I bought the car almost 2 years ago planning to keep it for a long time, so I've put in money into it as I was going to drive another 100k miles reliably. I changed wear and tear parts proactively, and put in select STi parts to make it fun to drive. Unfortunately, plans have changed now and I am selling it. My loss is your gain. This car should be very reliable for many miles to come. 

The car has a few STi modifications which give it very good, stable, and precise handling. There is absolutely zero vibration in the steering wheel and the car feels very steady at speed on the highway. The quicker ratio steering rack makes a big difference and the car is very precise. 

Service at 175k miles (when I bought the car):
Timing and Serpentine belts
Water pump
Pulleys
Valve cover gaskets
All oils changed -- Motor, Transmission, Rear Differential.
Spark Plugs
New Clutch and Flywheel
Brand New StopTech Rotors and Pads, OEM replacement.
Replaced Turbo with 45k miles.
Air filter

Since above service, have changed motor oil twice, and most recently today when I took pictures of the car.

Modifications:
STi Full Steering Rack and crossmember with Whiteline bushings
STi suspension, springs and struts
STi Full exhaust
STi Uppipe and Downpipe
Gruppe N Motor, Transmission, and Pitch mounts
SAMCO hoses
Boost Gauge on A-pillar
Hardwired for Valentine 1 radar detector

Cons:
ABS doesn't work, needs rear ABS hub rings to function properly. 
Right front fender has some swipe damage (see pics)
Rear bumper peeling (see pics)

Car is now taken off insurance and not being driven anymore. Last oil change was done right before taking pictures, so no miles have been put on since. Overall, it is a very clean car which will serve the next owner well. It is not perfect however and does have dings and scratches. 

NOTE: car will come with stock 16 inch wheels and all season tires that will need to be replaced soon. In most pictures, the car has my winter 17 inch setup.

Winter set: ASA 17 inch rims with Pirelli Sotto Zero snow tires. Tires used one winter, basically new.

2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek Hybrid finally adds gas-electric option to the brand [w/video]

Thu, 28 Mar 2013

For a company that does a pretty great job of tying its vehicles to the environment - or, better said, to people who like to actually get out into the environment - Subaru hasn't exactly been a leader in green vehicle production. In fact, it's 2013 and the company is finally releasing its first-ever production hybrid, the XV Crosstrek Hybrid. Tom Doll, Subaru's executive vice president, admitted as much at the unveiling today at the New York Auto Show: "We at Subaru were not the first to market with a hybrid, but we sure made sure we did it right."
That may be, but for now the automaker doesn't want to tell us all the details of how right it is. We do know that the powertrain takes Subaru's 2.0-liter boxer engine and adds in a 13.4-horsepower electric motor and continuously variable transmission. All-wheel drive will be, of course, standard, and Subaru promises the XV Crosstrek Hybrid will offer the "same utility and versatility as the gasoline model," including 8.7 inches of ground clearance. The hybrid does weigh 300 pounds more, though, which required a re-engineered chassis.
The motor can move the lifted Impreza in all-electric mode up to 25 miles an hour (distance not specified). Subaru isn't talking precise fuel economy numbers, either, just that it will be the "most fuel-efficient all-wheel-drive crossover in America" and will unsurprisingly have start-stop functionality. We do hear, though, that the hybrid will get around 10-percent better fuel economy than the standard gas-only XV Crosstrek. The most efficient version of that car, the one with the CVT, gets 25 miles per gallon in the city, 33 highway and 28 combined. Whatever this hybrid XV Crosstrek gets, we expect Subaru'll sell a million in Portlandia. For more, scroll down to watch an official video and read the press release.

Autoblog goes on an African safari, Subaru-Style

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

... And Learns To Love The Ostrich
Subaru may be the ostrich of the Japanese auto industry.
When one thinks of a safari, they naturally draw pictures in their mind's eye of wild animals, like lions, elephants and giraffes. I'm no different, and it was with visions of long telephoto lenses over vast runes and dunes that I embarked on a 19-hour plane ride from Phoenix, Arizona to Plettenberg Bay in South Africa, camera gear in tow.

2015 Subaru Legacy, Outback crash their way to IIHS Top Safety Pick+ ratings [w/video]

Wed, 20 Aug 2014

The 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.
