2004 SUBARU FORESTER XT TURBO WITH ONLY 87,303 MILES

•  RUNS GREAT / LOOKS GOOD, 
WE'RE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS SINCE NEW, NO ACCIDENTS, JUST PASSED NY STATE INSPECTION
•  SELLING BECAUSE WE ARE MOVING BACK TO CALIFORNIA AND DO NOT WANT TO SHIP IT WEST 

My wife and I purchased this Subaru new in 2004. The miles are largely highway miles, as we’ve primarily used it to zip in and out of NYC. The car has been maintained by our local area Subaru dealer, Bill Kolb Jr. in Orangeburg NY.

The last service was in January when the 'check engine light' popped on and the code indicated there was an 'evap emissions' malfunction, so we replaced both the gas cap and canister and that seems to be have done the trick. Last fall, we did a full front brake job with new rotors and last summer we installed a new radiator, as the orginal one had developed a tiny pinhole leak.

The car has never been in a traffic accident or disabled in any way, however, there are various cosmetic hiccups including:
-  a dent on the left rear quarter panel, from where I backed into my wife's BMW in the driveway (that made her super happy)
-  the paint is peeling on the rear rubber bumper (see photos)
-  there are quite a few dimples in the hood from acorns falling from an Oak tree above where we park the cars
-  various scratches and dings, etc

Subaru EyeSight: Autoblog Technology of the Year finalist

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

Peering out of the top of the windshield of a growing number of Subaru models, looking like a pair of cyborg eyes on either side of the car's rearview mirror, are twin cameras that make up the visible portion of Subaru's high-tech EyeSight system. For 2015, the stereoscopic camera-based system is available on the Forester, Legacy, Impreza and Outback.
These cameras allow Subaru to equip its vehicles with such safety and convenience features as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning and pre-collision braking that can slow the car automatically if an imminent accident is detected, even bringing the vehicle to a complete stop.
Subaru has offered EyeSight technology on its vehicles in the United States since the 2013 model year. Newly upgraded for 2015, EyeSight's smaller cameras now see in color and are capable of scanning further ahead and over a wider swath, which means an EyeSight-equipped car will now be able to respond more quickly. That means a higher chance of accident avoidance for 2015, something everyone on the road will surely appreciate.

Subaru funds Center For Pet Safety crash testing for dogs [w/video]

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

Crash-testing new vehicles to evaluate their ability to keep humans safe in accidents is nothing new, but thus far there has been little in the way of crash testing for dogs. Subaru, a company that portrays itself as pet friendly, hopes to raise awareness on the issue of pet safety by funding initial crash testing by the nonprofit Center for Pet Safety, Automotive News reports.
Real dogs were not used in the crash tests; three dummy dogs representing a 25-pound terrier, a 45-pound border collie and a 75-pound golden retriever were used. There are a variety of devices for sale that are supposed to restrain dogs from entering the front-seat area and distracting the driver - tethers, cages, nets and crates - but their effectiveness in a crash is unknown.
In Subaru's crash test, performed at a Virginia laboratory that tests child seats on a device that speeds down a track and stops abruptly, the results show that devices such as dog tethers are prone to break in a crash, sending the dog rocketing into whatever is in front of it. Rather alarmingly, the organization reports a 100-percent failure rate. In other words, "None of the harnesses were deemed safe enough to protect both the dog and the humans in the event of an accident." Yikes.

Watch Higgins' mind-blowing Subaru WRX STI Isle of Man record lap in first-person

Fri, 27 Jun 2014

Have you gotten sick of Subaru and the Isle of Man? Good, we'd hope not, because of all the videos we've posted so far, today's is the crown jewel. In-car, around the notoriously treacherous race track, with commentary from David Higgins himself.
It gets better, though. Overlaid with the video is the same biometric data that we showed you last week. The result is a heart-pumping, 22-minute video of the record-breaking sprint around the entirety of the Isle of Man TT circuit at a truly wild pace. Higgins commentary, meanwhile, simply adds to the experience of hurtling across the landscape. Subaru has also put together a second video, highlighting the WRX STI that was used in the lap.
You can view both of those videos, as well as a short press release from Subaru, below. Scroll down and take a look.
