USE & MAINTENANCE HISTORY
This is a 2010 WRX Limited Sedan with 37711 miles on it. It's driving style and pickup are easily comparable to a 335i, except you can do even more in the winter!
I am selling it at such a competitive price because my twin brother has the same car and we're moving to California together, so no need for the extra vehicle.

I always replaced oil on time or before scheduled service time (duh, who wouldn't) and used "super" octane fuel every time for cleaner burning.
It is currently running on synthetic oil just to make things a little easier (visiting Subaru so often is not my cup of tea and plus, synthetic is better!). 
This vehicle was purchased from Subaru in August 2010 and has been owned by an MIT Engineer who really loves his Subaru's reliability and flexibility. You can be sure your car was NOT used as a toy, but instead as a means to make cool trips and memorable adventures in New England.

DAMAGE REPORT --> IN GREAT SHAPE
Accidents: NONE! Even the spare tire is still unused.

Exterior: It has no damage beyond minor scuffs and scratches due to normal wear and tear. That is, both bumpers are a little scuffed, and atop of the car you might notice 4 small scuffs from the roofrack (nothing a wax and buff couldn't clear up). The hood is completely clean. All 4 rims are very clean and one has an unnoticeable scratch along the outside (probably from a curb). Some of the photos may have light in them which may look like a serious dent, however, there are no serious dents and it is merely the curvature of the car. On the passenger side rear door, you'll see a small scratch above the handle. I would be happy to send an interested buyer more descriptive pictures, but you really need to get close to see these minor details.

Interior: There are no rips/tears in the leather seats. The interior has minor scratches on some doors, but all due to normal wear and tear, nothing noticeable. Other than that, the trim work is very, very scratch free and new looking.

UNMODIFIED & DRIVES LIKE NEW
Some Features: I tried my best to include all of the features of this car, but clearly if you're looking here, you're interested in a WRX that is running well w/ all of the amenities.
There are NO DRIVE-TRAIN OR SUSPENSION MODIFICATIONS. This car currently drives like a new WRX. I just (500 miles ago) had the steering belt and all struts / springs replaced under warranty.
The manual transmission still runs perfectly, and does not slip or make noise.

UNDER WARRANTY!
This car IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY with 32K MILES / 3 YEARS remaining, as it was purchased in August of 2010. I believe you can even extend that warranty another 30K (Subaru offers a "Platinum" warranty now that was not offered when purchasing the vehicle).


Upgrades/Work and ~$3000 EXTRAS:
  • Installed an optima yellowtop battery once this battery went down the drain. Optimas are some of the best batteries out there, so I thought I'd mention it.
  • Brakes were replaced 12K miles ago by Subaru
  • Installed an Alpine WXA-407 navigation unit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9ogLzrX9XQif you want to check it out. It really improved the sound quality of the stock speakers. It is compatible with Alpine's rear view reverse camera and comes with a Streetwire Zeronoise 3.5mm (headphone) jack for use with phones / ipods, laptops, etc.
  • Dynamatted interior (fully, under carpet, on roof, in doors, trunk, etc) so that the car doesn't shake and vibrate. It also lessens the amount of road noise and greatly improves speaker sound quality.
  • Premium quality UV protective dark tinted windows on all glass EXCEPT the driver's window and the windshield, as this is dangerous and probably illegal!
  • I'm selling this car with new OEM summer tires as well as the 4X Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25RFT Winter Tires(which have only been used for 1 winter for 3K miles). 
  • Comes with a high quality Thule ski / snowboard rack for fun trips.
Cool Features of the Limited Version
  • HID Headlights that move --> focus out yonder and towards the vehicle at the push of a button. Great for foggy and low visibility situations.
  • Heated, comfy leather seats
  • The extended armrest for a more comfortable experience when driving a manual vehicle
  • All weather floor mats / trunk mat
  • Fog lights
DON'T BUY A MODIFIED CAR. IT WON'T BE UNDER WARRANTY!! SUBARU STOCK ENGINES ARE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO HANDLE THE FORCES FROM THESE AFTERMARKET PARTS AND YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF SPENDING MORE TIME REPAIRING THE CAR THAN ENJOYING IT.

Mazda Turnpike in Japan shut down for racing

Mon, Dec 29 2014

The people behind Motorhead Magazine in Japan clearly have some friends in high places. Not only did they manage to shutdown eight kilometers of the Mazda Turnpike up the Hakone mountain, but they invited some of the country's premiere racers to take a drive up the hill. This wasn't just a Sunday cruise either. Featuring a BMW Z4 from the Super GT series, a classic Ford GT40, two flavors of Nissan GT-R and two takes on the Subaru Impreza WRX STI, these guys came ready to run. When an opportunity to let racecars challenge a curvy mountain road presents itself, you don't squander it. Thankfully, the folks at Motorhead knew that and outfitted the course with a plethora of cameras and high-quality sound equipment to capture the action. The result is nothing short of sublime. Take the video's urging to turn up your speakers for this one, and watch as these racers hit ludicrous speeds in a beautiful place never meant for them.

Subaru recalling 660k vehicles in some states for possible brake line corrosion

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

Subaru is recalling 660,238 vehicles located in 20 US states that use salt on their roads. It's possible that salty water could splash onto the rear brake lines, and it could eventually cause corrosion and potentially perforation, leading to a fluid leak.
The recall covers the 2005-2009 Outback and Legacy, 2008-2011 Impreza, 2008-2014 WRX and STI and 2009-2013 Forester. However, only vehicles currently or formerly registered in the following snowy US states or districts are covered: Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. The company previously recalled the 2005-2009 Legacy and Outback to repair this problem, and now it's added the additional models, plus any of the original cars it missed the first time.
According to the defect notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Subaru found a total of 24 cases of corrosion in US leading up to the recall. There was a single case of actual brake line perforation, but it happened in Switzerland, according to the document. The company believes that it would take seven or more seasons of winter driving on salty roads before any corroding would begin.

Should Subaru stay niche or go mainstream? [w/poll]

Sun, 11 Aug 2013


Out of all the automakers doing business in the US, Subaru is the one that has carved out the most interesting niche for itself in the minds and lifestyles of buyers. Outdoorsy types, dog lovers and active families alike flock to Subaru's rugged nature and all-wheel-drive utility - and they're fiercely loyal, which is probably why Subaru has become a success story.
But Subaru is still a relatively small player in the US market, and with recent profits surging, parent company Fuji Heavy Industries is facing a dilemma: continue on with the successful niche market Subaru has carved out for itself, or attempt to go mainstream and give big players like Nissan and Toyota a run for their money. According to Carscoop, Japan Times and Bloomberg News are reporting that Fuji Heavy is beginning discussions this month to determine which direction Subaru will take.
