2003 Subaru Baja Silver W/ Grey Interior 56k Miles 4 Door 4 Cylinder on 2040-cars
Brooklyn, New York, United States
|
Have owned this car since late 2004. It has seen me through many rainstorms, floods, snowstorms, and high snow drifts. It is, simply put, a tank. AWD gets through anything.
The car has two major problems: -- It needs a paint job. It is pealing in areas and is most noticeable around the hood. You can see it in the pictures. I did my best to accurately depict it. -- The car has a blown head gasket. It overheats after being driven about a mile. A tow truck or flatbed will be needed upon purchase to pick up the vehicle. Also, the driver's side mirror's plastic casing is cracked. The mirror however works fine. It still operates by the remote control in the front seat. The upholstery is grey, clean with no burn discernible burn marks. Aside from the head gasket the engine works fine. It starts right up and will drive smoothly for a little while. The back of the car has no top. The leather ripped from exposure to the elements long ago. The bed is good condition and the tailgate works fine. I work in the city and I don't drive the car nearly as much as I used to. I simply don't need it, so it doesn't pay for me to fix it. It can still be a great car for someone. I love this car. Its gotten me through a lot. If I ever do buy a new car, I'll be sticking with Subaru. With a little help, I think this would make a perfect first car for a new driver. The car has 56,000 original miles, and is worth about $9,000 in good working condition. I'm generously subtracting $2,000 for the paint and another $2,000 for the engine work, although both should be less than that. Or you need a new mechanic. That being said, I've started this auction at $3,000, so even with paint and the engine work, you're still saving $2,000. I did my best to show the car in full detail in the photos. If you have any questions feel free to ask me. |

Plans for 7-seat Subaru Tribeca replacement becoming clearer
Mon, 11 Nov 2013Subaru is going to have its hands full at the Tokyo Motor Show next week, but while the Cross Sport Design Concept is expected to preview a Tribeca-replacing crossover, this new model could still be at least two years from production. It has already been confirmed that production of the Tribeca will end early next year, but in speaking with Yasuyuki Yoshinaga, the president of Subaru's parent Fuji Heavy Industries, Automotive News is reporting that there will be a lengthy gap between the Tribeca and its eventual replacement.
The next-gen three-row crossover wasn't included in an annual production capacity goal of 500,000 units expected in the US by the end of 2016, so it's likely that we won't see this much-needed CUV until 2017. While the details of this new model aren't known, Yoshinaga told AN that it will be "completely different" from the Tribeca. As we heard back in February, we do expect this seven-passenger crossover to grow in size in order to offer a larger cabin with more third-row space.
Automotive News even mentions that the Tribeca replacement could be based on the existing Subaru Exiga from the Japanese market. That three-row vehicle splits the difference between a minivan and wagon, with swinging doors instead of sliders, and a tall greenhouse.
Subaru investing $400 million for Impreza production in Indiana
Thu, 09 May 2013As a part of a goal to increase its US sales tally up to 500,000 annual units by the end of the decade, Subaru is investing $400 million in its Lafayette, IN assembly plant in order to start building the Impreza in 2016. According to Automotive News, about half of that investment will be for a new paint plant while another big chunk will be used to extend the assembly line to allow for the increased capacity.
Currently, Subaru's Lafayette plant is responsible for building about 200,000 Legacy, Outback and Tribeca models each year (not including around 100,000 Toyota Camry sedans), but Subaru-specific output will be increased to 300,000 units, requiring an additional 900 new hires as well. Although a previous report suggested the Forester and Impreza would be moving Stateside, this AN article only mentions the hatchback and sedan versions of the Impreza being added to Lafayette - and no mention of the closely related XV Crosstrek.
2015 Subaru WRX: Introduction
Tue, 10 Jun 2014"As far as street-legal rally cars go, there's still nothing better than a WRX." I wrote that line following my first drive of the 2015 Subaru WRX late last year - one of the better motoring experiences I had in 2013. Sure, a particularly involving drive route helped, but I don't want to sell the new Subaru short: it's a seriously good car - easily one of the sharpest, best-driving little turbos available today.
When I drove the even hotter 2015 WRX STI in January, it was a similar love-fest. The STI is infused with all of the WRX's greatness, but it's sharper, meaner, and on good roads (and race tracks), the winged wonder is really outstanding. But because of its higher price tag, less forgiving suspension tuning, and only marginal performance increases, I'm convinced that the STI isn't the best WRX for the money. And much as I love it, I just don't think I'd ever buy the STI over its more sedate sister (though I totally understand why others might).
So when it came time to add a new long-term car to the Autoblog fleet, many votes were cast in favor of the WRX. There was a lot of debate about whether or not to get the standard version, or the mightier STI. But at the end of the day, my argument that the basic WRX is the better daily driver - nee, one of the best all-around, all-weather performers money can buy - carried the day.
