103xxx, low miles for the year. Adult Driven, Daily Driver, Very Dependable.
This will be a detailed and accurate description of the vehicle for sale.
Mostly stock, some minor modifications.
Recent work/maintenance performed in the last 5k miles :
Timing Belt service, tensioners replaced. All new spark plugs, oil changed with Mobil 1 full synthetic. Rebuilt transmission - $1900. As a lot of Subaru enthusiasts know, this year model was known to have some transmission issues when it reached higher miles, but this will not be a worry for the next owner. Shortly after i bought the car it began making slight noises that seemed to be a throwout bearing, had it looked at by a trusted local transmission shop and ended up needing to be rebuilt with new bearings. Clearly fresh gear oil added at this time as well. This vehicle shifts smoothly and precisely. A brand new Exedy OEM clutch was installed at this time, so no worries there either. Receipts available, along with contact numbers for any of the shops that performed the work.
Performance Modifications :
Tastefully modified. Bought completely stock. I knew i wanted it to be a little quicker, but I didnt want it to be loud or look conspicuous in any way. What I ended up doing was only having a catless uppipe and downpipe installed instead of a full turbo back exhaust. The uppipe was a catless sti uppipe with the stock heatshield so i didnt need to wrap it, the downpipe, however, was wrapped with titanium heatshield wrap and since it wasnt a bellmouth it fit perfectly with the stock heatshield. For looks I bolted on an sti axleback exhaust. Not loud at all. My tuner remarked it is the quietest wagon he'd ever tuned. Ok, on to the tune : with the necessary upgrades to the exhaust performed, a DeatschWerks fuel pump was installed, along with a Grimmspeed manual boost controller. Professionally Street Tuned by Jason Story (UnknownTuning@ Gmail.com). I asked him to do a smooth, moderate, reliable tune for daily driving. The car put down 225whp and 235wtq which is around 275hp and 285 ft/ lbs of torque at the crank. What I ended up with is a quiet, reliable, daily driver/sleeper.
Exterior :
Platinum Silver Metallic in color. A couple minor dents as you would expect to find on a 11-12 year old car. I have captured all the noticeable ones in the pictures, the main blemish being on the driver rear quarter. I had this quoted with a paintless dent repair service for $200. It never really bothered me so I was waiting to get it done. I will factor this into the price. New windshield wiper blades and fog light bulbs. The paint is still smooth and shines like new when clean. A previous owner must have done some light towing as there are some marks on the rear bumper that could be repaired. Overall the car looks great, with only minor issues. Wheels have no curb rash. Tires have abt 25% tread should last another 5-10k.
Interior :
The interior of this car is nearly flawless. I shopped around for months before settling on the car, it was in great mechanical shape, but what sold me, though hard to admit, was the interior. The seats are practically like new, with no holes, tears, or even deformed foam on the drivers seat. No stains or sun damage anywhere in the car, and no burns because clearly it was never smoked in. Even the headliner is flawless, showing no signs of drooping or separation from the seams. There is a small scratch on the glovebox and a slight puncture on the passenger door both from my dachsunds nails. He rides in the other Subie now you can see it in the background of one of my pics, my wifes 2001 Legacy GT Wagon. So we are Subaru lovers you see!
With all of the work and general maintenance, performed, this is sure to be a reliable, and fun car. However, I need an automatic due to relocation, so it has to go. This car is tight, and ready to go for a long time. Receipts for all work done available. Kelly Blue Book has the car listed at 8,000 in good condition. Considering maintenance performed, along with the good, the bad, and the ugly, I'm asking :
$8750.00
Thanks for looking! Cash only, No Lowballers, No Joyrides. More detailed pictures available on request

2015 Subaru Legacy, Outback crash their way to IIHS Top Safety Pick+ ratings [w/video]
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The Subaru Legacy and Outback are the latest vehicles to be awarded the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's most prestigious safety title, Top Safety Pick+.
As we've explained many times before, this only applies vehicles that can score an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating on the five IIHS crash tests and earn at least a "Basic" rating for crash prevention systems.
In the Legacy's case, it totally aced IIHS's testing, earning "Good" scores on the small overlap, front moderate overlap, side impact, roof crush and rear impact tests, while also bringing home the top "Superior" rating for its optional EyeSight system.
Subaru WRX STI gets all gymkhana slidey in new European ad
Fri, 18 Jul 2014A good partner makes sacrifices for a significant other. They aren't always fun, but sometimes chores have to be done. Subaru's European ad for its new WRX STI clearly understands that dynamic, as it shows what to what lengths a guy is willing to go in order to get his lady some bread in time for breakfast. Of course, running errands in a turbocharged, all-wheel-drive sports sedan down picturesque roads is hardly drudgery.
The wordless ad for the WRX STI says everything you could ever want to know about the winged blue Subaru. It expertly mixes some fantastic gravel rally footage with just a bit of inspiration from Ken Block's Gymkhana videos, as well. The automaker makes the right choice of actually letting the audience hear the growly exhaust and squealing tires over the music, too.
If this was your daily route to the bakery, you'd probably be prepared for a round of the World Rally Championship within a couple of months. Scroll down to watch the Subaru ad about a very polite WRX STI owner making sure breakfast is on the table.
Mark Higgins sets new Isle of Man record in Subaru STI
Wed, 04 Jun 2014Subaru has done it again, setting a new four-wheel lap record around the 37.75-mile TT Mountain Course at the Isle of Man. Mark Higgins in a 2015 WRX STI rocketed through the country roads at an average speed of 116.40 miles per hour to circle the track in 19 minutes, 26 seconds, thereby beating his previous record of 19 minutes 56.7 seconds from 2011 in an STI.
According to Subaru, speeds during the lap ranged from as little as 30 mph to over 160 mph. The STI was mostly stock with the only major mechanical change being different springs and dampers to handle the course's famous bumps at such sustained high speeds. For safety, it also had a rollcage, racing harness, and fire suppression system.
"It was quite a lap we did today and I am really happy to have another record in the bank. The chassis of the new car is so much better it really allowed me to pick up time in each sector in the more technical parts of the course," said Higgins about the run in the Subaru.
