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.

2017 Subaru Impreza starts at $19,215 and comes with a five-speed manual

Wed, Oct 19 2016

Subaru released pricing for the all-new 2017 Impreza sedan and hatchback, which were unveiled at this year's New York Auto Show. With the $820 destination and delivery fee, the 2.0i Impreza sedan with a five-speed manual starts at $19,215 (the CVT is an extra $1,000 on both body styles) while the hatchback costs $19,715 – $500 extra regardless of trim. Both the four- and five-door Imprezas represent a price increase of about $100 over the previous model. The range-topping Limited trims, though, are an additional $1,500 from the previous year. The Impreza sedan and hatchback are available in four different trims including 2.0i, 2.0i Premium, 2.0i Sport, and 2.0i Limited. The 2017 Impreza rides on Subaru's new Global Platform, a modular platform that will underpin all of the automaker's future vehicles. Besides the new platform, the new Impreza gets a host of standard features, which include: a 6.5-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, power windows, power door locks, and a tilt and telescoping steering column. Subaru's faithful Symmetrical All-Wheel-Drive system returns, as does the 2.0-liter Boxer engine. The motor, though, produces 152 horsepower, up from 148 horsepower, thanks to direct injection and other unnamed enhancements. With the release of the Impreza's pricing, Subaru also confirmed a five-speed manual transmission will be offered on the base 2.0i models, as well as the 2.0i Sport trims. The 2.0i Premium and top-of-the-line 2.0i Limited models only come with a CVT. The 2.0i Sport trim, which sounds like the most enthusiast-oriented option, adds sportier suspension tuning, Active Torque Vectoring, and 18-inch wheels. The 2.0i Limited trims, while carrying a substantial increase over last year's model, are much more opulent with LED headlights, a leather-trimmed interior with contrast stitching, automatic climate control, and an optional Harman/Kardon audio system. The 2.0i Sedan with the CVT is the most fuel-efficient model with an EPA-estimated 28 miles per gallon in the city and 38 mpg on the highway. Those figures are a one-mile per gallon increase over the previous 2.0i model. Imprezas with a CVT will be available later this year, while vehicles with the five-speed manual transmission will go on sale early next year.

Subaru allegedly developing mid-engine hybrid sports coupe

Thu, Mar 10 2016

A mid-engine, hybrid sports coupe could give Subaru a high-performance halo model in the coming years. According to Car and Driver, "a source close to Subaru" let slip the company has been testing the prototype powertrain underneath a BRZ at its proving grounds in Japan. "Whether the end result will be a two-door sports coupe or some kind of sports crossover/CUV is still in the evaluation stage," the anonymous source told Car and Driver. "A coupe seems more likely, though." The vehicle's layout allegedly uses a mid-mounted 1.6-liter turbocharged boxer engine with hybrid assist to spin the rear wheels, and two electric motors at the front would power that end. The resulting all-wheel drive powertrain would have about 330 horsepower or more, Car and Driver claims. If a production version happens, it would use the upcoming Subaru Global Platform. Rumors about Subaru's increased development of hybrids offer some support for this alleged sports coupe. The company reportedly might use electrification to boost the next-gen STI. In 2014, a story also suggested the automaker could revive the SVX as a performance-oriented hybrid shooting brake. More recently, even its Viziv GT Vision Gran Turismo concept combined a turbocharged boxer with three electric motors. While a Subaru sports coupe piques our interest, we are taking the prospect with a grain of salt for now. The Japanese brand has a tendency of teasing performance models but not actually delivering on them – like the STI Performance Concept (above) or the aggressive styling of the last WRX Concept. There could also be a long wait before we see what the company is developing. According to Car and Driver, a concept is at least two years away. Then it would take even more time for execs to okay production. Related Video:

Lincoln Aviator returns, VW ponders pickups, and Subaru Forester endures

Mon, Apr 2 2018

NEW YORK – Volkswagen is taking a hard look at a pickup truck, the Lincoln Aviator is back, and you love old Subarus (we'll explain). The New York Auto Show returned last week with flair and a wide range of promising reveals. Let's break down some of the big news, plus a few things you might have missed. News: Ford is fortifying Lincoln with the Aviator SUV Views: Doing a mid-size SUV is obvious. Calling it the Aviator wasn't. I like it. Using Navigator design cues, this thing looks the part and should give Lincoln some energy and sales volume. Not playing in the midsize SUV segment has been a mistake for Ford's luxury brand, and the Aviator should fill a much-needed hole. Props to Lincoln for dusting off the Aviator name, most recently used on a rebadged Ford Explorer built in 2003-2005. It sounds classy and historic, like something from 1930s, even though it only dates to the tail end of the " Friends" era. Speaking of names, when the MKC gets a new one, Lincoln should dust off Zephyr, a moniker it actually used in the '30s and then briefly in the early 2000s. Why use the Aviator name? Jim Farley, Ford's president of global markets, said it's about reminding consumers that Ford has traditionally built strong SUVs. "I think in a way the legacy is falling in love with what we do best," he said. "We wanted to go back to our roots. We know how to do this well." Farley also said the Aviator could prove to be Lincoln's bestseller. The Aviator was well-received in New York, earning our Best in Show award and garnering cautiously optimistic reactions from some analysts. "Lincoln ran this experiment once before ... differences in the market conditions, stronger differentiation and appetite for utility vehicles may prove a different story for this Aviator," IHS analyst Stephanie Brinley said. View 19 Photos News: VW surprised the car world with the Atlas Tanoak pickup concept Views: Good move. VW should build this. The concept is based on a longer version of the Atlas platform and would take aim at the midsize truck segment. VW is using this prototype to "gauge the reactions" of automotive influencers, but make no mistake, the Tanoak is totally doable. Using Atlas bones and mechanicals punched up with rugged styling and some soft-road capability, the Tanoak would grow VW's portfolio in a smart way. The Atlas Cross Sport concept, also revealed in New York, signals that Atlas expansion is already underway.
