For your consideration is my 2005 Subaru STI, nearly mint and with lots of cool modifications. This vehicle has been featured in the World of Wheels car show in Kansas City, taking first place 2 years in a row. It took 1st place in NOPI, arguably the largest import car show in the world, in the vinyl design category in 2007 and 1st in over a dozen other car shows locally. The car has ALWAYS either been under a Wolf Revolution car cover in a driveway, or in a garage under cover. The car does have 38,400 miles, but has been in my possession since brand new in June 2004, and is on only its 9thoil change (synthetic of course). So that means it’s been driven only an average of about 4K miles a year. That said, here is the description from bumper to bumper: The hood is a custom Kevlar fiber weave having a blue/gold tone (I still have the original hood and is mint) and is lifted by TEIN hood dampers so the hood prop is no longer needed. Due to the speeds the car is capable of, I installed hood pins to assure me that the hood could not come loose and hit the windshield. The underside of the hood has been hand shaped and painted to match the exterior color of the car. There is a blue RFI blow off valve on the inlet of the intercooler, coming from a SPT high air flow intake which replaced the factory intake(still have that and was painted to match the car). The factory turbo dumps into a 4” bell mouth Invidia downpipe. The exhaust is a 3” PIT performance exhaust which sounds incredible (I still have the factory exhaust which has less than7K miles). I did not crack the motor to do performance upgrades but there are fresh platinum spark plugs which were installed about 5K miles ago when the carwas placed on a 4 wheel dyno. The car pulled 293hp at the wheels on 91 octane gas and could be tuned to 310hp at the wheels, if the fuel was leaned out. This is about a 100hp increase from the factory settings. I chose to keep it safe and leave the gas mix richer, resulting in an occasional back fire at full throttle shifts in 1st and 2nd (fans loved the 2-3 flame when it was really getting it). The wheels are the original factory but have been professionally painted to match the cars color scheme. The tires are brand new with less than 1K miles. I also have a summer set of tires with about 7Kmiles and are a bit taller (better ride) and on the silver BBS rims. The interior dash and vents have been hand painted with 10 coats of matching blue paint and 12 coats of clear, making a stunning shine. The DVD player is top of the line Kenwood Excelon DDX 7015, which cost $1800 brand new (still have the factory 6 disk cd changer). It is hooked to Polk Pro audio speakers in the front and rear, with the front speakers and 8” JL Audio sub being driven by an 800W Power Acoustik amp professionally mounted in the trunk. The trunk also has two mounted 7” Boss monitors that used to hook under the front passengers seat to a Playstation II. We used to play video games wirelessly and watch them from the trunk during car shows. The speakers in the trunk lid also work and have a blue light when operated with the beat of the music. There is a Gold Pro neon light kit (top of the line real neon bulbs, not led) that works perfectly under all sides of the car and make the car appear to float on blue light (legal in my city). The exterior neon lights and interior LED lights are operated by small factory dip switches on the left side of the dash. The color on the exterior of the car is ALL vinyl and can be removed if desired with a heat gun and some time if it’s not to your taste. I have had absolutely no problems with this car and hate to sell her,but all she does is sit in the garage and collect time and dust, being driven less than 2K miles last year. It needs a good home where someone will love her like I have and enjoy it. The car gets about 19MPG on the highway if you’re gentle on the throttle, otherwise it’s about 15MPG and hell-a-fun. Serious inquires only and no joy rides. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time, as it is available locally as well. Look it over, judge for yourself. It’s one of the fastest cars on the road bar none, but could still fit a family of 4 comfortably (that’s why I got it instead of a 2 door). Remember, there is an original hood, full exhaust and stereo included as well as a full set of matched nearly new tires and wheels. |

Subaru teasing new WRX S4 model ahead of Japanese debut
Fri, 25 Jul 2014The Subaru WRX range is growing just a little bit larger, at least in Japan, with the automaker's teasing announcement of a new version called the S4. Unfortunately, the company is keeping details about its latest all-wheel drive sport sedan a closely guarded secret for the moment.
From what we can glean, it appears that the S4 might be a more luxurious take on the WRX. According to the release, the name stands for the four qualities that Subaru wants the sedan to have: "'Sports performance', 'Safety performance', 'Smart driving' and 'Sophisticated feel.'" As part of this focus, the car comes with the company's EyeSight camera system. Thankfully, we don't have too long to wait to find out what all of the buzz words actually mean because Subaru is unveiling the S4 on August 25 in Japan.
The automaker also launched a teaser website for the S4 that you can cheek out, here, but at the moment it doesn't provide any more details about the new sport sedan. The site just has countdown until the August reveal. There's also no indication yet whether this potentially more premium WRX could make it US shores. Scroll down to read the Subaru's rather concise teaser for the upcoming S4.

Watch Mark Higgins whomp the Isle of Man TT course in a 2015 WRX STI
Fri, 20 Jun 2014Subaru has made another trip to the infamous Isle of Man TT, bringing along its all-new 2015 Subaru WRX STI. The goal? Best the already impressive time set by rally ace Mark Higgins and the 2011 Impreza WRX STI on the same swirling, high-paced ribbon of tarmac. Of course, you already know how that went.
What we didn't know when the story first broke, though, was that Subaru was monitoring data. Specifically, Higgins' data. He was fitted with a monitor that would record his heart rate, breaths, skin temperature and the g forces he was faced with as he lapped the 37-plus-mile road course. While Higgins and Co. were aiming to best their 2011 time (19:56.7), this year's effort also saw a push to beat the time of the sidecar racers.
You can get a recap of the entire event, with plenty of footage and data from Higgins' lap in the exhilarating video below. Take a look.
