newspaper cited unnamed sources and all that an on-the-record spokesperson would say is that, "We have yet to decide on any specifics at the moment." Or, as Subaru of America's national manager of product communications, Dominick Infante, told AutoblogGreen, "It's a bit early for us to discuss electric vehicles and PHEVs." There's a good reason for Subaru to be considering going electric, and it's the same one that's pushing the entire industry to zero-emission vehicles: tighter emissions regulations. As much as we want to know everything now, it appears that Subaru is taking the same approach to all-electric vehicles as it did with hybrids. At the New York Auto Show in 2013, Subaru's executive vice president Tom Doll said that, "We at Subaru were not the first to market with a hybrid, but we sure made sure we did it right." If it takes the company until 2021 to release an EV, it had better get it right. Related Video:

Subaru Global Platform shows us the bones of future models

Mon, Mar 7 2016

Subaru will follow a current industry trend by introducing a modular chassis later this year, and the so-called Subaru Global Platform will underpin all of the Japanese automaker's future models. We'll see it first on the new Impreza, which will go on sale in the second half of 2016. Subaru claims its new platform offers 70-100 percent greater rigidity compared to the company's current models, and the stiffer chassis means less vibration travels through the vehicle to the steering wheel and seats, which results in an easier time for the driver. A 40-percent increase in impact energy absorption should also mean improved safety. Customers might experience a more exciting drive from the future Subarus, too. The company claims the new platform lowers the center gravity by 0.2 inches, which should sharpen handling. The engineers now mount the rear stabilizer directly to the body, which is said to reduce body roll by 50 percent over current models. It also supports hybrid, plug-in, and EV drivetrains to adapt to the future. After the Impreza lets us experience the Subaru Global Platform later this year, the company already has other models with it under development. For example, the XV Concept from Geneva hints at a sharper look for the next-gen compact crossover. The new WRX reportedly joins the range in 2017 and possibly gets an extra boost from hybrid power. A seven-passenger CUV also joins the US lineup in 2018. So much new product on the way could let Subaru keep up its brisk sales pace for years to come.

(FHI), the manufacturer of Subaru automobiles, has unveiled an overview of the Subaru Global Platform, which is currently under development as the architecture to be used for all the Company's next-generation vehicles. The Subaru Global Platform is part of the six initiatives to enhance the Subaru brand described in the Company's mid-term management vision, "Prominence 2020," announced in 2014. Together with the horizontally-opposed engines, Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD), and EyeSight that represent Subaru's core technologies, the new platform will constitute the basic foundation of the next generation of Subaru vehicles.

2013 Subaru WRX Special Edition

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Two months ago, I was carving pumpkins in a canyon - last week, I was carving canyons in a pumpkin. I genuinely prefer the latter.
It's hard to miss the 2013 Subaru WRX Special Edition. The twins (the automaker is offering the package on both the WRX and its higher-performing STI sibling - just 300 copies in total) arrive in Tangerine Orange paint with Jet Black wheels, black exterior mirrors and black front fender badges. The purely cosmetic upgrades are carried inside the cabin with black cloth upholstery contrasted with orange stitching on the seats, doors, shift boot and piping on the floor mats.
After a day, I completely forgot about the controversial orange paint (you either love or hate its burnt pumpkin color) and focused on the simple joy of driving the rally-inspired Subaru WRX.
