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 readying special-edition BRZ
Fri, 14 Feb 2014Another week coming to a close brings another rumor of a potential hotted-up version of the Subaru everyone wants to turbocharge, the BRZ.
A fresh rumor out of the Car and Driver offices makes the claim that a new, special-edition BRZ model will be offered up within the next few months. Word is that the new model will not get similar upgrades to the recent BRZ tS (seen above) for the Japanese market, meaning we're likely in for a cosmetic update instead of a functional one.
The looks of the tS could still be in the cards, however, meaning swapped-out lip spoiler, wheels and even STI badging might be on the way.

Buy a Toyota GT86 and your wife will hate you
Wed, 14 Nov 2012Marketing can be a very strange business. Convincing a man or woman (or child, really) that they absolutely cannot live without the latest, greatest new bit of technology oftentimes takes a unique approach. In the "online film promoting the Toyota GT86" you'll see below, created by agency Happiness Brussels, men are reverse-psychologied into thinking a new sports coupe will make them more masculine by getting their loved ones to hate them. Or something like that. We think.
In any case, we suggest you watch the video below to see how much fun men can have with a GT86 - or Scion FR-S or Subaru BRZ, presumably - at the expense of their significant others. Fair warning: There's a potential Not Safe For Work moment in the ad: beware of a brief male butt shot about 44 seconds in.
Marketing. Gotta love it. Unless you're married to a man. Or something like that. We think. Whatever, just watch.
