Up for sale is my 2008 WRX hatchback.  87,300 miles and counting.  Stage 1 Torqued Performance tune since I bought it when it had 30k miles on it. The car is primarily my daily driver and has never been autocrossed, rallied, road raced, pulled, shifted hard, or even redlined.  Other than when I got the car tuned on a Torqued Performance tune, it has been babied.  I use to drive to work, visit my girlfriend, and cart my bicycles around, and that’s about it.  That being said, the car does have an extensive list of modifications, all of which were done by me personally and a very good friend and trusted mechanic, so everything has been done correctly.  Most of the mods, however, are NOT power mods.  The only and very few engine-related mods were done while servicing something else that made whatever part easy to replace, and the tune has been adjusted for the engine-related mods.  Most of the work went into bettering the interior, chassis, suspension, and making the car nicer rather than faster.  Car has $7,800 worth of aftermarket parts.

THE BAD.  Hillstart-assist and traction control don’t work.  The lights came on two years ago and the car works perfectly other than those lights being on.  ABS still works, but no traction control and hillstart-assist.  To fix this might be as simple as plugging in a wire or something, but I just didn’t want to mess with it as it doesn’t affect the function and performance of a car.   Airbag light recently came on for a bad driver’s airbag, which I had replaced with a new one.  That code went away, but the airbag light is still on.

I did an STI center console swap and STI front seat swap.  Wheels and tires came off a 0 mile 2012 WRX and have 1.5 summers of easy, oldman driving on them.  Torqued Performance tune/Cobb Accessport comes with the car.  Tune is solid and has been adjusted for the composite TGV deletes so that there are no CELs.  Acceleration is buttery smooth.  Nothing like the Cobb OTS maps or the OEM map.  Rotella T6 full synthetic oil changed every 3k miles on the dot by me personally.  Only Subaru OEM oil filters used.  Full sound deadening on both inside and outside door skins on all four doors and the hatch lid and floor.  HID low beams from The Retrofit Source, 4300K pure white.  None of the weird blue color you see with other HIDs.  LED interior lights, license plate bulbs, and LED switchback turn signals.  Full list of mods is included.

The car will be sold as it sits.  No parts will be taken off to decrease the value.  I am getting out of the Subaru game entirely, so I don’t want to mess with parting it out.  I am selling the car simply because it’s time to move on.  Nothing more, nothing less.  Never smoked in and never had any animals in it.

Pricing: $15,000.  Cash or cashier’s check.  If using cashier’s check, then the car and title will not be handed over until my bank has cleared the funds. 

NO payment plans.  NO trades.  NO lowballs.  Reasonable offers will be considered.  The car accelerates, runs, stops, and corners perfectly and without defect.  Test drives for serious buyers only.  NO test drives without me present in the car.  NO hard accelerating, braking, shifting, etc, during a test drive.  If you test drive the car, know that it is still my car and will be driven lightly.  NO joyrides.  NO joyrides.  NO joyrides.  Buyer will be required to sign a bill of sale at the time of purchase.  No minors without their parents/decision makers present.  Be confident and knowledgeable of how to drive a 5-speed.  You will not be learning in my car.  And again, reasonable offers will be considered.

Subaru mulling expanding Indiana plant for Forester, Impreza

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

Thanks to currency fluctuations and their impact on the bottom line, a growing number of Japanese automakers are starting to increase vehicle production in the US, and it appears Subaru could be the next to do so. According to Bloomberg, Subaru is looking into expanding production capacity at its Lafayette, Indiana assembly plant, which currently builds the Outback, Legacy and Tribeca as well as the Toyota Camry.
Subaru's Indiana plant currently has an annual maximum capacity of 310,000 units, but the automaker is expecting to far exceed that figure this year, with year-to-date sales of 299,788 units through November (not including Camry) - an increase of almost 30 percent over 2011. The report indicates that Subaru could expand the plant to add as many 50,000 additional units to the plant, likely in the form of either the Forester or Impreza.

Subaru lifts leg at Super Bowl, goes with Puppy Bowl ads instead

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

There will be many automakers spending millions upon millions of dollars advertising in the Super Bowl next weekend, but Subaru will not be one of them. Instead, the automaker will be catering toward animal - specifically dog - lovers with a set of commercials for the 2014 Subaru Forester that will appear during Puppy Bowl IX on Animal Planet.
The ads all build on Subaru's reputation of being a dog-friendly brand, and its latest "Dog Tested. Dog Approved" campaign will feature four 20-second spots. Of the four, "Tailgate" and "On The Lot" are definitely the most entertaining, while "Let's Talk Financing" and, especially, "Lint Roller" are snoozers.
Scroll down to watch all four spots, and there's also a press release listing other initiatives Subaru is planning to attract dog lovers. If you like dog commercials, you should check out the newest spot from Volkswagen, too.

Subaru supplies running low as automaker struggles to keep up with US demand

Sun, 02 Jun 2013

Consumers in the US are gobbling up Subaru models, a trend that may result in dealer shortages if the Japanese automaker isn't able to meet the surging demand. A quick look at the numbers reveals a 25.2 percent year-over-year jump in April US sales, and a 17-percent gain for the first quarter of 2013. The sales are so strong that the company's CEO, Yasuyuki Yoshinaga, told the Wall Street Journal that Subaru will exceed its 2016 goals (380,000 US units sold) by the end of the company's current business year. The US market has grown to be one of Subaru's best, with the company now logging about half its global sales on our shores.
While strong sales are good problem to have, the automaker has relatively limited production capacity, which may leave dealers with sparse inventory. Certain models, such as the popular Forester crossover (shown above), could hit 10,000 units this month with the plant at full capacity (far above its target of 8,000 units). On average, the US car industry has a 60-day supply of vehicles on hand, but inventory for the new Forester is at just 16 days. "If this situation persists, we'll face a supply shortage," Mr. Yoshinaga told the WSJ.
Despite being one of the smallest Japanese automakers by volume, this is all positive news for Subaru and parent Fuji Heavy Industries, which projects a second straight year of record operating profit thanks to strong US sales and a weaker yen.
