2006 Subaru Forester X Wagon 4-door 2.5l on 2040-cars
Seattle, Washington, United States
|
This is an awesome car. I'm the second owner, and I've had it since it had 10,000 miles on it. I bought it in Bozeman, Montana, and drove it out there, so these are mostly highway miles. The car has been faithfully maintained, and hasn't caused any problems for me. I have the records on hand here, and I'll buy the car fax for you if you have any doubts.
Specifics: 2006 Subaru X 4D 4 cylinder engine, 2.5 ltr AWD, 4 speed automatic, ABS AM/FM/WX radio/CD player Air conditioning, power doors & windows, alarm, cruise control Flush mount roof rack Tow package Included with this car is an equally awesome, unobtrusive class 2 trailer hitch (pictured) with two separate ball mounts at 1.5 and 2", respectively, and a pair of Thule 440 roof rack rails (not pictured) with keyed locks. You also get a set of all-season Firestone tires that are less than a year old. There are spare headlamps in the glove box. There is a permanent K&N air filter installed that won't need to be cleaned for another 30,000 miles unless you drive through a sandstorm every day. The only things wrong with this car are that the driver's power door lock servo is out and the rear cup holder is broken. These are both inexpensive fixes. The key and both fobs work perfectly. This car is better than advertised in the snow. Six years of driving in the Gallatin Valley, and the high country in Montana, where it snows in piles and sometimes in June have vetted this car and proven that it is badass. Now that I live in the PNW, I don't drive in the snow anymore, but if you're reading this, I know you do. You cannot go wrong here. This car laughs at snow depths that stop this city in its tracks. Be the one who shows up to work on time wondering what the big deal is. Once your deposit (cash or cashier's check) clears my account, I sign the title to you and then the motoring greatness begins. |

2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek Hybrid [w/video]
Mon, 11 Nov 2013The butler announcing arriving guests to the hybrid party has just called Subaru's name, at long last. The XV Crosstrek wasn't even supposed to come to the US, but the 2014 XV Crosstrek Hybrid endows it with a suit tailored for our regulatory dress code, adding all that weighty battery goodness to the Impreza-turned-compact-crossover.
Subaru didn't want to say why it sent the XV Crosstrek to the hybrid party first, but the original car itself was an opportunistic play for the European market that has worked out surprisingly well over there and over here. In areas represented by the American flag it's doing about 4,000 sales per month and on pace to hit 50,000 units for all of 2013; that's just another happy chapter in Subaru's generally awesome year that sees it outpacing Volkswagen through the end of October, 347,890 units to 342,962.
The XV Crosstrek Hybrid is the opportunistic play for the 25 percent of Subaru buyers that will be looking for a hybrid as their next vehicle, so sayeth Subaru, and for those outside the fold who are determined to include the word "hybrid" in their purchase but also want some extra ride height, space and all-wheel drive.
Six 'shut up and take my money' cars
Tue, 11 Nov 2014Any time you see this iconic moment in pop culture - Shut up and take my money! - posted in response to a new car reveal, rumor for an upcoming model or even lip-service to a vehicle that should exist, you can bet there's some intrinsic good in the idea. Though depending on the person offering up the cash, that good could take the form of extraordinary form, functionality, weight savings, power, handling, etc. You get the idea.
In fact, when I first proposed this list, I reached out to the Autoblog staff to help me brainstorm. Here are some of the ideas they offered up that I ultimately didn't use: Jaguar XE Coupe, Pagani Huayra Roadster, Mercedes-Benz S-Class "parade car" (cabriolet), Morgan 3-Wheeler with Ducati V-twin, Ford Transit Connectamino (pickup), Mercedes CLA63 AMG, Ford Fusion 5.0, BMW i8 Spyder, Lexus RC-F Shooting Brake, Volvo XC90 Polestar. Oh, and things we collectively wanted to stick Dodge's Hellcat in were almost as numerous as models that Fiat Chrysler Automotive currently makes (though none quite so compelling as the Grand Cherokee you see above.)
Ultimately though, while I used a couple of ideas from my colleagues, the list of cars I'd shell out for unquestionably is very personal. Though it isn't complete, what follows is a selection of cars whose very existence would prompt me - or the trust-fund-baby versions of me - to utter without hesitation: "Shut up and take my money."
Subaru gives Aussies BRZ Sports Pack
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Well, it might not be exactly the Subaru BRZ STI that we've all been waiting for, but Australian market shoppers are now going to have the option of adding some STI flavor to their coupe, with this new BRZ S.
Critically, the Sports Pack upgrades included in the S specification do not involve forced induction of any kind for the BRZ's 2.0-liter flat-four mill. Instead, the BRZ S will offer a novel flexible strut tower brace and a coilover suspension to aid its already impressive handling prowess. Visually, the car gets a new aero kit with lowered skirts and a new front and rear splitter, as well as some mean-looking, 17-inch black wheels. Inside, a new gearlever and a STI-branded starter button will call out the S model.
The S package can be ordered on a new BRZ and fitted at the dealer, or added to an existing customer car. When ordered new, the BRZ S adds $7,995 Australian - about $7,275 US including installation - to the price of the six-speed manual car, or $7,195 Australian ($6,547 US) for the six-speed automatic transmission model. That's a pretty fat wedge of cash, but it's worth bearing in mind that Australians generally pay significantly more for new cars than we do here in the States. For instance, the BRZ starts at $37,150 Australian, nearly $34k US. Even accounting for regional equipment differences, that's a lot more than the BRZ's $26,265 as-delivered base MSRP here in America.
