1999 Subaru Forester L Wagon 4-door 2.5l Awd Rust Free! Leather Well Maintained on 2040-cars
Fayetteville, North Carolina, United States
|
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! |

Porsche, Jaguar continue dominance in 2015 JD Power APEAL study
Wed, Jul 22 2015The top of JD Power's 2015 APEAL Study has not changed much in the last year. Porsche remains No. 1 with Jaguar nipping at its heels, although both premium brands saw their overall score fall compared to 2014. For those that need a refresher, the APEAL Study looks at how "gratifying" a vehicle is to own and drive, rating cars and brands on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average for 2015 has increased from 794 to 798, while the total number of automakers that finished above the curve increased from 16 to 20. While Porsche and Jaguar finished at the top, their scores dropped eight and seven points, respectively, to 874 and 855. The top "non-premium" brand was Mini, which scored an impressive 825, up from 795. If the BMW-owned British marque is still a bit too premium for your tastes, last year's non-premium winner, Hyundai, did climb five points and is this year's runner up. At the opposite end of the scale, Smart sits at the very bottom of the rankings, with a score of 683 (it didn't appear on the 2014 rankings). Fiat also dropped, from fourth worst in 2014 to second worst in 2015, despite the 500 being named most appealing city car. Subaru made an impressive climb, from third worst to seventh, falling just 10 points shy of the industry average and two points south of the non-premium average. In the individual vehicle segments, eight brands earned multiple awards, with Ford, Chevrolet, and Porsche earning three apiece. Surprise segment victories included the new Ford Expedition, which beat out Chevy's popular Suburban. The Infiniti QX80 bested the likes of the Cadillac Escalade and Range Rover for best large luxury SUV, and the Dodge Challenger beat its muscle car rivals from Ford and Chevy. Most of the victories, though, were quite predictable. The Mazda6 and CX-5 took wins for the midsize sedan and compact SUV categories respectively, while the Volkswagen Golf captured the compact car win. The Ford F-150 won the large pickup category, while the Porsche Cayman was named most appealing compact premium sporty car.

Climb to the Clouds returning thanks to Subaru title sponsorship [w/video]
Wed, 31 Jul 2013The Mt. Washington Hillclimb, otherwise known as the Climb to the Clouds, hasn't been done since 2011. That year, Subaru Rally Team USA driver David Higgins set a new record for the event first held in 1904, running the 7.6-mile vertiginous course in 6:11.54. The race will be return in 2014 with the help of that very carmaker, Subaru of America having stepped in to the title sponsor role for what will be the Subaru Mt. Washington Hillclimb.
Taking place from June 26-29, 75 modern and vintage cars will spend three days racing up the 6,288-foot-high mountain. It's not as long nor as high as Pikes Peak, but it does have something that the Colorado competition doesn't: gravel; about 13 percent of the Mt. Washington Carriage Road still hasn't been paved.
If you want to know what a record-breaking run up the northeast's highest peak looks like, check out Higgins behind the wheel in the video below.
This Irishman really likes the Toyota GT86
Sun, 10 Feb 2013Okay, okay - by this point in time just liking the Toyota GT86 (Scion FR-S, Subaru BRZ, what have you) doesn't make you special. Even if you're a sort of funny sounding, funny looking Irishman, who probably isn't the most seasoned car reviewer ever, digging the GT86 is not news.
However, if, when you choose to publish your ten-minute-long review, you include exclamatory phrases about your own pubic hair, Ozzy Osborne's drug habit and "gentleman vegetable stuff," well sir, then you'll have our attention.
Don't give up on this video, available down below, after the first couple of minutes, we implore you. The silver-tongued Irishman doesn't really get warmed up until four minutes in, or so. Believe us, it's worth the wait.
