US $3,200.00

Clarksville, Tennessee, United States

Black w/ gray interior, 5-spd manual, moonroof, factory 6-CD changer, heated seats, clean, non-smoker, 113K mi. 2.5L boxer engine has had timing belt replaced with most recent full-service and head gasket job around 100K mi. Runs smooth, does not burn oil and engine in great shape! Due to previous location in Ohio, front-end control arm factory recall done with replaced sub-frame due to rust on the undercarriage. Tires in good shape, and only body rust is very small corner on rear driver's side fender. 

The good:  LOVED driving this car, and on top it it a great car in great shape.  
The bad:  Recently the driver-side rear wheel bearing went bad - should have cost $400 or so to replace.  However, after having my local Subaru dealership plus a trusted reputable local auto repair shop here inspect it, many parts would have to be replaced due to the corrosion.  They also showed me other places underneath that would eventually have to be replaced as a result of the rust.  The bill had climbed to over $1000 to just fix that problem, so I decided to bail.  

I am selling the car "AS IS" with no warranty - I know there are some mechanics out there that can either fix this cheaper and work on anything else that needs to be done, or one could easily part it out.  Shipping/pick-up is up to you - although engine is great, I wouldn't plan on driving her far at all (if any) with the bad wheel bearing.  Any questions please ask prior to bidding.  Thanks for looking!

Subaru teasing STI surprise for NYC show?

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

Subaru is no stranger to the Special Edition car, least of all where its vaunted WRX and STI are concerned. From Spec C to Prodrive to 22B, more than a handful of STI's around the world have been released as limited-run editions, often with stirring results. So, while we were more than a little bit surprised to see that big-wing crop up on the Subaru Twitter page today, we can't say as though its not true to the brand's history.
However, while most of the interesting WRX STI variants have been offered to Europe and Japan only, whatever is wearing that carbon-fiber-lipped wing is set to debut at the New York Auto Show this week.
We don't have a clue as to the precise nature of the car in front of that wing, save to say that it's likely based on the STI. We can guess, however that the extra vertical supports and the use of carbon fiber indicate a higher-performance version than currently exists. Anything from a racing application to some new goodies for the aftermarket are in the realm of possibility.

Revisit the charms of the 1978 Subaru Brat

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

The 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 BRZ tS makes its brief video debut

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Ever since Subaru released the BRZ, fans have been eagerly anticipating the arrival of the STI version. But despite the recent release of the tS package, the brand faithful will have to wait a little longer, because the tS stops short of the full STI treatment. But at least it looks the part.
Though the BRZ tS doesn't encompass any major engine mods to speak of, it does benefit from a number of enhancements: a new driveshaft, aero kit, Brembo brakes, Recaro buckets and more. Which may be more than enough for some, but to tip the scales of disappointment, Subaru will only make 500 such examples, and they'll only be available in Japan. So chances are you won't be getting your hands on one, but at least you can admire it from this brief video clip below. It's not much to go on, but that seems about par for the proverbial course.
