2007 Subaru WRX STI LIMITED 547/800 URBAN GREY Please watch this youtube video which has a large slideshow of photos! Overview: I am the second owner of this beautiful machine. I purchased this STI Limited from California in 2010 with about 16,000 miles, and shipped to Connecticut in a closed trailer. The previous owner had it as a weekend car; it was his baby. He purchased the Cobb Port for it, and it has always run a stage 1 tune (which apparently makes the air/fuel mixture better). Besides the stage 1 tune the car is bone stock. The previous owner mentioned that had he kept the car he would have done a SPT or Cobb downpipe and an aftermarket intake, but never got around to it. The previous owner did spend around $6,000 on a completely custom and well balanced audio system. Upon purchasing the car I intended to daily drive it, but despite its bolstered heated leather seats, sound system and sunroof, the STI Limited is a raw sports car. So like the previous owner I chose to keep it as a weekend car, and continued to daily my BMW 335. It has always been washed and waxed by hand and is taken on nice weekend drives in the Connecticut countryside spring, summer and fall. In the winter the car is stored in a temperature controlled garage, Stabil put in a full tank of 93, battery tender attached, and tires over pressurized (and rolled around occasionally) so not to get flat spots. Despite their reputation for being great in the snow, this car has never seen snow or salty roads. It has also never been tracked and was always adult driven. I am selling this STI because it has become one of too many toys. I barely have time to drive one weekend car, so now the STI gets neglected for the 911. The STI needs a new owner to baby her. Exterior: The car is completely MINT. It is without a doubt in my mind the cleanest STI Limited out there. It is one of 400 in the Urban Grey color and #547/800 STI Limited models produced. There are a few minor scratches here and there but they are almost unnoticeable without already knowing they are there. Any maintenance done to the car was done either at Danbury Subaru in Danbury, CT or EFI Logics in Bethel CT. EFI Logics is one of the best Subaru performance shops on the east coast. They recently flushed the diff fluid, did an oil change, brake fluid flush, brake pads and more. EFI also recommended I replace the brake rotors with stop tech Kryostop rotors but I never got around to it. The current rotors are not bad, but they are worn unevenly so they wear pads out more quickly. I just replaced the battery in the car as the charge was weak. The car also has brand new Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires wrapped around the silver Enkei wheels unique to the STI Limited. This past fall when I driving the STI I struck a possum that ran into the road. This cracked the original front splitter with the STI badge and lightly damaged the front bumper. The car's bumper was repaired and the splitter replaced by North State Custom in Bedford Hills, NY. The front bumper looks better than it did from the factory. There are absolutely no bad panel gaps, in fact they are better than factory. The front splitter no longer has the STI badge on it but looks just like the factory one. I have all the receipts for any work done to the car, including those from the previous owner. Everything is documented. Interior: The STI's interior, like the exterior, is mint. The console looks very clean with the Pioneer head unit. This car features the Subaru factory boost gauge on the steering column. The interior has always been cleaned with high end products. While I have owned the car I have cleaned and conditioned the leather a few times. No harmful sprays or all purpose cleaners have been used. Warm water and soft rags to wipe down and windex for windows. The car has both summer and winter mats. The drivers side summer mat is torn where it attaches to the single pin that holds it in place (a very bad design if you ask me). All the other mats are perfect. The driver's seat has very light wear on the outside bolster. The rest of the seats look new; the interior still has that new car smell. The trunk and trunk mat are very clean. The trunk mat isn't removable because the JL stealth box was mounted on top of it. The amplifiers are mounted under the trunk floor where the spare tire would have been. All the wiring is invisible; it is truly a stealth audio system. The spare tire is in a tire rack donut bag and can be kept in the car or left at home. The original radio is in the pioneer box and will be included with the car. The Cobb tuning port (box, instructions, etc) will also be included in the sale.
Audio System: The audio system features a pioneer touchscreen head unit which looks simpler and more elegant than stock. The head unit also features bluetooth phone capability (has a mic built in) and a reverse camera mounted in the license plate location. It has upgraded pioneer speakers in all the doors (component in front/coax in rear) and a kicker amplifier to power them. It also has a JL 10w6v2 subwoofer in a stealth box, and a kicker amplifier to power that as well. A note to the buyer: The milage will vary slightly as I do take the car out occasionally. Local Pickup is easier. Buyer pays and arranges shipping if desired. Serious inquires only!!! No joyrides. If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask! Thanks for looking! Best of Luck |

Racey Subaru BRZ spied on New York Auto Show floor [UPDATE]
Wed, Apr 1 2015UPDATE: Subaru had the same BRZ out on the show stand this morning, so we added a full gallery. Turns out the car is called Subaru STI Performance Concept... full info available later this afternoon. Subaru is doing something very interesting with the BRZ at the New York Auto Show. Unfortunately, actual details about it are nonexistent at this point, but a user with the screenname The359 posted these two photos from the floor of the event on the FT86 Club forums, by way of an Instagram page. This BRZ appears to get a pretty thorough makeover with big, L-shaped LED running lights on the edges of the more aggressive front air dam, widened fenders and a rather nicely integrated hood bulge, which suggests the possibility of a more powerful engine underneath. The profile photo provides an even better look at the body kit, and it's practically impossible to miss the massive wing at the back that should keep the coupe sticking to the ground. In all, it bears a striking resemblance to the Subaru BRZ Concept STI that was shown at Los Angeles way back in 2011. It's not currently clear whether this is just a high performance concept to tease us, or the more powerful BRZ that many people are looking for. Regardless, the car definitely piques our interest.

Revisit the charms of the 1978 Subaru Brat
Mon, 27 Jan 2014The Subaru Brat is the automotive equivalent of a teenager with a mullet: weird, a little reckless but brimming with enough self-confidence to make it cool.
The Brat came from Subaru's desire to compete in the burgeoning light pickup market of the late-1970s. To get around the so-called Chicken Tax that added a 25 percent tariff on imported pickup trucks, Subaru threw two seats in the bed, which technically allowed it to be classified it as a passenger car. The result was a great, weird combination of a complete lack of safety, with a low price and lots of driving fun.
In the video below, Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman takes a 1978 Brat through the desert and shows just how much fun a little pickup can be.
Subaru mulling three-row utility, upscale versions of existing models
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Subaru was one of few automakers whose sales actually picked up during the recent recession. But now that auto sales are back on track (and expected to hit pre-recession numbers this year), Subaru is trying to come up with new products to fill voids in its current lineup. Wards Auto had a chance to talk to Subaru's director-product manager Ken Lin, who indicated that the automaker is planning to introduce new models this year that will help it attract new buyers without alienating current ones.
The biggest void, of course, is a competitive three-row crossover, a role the Tribeca does not fill in one a very popular segment. Lin said that while there's no current plan to kill off the Tribeca, Subaru is looking at creating a larger three-row CUV with more interior space. In addition to to something big, Subaru is getting ready to bring its customers more luxury with new touring models, but does not anticipate going toe-to-toe with Mercedes-Benz or BMW.
By the end of this year, Subaru will be introducing a new hybrid model, although we don't yet know on which model it will be based. What we do seem to know is that the car will get its power from a nickel metal hydride battery rather than a more modern lithium-ion pack for the sake of simplicity. Finally, Lin mentioned a new product being brought into the sports car segment, but while the article takes this as a hint toward a possible BRZ Turbo, it could also be a reference to the next generation of the WRX and WRX STI.
