Up for sale, 2005 Subaru Outback 2.5 Limited. This is the higher fuel-mileage engine and it is loaded with every option. It is my daily driver but I have a baby on the way so I need something with more back-seat/trunk space. Here are the key points on this car:

The Good:
This car is a 5 speed manual
It has every option except for the automatic transmission and gas guzzling powerful engine
The car has a current emissions certification from the state of Illinois
Big moon roof (its huge)
No rust
Very reliable. Ive owned the car for 2 years and I have never had a problem. 
Clean Title
A/C works great
Power Windows
Power locks
Dual front and side airbags
Heated seats
Dual Zone automatic climate control
Gets 23-24 Mpg with a combination of city and highway (about 40%/60%)
Comes with Rubber floormats and trunk liner
In the last 6 months it has had both lower ball joints replaced, the drivers side axle replaced, alignment, tire rotation and the passenger side control arm replaced. These are wear items and need to be replaced every 100k miles or so
1 year ago I replaced all four brake rotors, all the brake pads and put new calipers on the front wheels as a precaution
It has excellent Hakkapelitta winter/snow/ice tires. They have very deep tread

The not so good:
174,456 miles. This will go up each day as I drive it every day
Drivers interior door panel is damaged. Not sure how, it was like that when I bought it. Has some ripples in it (see picture)
The 2 rear interior door panels have a small tear (see pictures)
Uses 1 qt of oil and 1 qt of coolant every 1000 miles or so. Just check it periodically
Has 175k miles worth of minor door scratches
The gas filler door is a little hard to release so I just leave it partly open sometimes
The passenger heated seat only works on the back, not the seat bottom

Note that I will be keeping the Hella lights on the roof of the car, as well as the bike racks. However, the factory roof rack and cross bars will stay with the car.

I am negotiable on the price but the Kelly Blue Book rates the car from $5497-$7272. I have priced it at the low end due to the door panel damage and paint scratches.

As you can see, I have included all the information I can think of for this car. I would be happy to show you the vehicle history report upon request. It comes up perfect with a note about a vehicle inspection notice that was resolved.

UK designer to make WRX Concept-aping body kit for production Subaru

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

Remember the Subaru WRX Concept shown at the 2013 New York Auto Show, the one almost everyone loved but no one expected Subaru to make? Indeed, that Parnassian "design statement" led to a production design that came from a good middle class neighborhood known for its office parks and pasture land. UK designer Michael Bond is offering to change that, the man behind the yet-to-be-produced Rumbler "Superhero Utility Vehicle" touting the Subaru WRX Concept 13, which would take a customer's new WRX and turn it into something pretty close to the original concept.
That means new front and rear clips, including a redesigned rear diffuser to increase downforce, but a spoiler can be installed if the buyer decides that what he wants. The car won't be an exact replica of the NYIAS concept since that would infringe on Subaru's intellectual property, but it isn't clear yet how the design would be altered. Bond's site says that once he gets 50 confirmed orders, his team will order a WRX and begin the process of creating the new bodywork. It is claimed that once work begins, it will be four to six months to "[present] a completed model for public view."
Bond says the price will come down depending on the number of orders beyond 50, but doesn't give any indication of how much those first 50 cars could cost. If you're keen, though, head over to the site and fill out the enquiry form. Who knows if the Concept 13 will happen, but so far this is the best chance you have of getting what could have been.

Nine cars we wish were convertibles

Thu, Apr 16 2015

The snow has melted, the sun is shining, and the days are getting longer. At the Autoblog Detroit office we feel like our winter hibernation is finally over. And with warmer temperatures come visions of opening up a convertible roof and cruising. You know, just turn up the bass and let the Alpine blast. There are plenty of droptops on sale in the US, and more on the way (like the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata). That said, we always want more. More! More! More! In that spirit, we cooked up a list of nine cars aren't currently sold as convertible, but ought to be. Check out our picks, below. Summer's just around the corner. Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S In some parallel universe, this car actually happened. Toyota showed us a FT 86 Convertible concept at the Geneva Motor Show in 2013, and we immediately started licking our chops over the thought of a rear-wheel-drive convertible based on the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S twins. These days, the MX-5 Miata is our only option for affordable roadster fun. A competitor to the Mazda seems like a no-brainer to us, especially since we have naught but good to say about the BRZ/FR-S as-is. Unfortunately in our present timeline, this car is as likely for production as a BRZ STI. Which is to say, not very. Dang. Lexus RC F Unlike the FR-S, a convertible from Toyota's luxury division might actually see the light of day. The current IS convertible is about to be phased out, and the Lexus LF-C2 concept from the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show is really a thinly veiled look at a possible RC convertible. A droptop RC would be plenty good, but let's reach for the starts. What we really want is to run topless in an RC F, complete with that powerful, loud, 5.0-liter V8 engine. Lexus says the RC F is a true competitor to the BMW M4. If that's true, it only makes sense for Lexus to mimic the Germans and offer its performance coupe in a folding hardtop form. Maybach Landaulet Maybach is bach back, recast as an upper crust trim level for Mercedes-Benz. The Mercedes-Maybach S600 is seriously awesome, and more luxurious than a trip to the spa. But why not go a step into the truly ridiculous levels of extravagence and bring back that open-top Landaulet? We think your local princess will love this idea, and with better S-Class bones underneath, Jeeves will have a pretty enjoyable ship to steer, too. Besides, with that slick new Mercedes design language, a Landaulet redux wouldn't be nearly as hideous as the old model, pictured here.

Cadillac Celestiq and Honda Civic Type R revealed | Autoblog Podcast #740

Fri, Jul 29 2022

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder. They kick things off by talking about the latest vehicle reveals, specifically the Cadillac Celestiq show car and the 2023 Honda Civic Type R. They discuss Chevy's move to offer incentives to help prevent customers from flipping the new Corvette Z06. Greg has spent time behind the wheel of the 2022 Range Rover First Edition, while John has been driving the 2023 Genesis GV60 Performance. From the mailbag, a listener is looking to replace a 2003 Subaru Forester with something that can hold three dog crates and gets decent fuel economy. Another listener asks whether to keep a 2008 Porsche 911 Turbo or replace it with a 992-generation 911 for which he is awaiting an allocation.
