I bought this car brand new for basic transportation. I talked my wife into taking a look at the STi, but she didn't care for the racer appearance. The salesman said "We do have a Limited edition in the back, if you want to take a look." I had heard of the Limited, but they were so scarce that I never thought I'd get a shot at one. Obviously the wife and I both loved it, and we bought it on the spot. The salesman almost got into a fight with another one there at the dealership because the other guy claimed to have a customer coming the next day to buy it. My salesman said "Look, these people are here now, they're paying full sticker, it's my sale." And that was how we snagged this baby.

It has been the best car in terms of day to day practicality plus performance, but I need to pull some kayaks and it no longer fits out needs. It has never been raced or wrecked, everything is all original, even the cold air intake is an SPT item. The interior is cherry when you consider the mileage and no computer reprogramming has been done. No suspension mods either, and the muffler is original as well. I had the center differential replaced and the trans disassembled and fluid changed in 2010 at 79K miles, under warranty. Brake fluid was changed in 2011. Slotted rotors got added in 2012 along with FEAL Suspension STi front and rear struts. March of this year I replaced two of the tires because of a single flat. There is good tread on the two older tires, and all are Rotella F106 225/45R17 94W XL tires. There's an extra if you want it, and I have the original factory air intake and wipers for you resto nuts. I replaced the air splitter (it's about parking lot barrier height unfortunately) and repainted the rear spoiler as it was fading, just this month. I've always used synthetic oil, by the way.

Personally I hate auctions with a reserve so high that it becomes a joke, so I will give you the punch line early: it's a dollar! My reserve/price is fair market value based on the NADA guides for this specific car and my knowledge of its rarity. Only 800 units of the STi Limited were made in 2007. Go figure how many are still on the road. If you want a Limited that's been maintained impeccably by an adult and has never seen abuse, then this is the car for you. I have to warn you though, serious inquiry's only. It is for sale locally, so first to pay in full will get it even if it is prior to the auctions end date. As far as pick up or shipping, that's your responsibility. I will make every effort to be there if you send a shipper, but local pickup is preferred.

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.

Fuji Heavy Industries changes name to Subaru Corp. in 2017

Fri, May 13 2016

Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. plans to celebrate its centennial by changing its name to Subaru Corporation on April 1, 2017, in a move that emphasizes the company's automotive business. The change is pending approval at the company's shareholder meeting on June 28. "The purpose of this shift is to further accelerate our efforts to enhance the Subaru brand and achieve even greater growth for Subaru as a distinctive global brand in the automotive and aerospace industries," the company said in a statement. The company forecasts its global vehicle sales will top 1 million for the first time in 2017. Fuji traces its roots to the founding of the Aircraft Research Laboratory, which later became Nakajima Aircraft Co., in 1917. The Fuji Heavy Industries name was launched in 1953, and the core auto business began under the Subaru name in 1958. Though Subaru is a well-known car brand, it is the Japanese name for the Pleiades star cluster, and it serves as a symbol of the six sibling companies that formed Fuji in 1953. It currently plays in a wide range of sectors, including aerospace and industrial products.

2016 Subaru WRX makes IIHS TSP+ fun

Mon, Sep 14 2015

We write about boring, utilitarian compacts being named to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's Top Safety Pick+ list pretty regularly. Today, we've got yet another fun car to add to the tally – the Subaru WRX. Thanks to the inclusion of the company's impressive EyeSight active safety system, the WRX was able to score a "Superior" rating on IIHS' frontal crash prevention test, which is the highest score possible. Vehicles are required to score at least an "Advanced" rating to earn the TSP+ mark. In addition to the active safety system, TSP+ vehicles must also record "Good" ratings across the four basic crash tests Â– front, side, rear, and rollover Â– and a "Good" or "Acceptable" rating the small-overlap crash test. Of course, Subaru is no stranger to IIHS' biggest honor Â– the Legacy and Outback were named Top Safety Pick + vehicles in April 2014. We're still scouring the Internet for the actual crash test video from IIHS. Once we uncover it, we'll update this post. Until then, scroll down for the official press release from Subaru. 2016 Subaru WRX Awarded IIHS' Highest Standard of Safety "2015 TOP SAFETY PICK (TSP) +" ? "EyeSight" achieved the highest possible rating of "Superior" for front crash prevention. ? Seven models have earned 2015 safety awards from IIHS. Tokyo, September 14, 2015 - Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. (FHI), the manufacturer of Subaru automobiles, today announced that the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS; a nonprofit organization supported by auto insurers in the US) has awarded the highest standard of safety, 2015 TOP SAFETY PICK+ (TSP+) along with the highest possible rating of "Superior" for front crash prevention to the 2016 Subaru WRX (US specs.), equipped with Subaru's EyeSight* driver assist technology. By adopting the EyeSight for 2016 model, WRX earned 6 of 6 points for front crash prevention. Including 2016 Subaru WRX, Subaru has seven models that have earned 2015 safety awards from IIHS - six with TOP SAFETY PICK+ and one with TOP SAFETY PICK. The EyeSight was the first system ever to use only stereo camera technology to detect the objects such as vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists. Since its Japanese debut in May 2008, features available on this system have been highly praised; they included pre-collision braking control and all-speed range adaptive cruise control tracking function.
