for sale is my 2005 atlantic blue pearl Subaru Legacy GT Limited all wheel drive 5 speed manual 2.5L turbo with 167k miles on it. It's currently being used as a daily commuter but it could use some work. It has been a great commuter car for me for the past 40 thousand miles that I have had it. This car is great in the snow. It has a clear title with no red flags on the carfax history(I looked at the carfax when I bought the car). I have decided to get a car with an automatic. The clutch was replaced by the previous owner right before I bought the car. The clutch that the previous owner put in was a performance clutch and is fairly stiff. It is to stiff for my liking but it didn't bother me to much because I was commuting on the highway a lot and didn't use the clutch much. The previous owner claimed to have replaced the turbo at 100k miles with a more reliable 16g cartrige but didn't have a receipt and I have no way to tell if it was actually done by looking at it. The exterior of the car, body and paint is in really good shape. The interior is in great shape too.

Maintenance and new parts: I had 4 new tires installed last fall, 9/2013, and they still look fairly new. 4 new break rotors with new pads installed 9/2012 @ 143k miles, along with break fluid change. Timing belt & water pump service 6/2012 @ 136.9k miles along with an accessory belt replacement and all new coolant. The A/C compressor was replaced in may 2012. Only full synthetic oil used along with high quality oil filters used.

Imperfections: There is one good scratch on the front left bumper. The windshield has a really long crack in it. It has the power heated seat option but the heat on the drivers seat doesn't work and i'm not sure the passenger side does. The plastic power seat adjustment control for the passenger side was broke off, the seat can still be adjusted. It runs very rough when it is cold and will stall when engine is cold especially when it is cold outside. When it warms up it run good and strong. It doesn't have any check engine lights on and it passed emissions when I renewed my registration last year. There is a rattling sound like something is loose when you are coasting, let your foot off the gas. The right rear power window doesn't work. I have a replacement window motor for it, I never use the rear windows so I haven't bothered to pay to have it put in. None of these items stop the car form being used and I have been using it as a daily commuter car for a while. 

I routinely put several hundred miles a week on this car and wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere.

It has the following features/options/parts:
- Power sunroof
- Power windows
- Power door locks with keyless entry
- Power heated side mirrors
- Heated wiper option
- Compass
- Outside temperature, miles per gallon, clock & trip time indicator
- In dash 6cd changer, am/fm radio, & i-pod connector aux (non oem that plays through the cd option) 
- Power heated seats(non working)
- Leather interior
- Cruse control
- Antilock breaks
- HID
- Clear bra
- Spare tire, jack & tow hook
- Subaru rubber floor mats

This car has been very reliable and I'll be happy to deliver the car within 150 miles of northern colorado, may be willing to go further. Otherwise pickup is the responsibility of the winning bidder.  

All sales are final

Full payment required withing 3 days of auction closing unless otherwise arranged.

Subaru recalling 72k EyeSight-equipped sedans and CUVs

Thu, Jun 25 2015

Despite critical acclaim, the Subaru EyeSight system is in a bit of trouble today. Some 72,000 cars and crossovers equipped with the comprehensive active safety suite are being recalled. Affected vehicles include the 2015 and 2016 model year Legacy sedans built from March 10, 2014 to April 16, 2015, Outback crossovers built between February 24, 2014 and April 16, 2015, XV Crosstrek CUVs built from October 16, 2014 to April 15, 2015. Also included are EyeSight-equipped 2016 WRX sedans built after March 23, 2015. The problem rests with the EyeSight system's pre-collision braking system, or perhaps more accurately, the switch that activates the brake lights. According to the bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, should that switch fail, not only will the brake lights not turn on, the automatic braking system won't work either. Subaru is in the process of notifying owners, who will need to report to dealers to have the system reprogrammed. Scroll down for the official notification from NHTSA. Related Video: Report Receipt Date: JUN 12, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V366000 Component(s): EXTERIOR LIGHTING , FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE Potential Number of Units Affected: 72,000 Manufacturer: Subaru of America, Inc. SUMMARY: Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain model year 2015 Legacy vehicles manufactured March 10, 2014, to April 16, 2015, Outback vehicles manufactured February 24, 2014, to April 16, 2015, Impreza vehicles manufactured September 9, 2014, to April 14, 2015, XV Crosstrek vehicles manufactured October 16, 2014, to April 15, 2015, and 2016 WRX vehicles manufactured March 23, 2015, and equipped with the Eyesight Driver Assist System. If the switch that activates the brake lights fails, the automatic pre-collision braking component of the driver assist system will not function. CONSEQUENCE: If the automatic pre-collision braking system does not function as intended, the vehicle will not react to an obstacle in its path, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the driver assist system, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-800-782-2783. Subaru's number for this recall is WQS-54. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Toyota FT-86 Open Concept leaves us feeling flushed

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

When last we checked in on our topless would-be hero, the Toyota FT-86 convertible had been reportedly placed on "indefinite hold." That was back in early October, not long after Toyota had trotted out the rear-wheel-drive canvasback to Scion dealers as a possible future product carrot if they decided not to turn in their franchises. And yet, we're here at the Tokyo Motor Show, where Toyota has taken the time to at least repaint the FT-86 Open Concept in "Flash Red," if not build a whole other car (the original Geneva showcar was white). It's enough to make our heads spin like a teenager on the verge of a breakup. Will they? Won't they?
At this point, we still don't know any more than you do - the last word we heard out of Toyota was not encouraging, although the story was that the program could still be fast-tracked if management had a change of heart. As the car has never been seen before in Japan, perhaps Toyota is merely extending its domestic audience a courtesy view before it lines this showcar in mothballs, or maybe they're still trying to make a decision on its fate and gauging public reaction on the homefront.
Interestingly, in a new story published today, Automotive News quotes Subaru brand boss Yasuyuki Yoshinaga downplaying the likelihood of a production model, saying flatly "We make the car, so if we don't make it, it can't happen." The executive went on to note, "Our engineering department told me that losing the entire roof requires a complete redesign of the structure. It would need a big change." Given that such a car would probably trade in rather small volumes, that sounds like a significant hurtle.
