1999 Forester Stickshift With A Freshly Replaced Engine And Fresh Pa Inspection on 2040-cars
Perkiomenville, Pennsylvania, United States
This Subaru Forester is in great shape. It just got inspected for the PA state safety inspection, so the sticker will not expire until October 2014. This car is ready to drive anywhere you would like. The original engine overheated because of a bad head gasket, common to this year of Subaru. I purchased a very nice engine from a 2000 Subaru with 80K miles on it. My research shows that the newer engines have less head gasket issues than the original engine. The new engine did not need a head gasket but I replaced it anyway to prevent it from needing one in the future. The replacement Felpro head gaskets are better than the original ones installed by Subaru. I had the head gasket replaced professionally and also replaced the timing belt and timing belt tensioner. I wanted to install a fresh engine that I could trust for 200K miles or more. The clutch is new and the whole car is ready to be driven daily for a long time. The stickshift Subarus are desireable. It shifts smoothly and easily. The gear ratio is low to improve performance, which I found worked well in slow moving traffic. The seats are in great shape with no tears. The car has been well taken care of. I included a picture of a tiny dent on the rear wheel arch. The quarter panels are solid and rust free. The brown in the photo is dirt from my driveway. I've driven this car about 100 miles on the new engine and I continue to drive it daily. I've also noticed that the passenger side headlight bracket has been split glued by a previous owner and is no longer glued. I included a picture of this. It never bothered me and isn't noticeable externally. The car is located in Perkiomenville, PA, Zip code 18074. This location is about 45 minutes north of Philadelphia along the turnpike and about 2 hours from Harrisburg, PA. |

CCTV footage shows Red Bull trophy heist going down
Fri, Jan 23 2015Any 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.

Subaru gives Aussies BRZ Sports Pack
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Well, it might not be exactly the Subaru BRZ STI that we've all been waiting for, but Australian market shoppers are now going to have the option of adding some STI flavor to their coupe, with this new BRZ S.
Critically, the Sports Pack upgrades included in the S specification do not involve forced induction of any kind for the BRZ's 2.0-liter flat-four mill. Instead, the BRZ S will offer a novel flexible strut tower brace and a coilover suspension to aid its already impressive handling prowess. Visually, the car gets a new aero kit with lowered skirts and a new front and rear splitter, as well as some mean-looking, 17-inch black wheels. Inside, a new gearlever and a STI-branded starter button will call out the S model.
The S package can be ordered on a new BRZ and fitted at the dealer, or added to an existing customer car. When ordered new, the BRZ S adds $7,995 Australian - about $7,275 US including installation - to the price of the six-speed manual car, or $7,195 Australian ($6,547 US) for the six-speed automatic transmission model. That's a pretty fat wedge of cash, but it's worth bearing in mind that Australians generally pay significantly more for new cars than we do here in the States. For instance, the BRZ starts at $37,150 Australian, nearly $34k US. Even accounting for regional equipment differences, that's a lot more than the BRZ's $26,265 as-delivered base MSRP here in America.
