Vehicle has 215,526 miles on it with engine replacement at approximately 165,000 miles. The installed motor had 12,000 on it at the time. The exhaust, including the catalytic converter, was replaced in the spring of '14. All four rotors were turned and new pads installed at approximately 212,000. Newly installed serpentine belt. The interior is in good shape, besides some wear and tear that is normal for a 11 year old daily driver.

Although the vehicle looks bad, I have been driving it daily since damaging the body and it still rides very smooth. However, the front left axle has been rattling and needs to be addressed shortly. I cannot recommend driving it on the road until making a few repairs, as the passenger door doesn't fully close and the passenger side rear view mirror was broken off. I still have the passenger rear view mirror and a couple of the panels that came off.

The body was damaged while two-tracking after colliding with some saplings. No large trees were hit. I am not a mechanic or auto body specialist, but it does not seem as if the frame has been damaged in any way. The damage that I can note is as follows: missing front and rear bumpers, back left corner panel dented with trim missing, some damage to the front left corner panel, back right corner panel dented with trim missing, front right corner panel dented with trim missing, front passenger door badly damaged and will not close, missing R side rear view mirror, front passenger window broken out, some damage to the back right door. The rest of the car is in pretty good shape. Please see pictures, and note that the TOPPER IS NOT INCLUDED IN PURCHASE. You make contact me for more pictures of the interior, exterior, engine bay, etc.

While I will be parting this vehicle out if it does not sell whole, I believe that it is restorable in the right hands, and worthy of restoring.

Buyer takes on all shipping costs and understands that this is an as-is purchase. Loaded title in hand as well as release of lien from bank.

2014 Subaru Forester XT

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

Hitting The Mainstream Sweet Spot
The Forester does quite a bit of heavy lifting for Subaru. What was once a plucky little all-wheel-drive utility box has matured into a competitive crossover that accounts for a quarter of the company's total sales in the US. With those numbers continuing to swell even in the third generation's twilight hours, engineers and designers found themselves in the unenviable position of being asked to fix what ain't broke. Rather than reinvent the company's workhorse from the ground up, as we say in our first look at the CUV, Subaru honed the Forester to offer better fuel efficiency, more usable space and a more refined drive.
In doing so, the automaker hopes to toe that delicate line between luring in new devotees to the cult of Pleiades and keeping the brand's longtime fans smiling. While the fourth-generation Forester may have lost some of its trademark pluckiness in the pursuit of a more mainstream existence, there's no denying this is a more sorted vehicle than its predecessors. Make no mistake, the 2014 Forester is keen to carve out a larger chunk of the ever-plumping CUV market for itself, and for the first time in its history, it has the muscle to do so.

Strange iPhone discovered in guy's Subaru sparks internet mystery

Wed, Apr 19 2017

Things can get pretty crazy on the internet, and even the smallest thing can catch people's attention and blow up in an instant. A lot of it is totally bogus or blatant attention seeking, but that's what makes the internet great. Well, that and cat videos. Recently, a story popped up on the internet that is both cool and real. It's the story of a mysterious iPhone, some pro-tier internet detective-ing, and the Takata airbag recall. The story started innocently enough. A guy named Alex Tom took his trusty '09 Subaru Forester into the shop to replace a faulty passenger side airbag under the Takata recall. When he picked the car up, there was a white iPhone 4s sitting on his dashboard. Thing is, the phone wasn't his. The phone was stone dead, but took a charge and booted right up. To complicate matters, it was locked and stuck in airplane mode. When he asked the shop about it, they said they found it behind the dash under the airbag. So now he had a mysterious phone that he couldn't get into to identify. So, like any modern tech-savvy individual, he turned to the internet for help. He posted a picture of the phone on Facebook along with a message asking for help tracking down its owner. What followed was a long, rambling, often hilarious collection of facetious advice, earnest help, photoshops, dumb memes, weird off-topic screeds, and everything else you might expect in a comments thread. Eventually, after getting a name from the phone and enlisting the help of an online dating site, the owner was found and the mystery solved! I'm not going to spoil the ending for you here, because you really need to read the whole saga for yourself. Lets just say that our man Alex had the answer with him all along, and the real treasure was the friends they made along the way.

CCTV footage shows Red Bull trophy heist going down

Fri, Jan 23 2015

Any Formula One team knows the deal: you train, you prepare, you make the best car possible and put it in the hands of the best people you can get. But then out of nowhere another driver crashes into one of yours and your race is over. That's just the way it goes sometimes, but even that didn't prepare Red Bull Racing for the crash that happened at its headquarters last month. That's when some bandits drove a silver Subaru Legacy wagon backwards through the front door of the team's headquarters in Milton Keynes, UK, and made off with a bunch of the trophies displayed in the lobby. Now video footage from a closed-circuit television camera has surfaced, showing the crime go down in a brief twelve-second clip. It was a senseless crime since most of the trophies don't have much intrinsic value, and it's not exactly like they could sell them to someone else. All it accomplished was to damage the team's facility and demoralize the men and women who worked so hard to win those trophies – many of which ended up dumped in a nearby lake.
