1999 Subaru Forester L Wagon 4-door 2.5l Awd Rust Free! Leather Well Maintained on 2040-cars

I have a 99 Subaru Forester L AWD wagon for sale. The car is in good condition with no rust or major body damage. Just the clear coat on the hood is peeling. It drives nice and straight with no funny noises or vibrations and the transmission shifts well. It has a Subaru re-manufactured transmission that was installed in 2006 (there is a metal stamp on the tranny itself). Tires all have good tread with no weather cracking including one almost new tire. 

New parts within the last few months include a radiator and hoses, spark plugs and wires, altenator, drive belts, front cv joints, front brake pads and rotors, knock sensor, oil change, and air filter. Even though the rotors are new they still have a slight vibration and I will remedy that before the new owner take possession. The car recently passed NC state's safety and emissions inspection in July. 

It has power windows and door locks, power mirrors, cold a/c and hot heat, cruise, power steering, abs, dual airbags, and leather interior.   

The cons to this car are as follows: Crack in the windshield, washer fluid motor does not work, speedometer works intermittently, a hole in carpet under driver's floor mat, a rip in the drivers seat leather, a tire mark on the rear leather seat and some substantial oil leaks (3/4 quart a week when driving 250 to 300 miles/week). The head gaskets, thankfully are GOOD! It appears to be leaking from the camshaft seals and the rear main seal. We never had it diagnosed or estimated so don't quote me on the leak locations. It was a car that we purchased with the intent of my wife driving it, but we decided against it once we found the oil leaks.

Overall it is a solid running SUV that has a lot of life left in it and would make a perfect winter or work vehicle. Interior is relatively clean with no foul odors or stains. It comes with the rear cargo mat to keep things tidy.

Please feel free to ask any and ALL questions before submitting an offer or purchasing. Thank you for looking and good luck!

Subaru lifts leg at Super Bowl, goes with Puppy Bowl ads instead

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

There will be many automakers spending millions upon millions of dollars advertising in the Super Bowl next weekend, but Subaru will not be one of them. Instead, the automaker will be catering toward animal - specifically dog - lovers with a set of commercials for the 2014 Subaru Forester that will appear during Puppy Bowl IX on Animal Planet.
The ads all build on Subaru's reputation of being a dog-friendly brand, and its latest "Dog Tested. Dog Approved" campaign will feature four 20-second spots. Of the four, "Tailgate" and "On The Lot" are definitely the most entertaining, while "Let's Talk Financing" and, especially, "Lint Roller" are snoozers.
Scroll down to watch all four spots, and there's also a press release listing other initiatives Subaru is planning to attract dog lovers. If you like dog commercials, you should check out the newest spot from Volkswagen, too.

Subaru suing CA dealership for alleged false customer surveys

Sat, Feb 14 2015

Whenever you buy a new car from a dealer these days or sometimes even go in for service, you can expect to fill out a customer satisfaction survey at some point down the road. The responses are actually quite important to showrooms because automakers require the businesses to keep things at a certain level or face penalties. However, a Subaru dealer allegedly found a way to game that system, at least briefly, and now the Subaru of America has filed a lawsuit in US District Court for breach of contract. South Coast Subaru in Costa Mesa, CA, reportedly falsified 224 customer satisfaction questionnaires in 2014, according to Automotive News. The scheme wasn't that hard to figure out, though. All of the faked surveys were allegedly submitted through the IP address of an Acura showroom managed by the same dealer. Under normal circumstances when someone buys a Subaru, the dealer is supposed to collect the customer's email address and submit it to the automaker. However, South Coast allegedly presented false addresses, and then managers had employees fill the forms out during lunch. Subaru claimed in the suit that by doing this the dealer harmed the company's product reputation and its goodwill among customers. "Defendants prevented Subaru from discovering the actual customer satisfaction level of Subaru retail customers at South Coast Subaru by providing sham customer surveys to [Subaru]," the complaint said, according to Automotive News.

Subaru SVX to be resurrected with hybrid power?

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Salt. Get the salt. A new report out of Australia is claiming that Subaru is working on a new SVX. Yes, seriously.
Now, this is not feasible for a pair of huge reasons. First, the demand for a two-door Subaru, as we've seen with the BRZ, has not been tremendous. Second, the original SVX was a pretty horrible seller. Could the world be ready for a revival, though?
According to an unnamed source that spoke to Motoring.com.au, the reborn SVX will be based on the Viziv 2 Concept that was shown at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, but it will be a considerably more aggressive design, arriving as a low, wide shooting brake. According to the Aussies, the reborn SVX would ride on a new Subaru Global Platform, which will underpin the next-generation Tribeca, because of that platform's support for hybridization.
