For sale is my 2011 Black WRX Limited Hatch.

This car has a ton of upgrades, so please read the entire listing.

Still under factory warranty until 7/2014 (you can buy the extended warranty anytime from now til the expiration).

For starters, it is the top of the line WRX Limited w/Nav trim. That gives you a sunroof, fog lights leather interior, navigation and trip computer.

The Subaru dealership in Brooklyn, NY installed a Cobb downpipe and flashed the ECU to Stage 2 giving this car around 310HP vs the factory 265. It is extremely noticeable. If you are a good driver, you can pull 4.3 second 0-60 in this car all day. (I have the Cobb Accessport which will be included in the sale, this gives you the ability to flash back to stock or see 0-60 times, MPG and other data. There is also a SPT Catback exhaust which is loud, but not too loud (street legal in all 50 states). The Subaru dealer installed the upgrades, so he said there should be no problem with warranty claims should they arise.

Subaru short shifter was installed as well as the STi 5 Speed leather trimmed shift knob .

I also upgraded the shift boot, e-brake boot and center console to genuine leather, matching the interior with same color red stitching. It really changes the look of the interior.

I installed Hawk Performance Ceramic Brake pads a few thousand miles ago.

Perrin heat blanket which keeps heat localized to the downpipe was installed and works wonders keeping heat out of the engine bay.

Valentine 1 radar detector has been hard wired with concealed display and will be included in the sale. For you to buy this would cost around $750 installed.

I added in the factory media module which did not come with the car. This gives you iPod/iPhone support which works with factory steering control so you can keep the device charging in the center console and both hands on the wheel! Also I enabled DVD playback while the car is driving (for passenger use only!).

Under seat Subaru sub-woofer was installed for that little bit of extra bass.

Car has 30% tinted windows all around (except windshield).

Factory rubber floor mats and original carpeted mats (never used) included.

Also including taillight overlays in case you want your taillights to look red instead of the standard clear. These are precision cut and adhesive backed for easy application.

Overall this car is near mint with only a few scratches here and there. A gas attendant once hit the gas door with the pump and caused 2 tiny dents on the fuel door (felt that should be mentioned, but not really noticeable and very easy to replace). The passenger's door trim on the inside is a bit scratched up as you can see in the photo. The wheels have a little bit of curb rash, again, I have photographed this as well.

I never tracked the car and did my oil changes every 3500 miles instead of the factory recommended 7500. Only used Premium Synthetic oil.

The car drives very fast, but is easy to handle and control due to the 4 wheel drive.

If you have a family, but also enjoy driving, this car is perfect.

This is the most complete ready to drive and enjoy WRX you'll ever find!

Toyota GT86 convertible on 'indefinite hold'

Sat, 05 Oct 2013

Bad news, sportscar fans. According to a new report from What Car?, Toyota has cancelled plans to produce a GT86 convertible, a model based on the FT-86 Open Concept that debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. In truth, Toyota never actually confirmed it would produce the budget-friendly droptop in the first place, but rumors have been flying since last year and Toyota reportedly showed its embattled Scion dealers a FR-S version of the convertible in August. Presumably, this means that a lidless variant of the Subaru BRZ is not in the cards, either.
The reason for the move is unknown, though What Car? reports "one possible cause is weight; Toyota did say that further work would be required on rigidity before the convertible could be launched, and that could have added extra bulk that conflict with the regular GT86's ethos of light weight and agile handling." It doesn't look like that work will happen anytime soon, as "sources now say that the car has now been delayed indefinitely, with no place in Toyota's product plan in either 2014 or 2015." Still holding out hope? What Car? says the project could be "fast-tracked" if management decides it wants to reboot the program down the road.

We're going to drive Subarus through Patagonia

Mon, Feb 8 2016

Later this month, Chris McGraw and I are going on an adventure. We're heading to South America with Subaru to drive cars through the wilderness, including the gorgeous landscape of Patagonia. It'll sort of be like that Top Gear episode, just without, you know, all the bad stuff (we hope). Since this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we're doing a huge blowout of coverage, and we want to bring you along for the ride. From February 16-21, we'll be posting video updates and a ton of social media coverage, so be sure to watch the Autoblog site as well as our YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter feeds for all of the latest sights and sounds from our amazing trip. Of course, we'll have a big feature story wrapping the whole experience up, after we get back and shake off some of the jet lag. We're stoked, and we hope you're just as excited to virtually come along for the ride. Stay tuned.

Subaru WRX STI Type RA NBR Special is nearly as fast as a Porsche 918 Spyder at the Nurburgring

Fri, Jul 21 2017

Subaru now claims to have the fastest sedan to circle the Nurburgring. Its (deep breath) WRX STI Type RA NBR Special finished a lap of the famed German racetrack in an incredibly fast 6:57.5. That's just half a second behind the Porsche 918 Spyder hypercar. Of course, this WRX STI is a specially-built racecar, a rather distant cousin of the WRX STI Type RA production car that takes its name from this race car. The Type RA NBR Special is an upgraded version of the car Subaru took to the Isle of Man time trial last year, where it broke Subaru's old record. The car was built by Prodrive, and it features a 2.0-liter turbocharged flat-four made for rally use. It now makes over 600 horsepower at 8,500 rpm, which is 50 more than it made last year. The aerodynamic aids have been updated, and they provide 650 pounds of downforce at the car's top speed. The car still has the power-adjustable rear wing from last year. At the press of a button, the driver can change the angle of the rear wing to reduce drag and increase speed on straights. Supporting the power and aerodynamic upgrades are 9-inch wide slick tires at each corner, and a rally-spec sequential transmission that can shift gears in 20 to 25 milliseconds. Related Video:
