For your consideration is my 2005 Subaru STI, nearly mint and with lots of cool modifications. This vehicle has been featured in the World of Wheels car show in Kansas City, taking first place 2 years in a row. It took 1st place in NOPI, arguably the largest import car show in the world, in the vinyl design category in 2007 and 1st in over a dozen other car shows locally. The car has ALWAYS either been under a Wolf Revolution car cover in a driveway, or in a garage under cover. The car does have 38,400 miles, but has been in my possession since brand new in June 2004, and is on only its 9thoil change (synthetic of course). So that means it’s been driven only an average of about 4K miles a year. That said, here is the description from bumper to bumper: The hood is a custom Kevlar fiber weave having a blue/gold tone (I still have the original hood and is mint) and is lifted by TEIN hood dampers so the hood prop is no longer needed. Due to the speeds the car is capable of, I installed hood pins to assure me that the hood could not come loose and hit the windshield. The underside of the hood has been hand shaped and painted to match the exterior color of the car. There is a blue RFI blow off valve on the inlet of the intercooler, coming from a SPT high air flow intake which replaced the factory intake(still have that and was painted to match the car). The factory turbo dumps into a 4” bell mouth Invidia downpipe. The exhaust is a 3” PIT performance exhaust which sounds incredible (I still have the factory exhaust which has less than7K miles). I did not crack the motor to do performance upgrades but there are fresh platinum spark plugs which were installed about 5K miles ago when the carwas placed on a 4 wheel dyno. The car pulled 293hp at the wheels on 91 octane gas and could be tuned to 310hp at the wheels, if the fuel was leaned out. This is about a 100hp increase from the factory settings. I chose to keep it safe and leave the gas mix richer, resulting in an occasional back fire at full throttle shifts in 1st and 2nd (fans loved the 2-3 flame when it was really getting it). The wheels are the original factory but have been professionally painted to match the cars color scheme. The tires are brand new with less than 1K miles. I also have a summer set of tires with about 7Kmiles and are a bit taller (better ride) and on the silver BBS rims. The interior dash and vents have been hand painted with 10 coats of matching blue paint and 12 coats of clear, making a stunning shine. The DVD player is top of the line Kenwood Excelon DDX 7015, which cost $1800 brand new (still have the factory 6 disk cd changer). It is hooked to Polk Pro audio speakers in the front and rear, with the front speakers and 8” JL Audio sub being driven by an 800W Power Acoustik amp professionally mounted in the trunk. The trunk also has two mounted 7” Boss monitors that used to hook under the front passengers seat to a Playstation II. We used to play video games wirelessly and watch them from the trunk during car shows. The speakers in the trunk lid also work and have a blue light when operated with the beat of the music. There is a Gold Pro neon light kit (top of the line real neon bulbs, not led) that works perfectly under all sides of the car and make the car appear to float on blue light (legal in my city). The exterior neon lights and interior LED lights are operated by small factory dip switches on the left side of the dash. The color on the exterior of the car is ALL vinyl and can be removed if desired with a heat gun and some time if it’s not to your taste. I have had absolutely no problems with this car and hate to sell her,but all she does is sit in the garage and collect time and dust, being driven less than 2K miles last year. It needs a good home where someone will love her like I have and enjoy it. The car gets about 19MPG on the highway if you’re gentle on the throttle, otherwise it’s about 15MPG and hell-a-fun. Serious inquires only and no joy rides. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time, as it is available locally as well. Look it over, judge for yourself. It’s one of the fastest cars on the road bar none, but could still fit a family of 4 comfortably (that’s why I got it instead of a 2 door). Remember, there is an original hood, full exhaust and stereo included as well as a full set of matched nearly new tires and wheels. |

2015 Subaru WRX leaks out ahead of debut [w/video]
Tue, 12 Nov 2013The car you see above could, possibly, be the 2015 Subaru WRX, a car that isn't supposed to reach the public eye until next week's Los Angeles Auto Show. The leaked image has been circulating around the web, along with a brief teaser video of the new sports sedan (which you can see below).
The image, which AutoWeek reports may be (probably) a render, appeared on the Clubrz Facebook page, a Subaru fan group. It does fit somewhat with the teaser image we showed you yesterday, while featuring certain styling cues from the WRX Concept shown at the last New York Auto Show.
Now, we'd advise you take this with an appropriately sized grain of salt. We won't know for certain what the next WRX looks like until we're parked in an uncomfortable chair at the LA Convention Center. Still, take a look up top and let us know if the new WRX - which, we'll point out, has neither gold wheels, a big wing or World Rally Blue paint - fits with what you wanted to see. We've also got a very short teaser of the car that plays on the teaser image posted yesterday, which you can see by scrolling down.
Subaru could have all-electric CUV by 2021
Thu, Aug 11 2016Subaru doesn't exactly have an industry-leading electric vehicle program. It sells the Impreza Sport Hybrid in Japan and the Crosstrek Hybrid in the US. There have been electrified rumors and concept cars, but Subaru has been more content to promote getting out into the environment rather than using your car to help it. But maybe this'll change in 2021. That's when, according to a report in the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun newspaper in Japan, the automaker will introduce an midsize, all-electric AWD CUV in the US. The EV would be based on the Forester or Outback and use a new global platform. As for where the cells, batteries, or motors would come from, there was no mention. The newspaper cited unnamed sources and all that an on-the-record spokesperson would say is that, "We have yet to decide on any specifics at the moment." Or, as Subaru of America's national manager of product communications, Dominick Infante, told AutoblogGreen, "It's a bit early for us to discuss electric vehicles and PHEVs." There's a good reason for Subaru to be considering going electric, and it's the same one that's pushing the entire industry to zero-emission vehicles: tighter emissions regulations. As much as we want to know everything now, it appears that Subaru is taking the same approach to all-electric vehicles as it did with hybrids. At the New York Auto Show in 2013, Subaru's executive vice president Tom Doll said that, "We at Subaru were not the first to market with a hybrid, but we sure made sure we did it right." If it takes the company until 2021 to release an EV, it had better get it right. Related Video:
Subaru to drop industrial products, focus on making cars
Mon, Oct 2 2017Subaru, the company formerly known as Fuji Heavy Industries, said Monday it is ceasing production of its industrial products after more than 60 years in order to focus on its core automotive business. The change was effective Sept. 30. "By concentrating management resources on Subaru's core automotive business, the company will further reinforce its business structure in the aim of substantially enhancing the Subaru brand and achieving even greater sustainable growth," the company said in a statement. The move appears to mark the culmination of a steady retrenchment from its industrial business. Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. last year announced it was changing its name to Subaru Corp. in order to strengthen the brand and focus on its core automotive and aerospace business. It also moved to integrate its Industrial Products Company within Subaru's automotive business effective Oct. 1, 2016. Subaru is a Japanese name for the Pleiades star cluster, and it symbolizes the six companies that merged to form Fuji Heavy Industries in 1953. Subaru's aerospace division is a contractor for the Japan Defense Agency. The automaker's industrial products business began in 1951 when its former Omiya Fuji Industries Co. Ltd. began production of the 540 cc M6 engine. Subaru says its Industrial Products Co. Ltd. affiliate will continue to handle after-sales service of Subaru-built generators, pumps and engines used in construction, agriculture and industrial equipment. The company also says it will cease manufacturing engines for installation in other vehicles as supply contracts expire. Meanwhile, Subaru is busy reorganizing its plant in Lafayette, Ind., to begin production of the Ascent, a three-row, eight-passenger crossover based on its Viziv-7 concept that debuted late last year.
