Silver Subaru Impreza WRX Premium 5 speed manual with 75k miles. 

Well taken care of and regularly maintained (even to the point of exclusively using 93 octane gas).  I’ve never made any engine or engine-related modifications to this car, but did make a few subtle upgrades (like remote start, tints, winter rims/tires, etc.)

Interior is exceptionally clean - I’m a bit of a clean freak, so the way it looks now is exactly how it has been the last 6 yrs.  I’ve never had a pet inside or have had anyone smoke inside.  Premium package added heated seats, heated side mirrors, front windshield wiper defrost, and premium sound.

Exterior is in good condition, there is a fair amount of paint wear on the bottom piece of plastic molding, and the rims do have dings in them.  No major dents or scratches however.

This has been by far my favorite all-around car (the turbo engine has tons of pep – it’s a blast to drive).  And with the winter tires, the best winter car I can imagine.  Despite attempts, I’ve never gotten stuck, and have many times plowed snow going up long driveways.  I’ve watched SUVs get stuck in areas I just drove through.

The summer tires are near the end of their life – they should last through the summer, but I wanted to let you choose which brand/category of tire you wanted, instead of sticking you with the cheapest off-brand tire.  I am including the winter tires and rims (they’re steel rims that I completely redid (sandblast, repaint) last year with Plasti Dip – sort of rubberized protective layer).  Winter tires are brand new, I only drove a few thousand miles on them last winter.

Sole reason for selling is because I’m finally in a position to buy an STI.

 

As for price, I want to be as fair as possible.   I love this car and hope you do to.  Below is a list of the upgrades I’ve made.  Price I paid is in parenthesis, and what I hope is a very fair depreciated value is next to it.

UpgradeCost Value Now
Winter rims($300.00)$100.00
Winter tires($500.00)$250.00
Remote start($400.00)$50.00
Xenon high beams($200.00)$25.00
Roof rack cross bars($180.00)$25.00
Tinted windows($150.00)$25.00
Rally Armor mud flaps($150.00)$25.00
Winter floor mats($50.00)$20.00

I hope you find these extras helpful.  The total depreciated value of them is $520.

The KBB price for this car in “very good” condition is $16,367.  While I think it in “very good” condition, I’ll use the “good” condition price as a way of being extra fair.  “Good” condition price is $15,867.

KBB “good” condition price + depreciated value of extras = $16,387.

 

I’m more than happy to tell you all about my car, just give me a ring: 716-983-6707.  After work hours is best, but just leave a voicemail if I don’t pick up.

Subaru Forester, Legacy and Outback earn IIHS Top Safety Pick+ ratings

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety announced its more rigorous standards for the Top Safety Pick+ crash test rating back in September, and has recently called out some new models that have attained this highest rating. Last year, the TSP+ category was created for vehicles passing the then-new small overlap crash test; this year the top award has been amended to include crash prevention technology.
Thanks to its EyeSight technology, the Subaru Legacy, Outback and Forester are among just 22 vehicles to have been named a 2014 TSP+ by the IIHS. Without this technology, all three vehicles - and the Impreza and XV Crosstrek - were still named a Top Safety Pick (without the +).
To test the crash prevention technology, the IIHS uses two tests (one at 12 miles per hour and one at 25 mph) to see how well the systems do to lessen the severity of an impact. or prevent an impact altogether. Vehicles are then given a rating from Superior (best), Advanced or Basic, and cars that do not offer forward collision warning or auto braking are not given a rating in this category. To be named a TSP+, a car must achieve at least a Basic score for crash prevention, but all three Subaru models earned a perfect score to receive a Superior rating.

Next Subaru WRX and STI to go sedan only; reveal headed for LA

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

After a serious bit of teasing at the 2013 New York Auto Show, Subaru might be finally preparing to pull the sheets off of the production versions of the new WRX and STI. The venue, according to Automotive News, will be the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show in November. Besides that tasty bit of info, AN has a number of other interesting ideas about the 2015 WRX.
If you've been a fan of the five-door bodystyle, don't read this - the next WRX and STI will reportedly go four-door only. We've already seen the latter's whopping great wing, a tradition we're happy to see soldering on for next-gen car. According to the AN report, power figures to be around 265 horsepower from a 2.5-liter, turbocharged, flat-four engine.
Los Angeles is still quite far off, so expect to hear more rumblings about a production WRX or STI in the coming weeks. Take a look above for our most recent batch of spy photos, and then hop down below for some images of the stunning WRX Concept that was shown at New York.

Auto Show Notebook: Legendary Continental name inspired Lincoln's designers

Thu, Apr 2 2015

What's in a name? A lot for the Continental concept, and it gave Lincoln designers a sense of purpose as they styled the brand's upcoming flagship sedan. "The moment that we told them, it was amazing," Lincoln president Kumar Galhotra said. "They totally got it." "It" is cutting-edge technology wrapped in stately, large-sedan design. It's a nod to Lincoln's storied past, but a signpost for where the brand is heading. Though the Continental name dates to the late 1930s, Lincoln designers avoided making the concept overtly retro. "You can't let it pull yourself back too far in history, but you've got to design a car that lives up to the name," Galhotra said. Speaking to Autoblog on the floor of the New York Auto Show where the Continental formally debuted Wednesday, the Lincoln president reiterated that the car is on track to launch in 2016. It will compete against the Audi A6, Lexus GS, BMW 5 Series and other large luxury sedans. After its debut, the concept in New York will fly to China – another critical market for Lincoln – for display there. It will be replaced in New York by a prototype without an interior. The Continental is the latest high profile play by Lincoln to raise its image with consumers, who have either ignored or forgotten about it amid steep competition in the luxury sector from German and Japanese brands and a potentially resilient Cadillac. Lincoln sales are essentially flat compared with 2014 through the first quarter of this year, with total volume of 21,478 units. The middling start to 2015 comes on the heels of nearly 16-percent sales growth last year spurred by the launch of the MKC and the prominent signing of Matthew McConaughey to star in Lincoln advertisements. Other News, Notes & Quotes Speaking of names, Chevrolet did its homework before deciding to proceed with "Malibu" for its new generation of midsize cars. "We went out and researched it," said Alan Batey, president of General Motors North America. "People actually like the name 'Malibu,'" he said. Admittedly, the current Malibu has struggled in the marketplace against entrenched competitors, Batey said, but he's optimistic its awareness and historical value are assets to the dramatically redesigned sedan."The name's strong," he said. Meanwhile, in other Chevy news, the brand kicked off a new marketing campaign, "Real People, Not Actors" Wednesday. It will show consumers interacting with Chevys and their spontaneous reactions to the vehicles.
