2008 Subaru Impreza Wrx Wagon 4-door 2.5l Hatchback on 2040-cars
Terre Haute, Indiana, United States
|
Up for sale is my 2008 WRX hatchback. 87,300 miles and counting. Stage 1 Torqued Performance tune since I
bought it when it had 30k miles on it. The car is primarily my daily driver and
has never been autocrossed, rallied, road raced, pulled, shifted hard, or even
redlined. Other than when I got the car
tuned on a Torqued Performance tune, it has been babied. I use to drive to work, visit my girlfriend,
and cart my bicycles around, and that’s about it. That being said, the car does have an
extensive list of modifications, all of which were done by me personally and a
very good friend and trusted mechanic, so everything has been done
correctly. Most of the mods, however,
are NOT power mods. The only and very
few engine-related mods were done while servicing something else that made whatever
part easy to replace, and the tune has been adjusted for the engine-related
mods. Most of the work went into
bettering the interior, chassis, suspension, and making the car nicer rather
than faster. Car has $7,800 worth of
aftermarket parts. THE BAD.
Hillstart-assist and traction control don’t work. The lights came on two years ago and the car
works perfectly other than those lights being on. ABS still works, but no traction control and
hillstart-assist. To fix this might be
as simple as plugging in a wire or something, but I just didn’t want to mess
with it as it doesn’t affect the function and performance of a car. Airbag light recently came on for a bad
driver’s airbag, which I had replaced with a new one. That code went away, but the airbag light is
still on. I did an STI center console swap and STI front seat swap. Wheels and tires came off a 0 mile 2012 WRX and
have 1.5 summers of easy, oldman driving on them. Torqued Performance tune/Cobb Accessport
comes with the car. Tune is solid and
has been adjusted for the composite TGV deletes so that there are no CELs. Acceleration is buttery smooth. Nothing like the Cobb OTS maps or the OEM
map. Rotella T6 full synthetic oil
changed every 3k miles on the dot by me personally. Only Subaru OEM oil filters used. Full sound deadening on both inside and
outside door skins on all four doors and the hatch lid and floor. HID low beams from The Retrofit Source, 4300K
pure white. None of the weird blue color
you see with other HIDs. LED interior
lights, license plate bulbs, and LED switchback turn signals. Full list of mods is included. The car will be sold as it sits. No parts will be taken off to decrease the
value. I am getting out of the Subaru
game entirely, so I don’t want to mess with parting it out. I am selling the car simply because it’s time
to move on. Nothing more, nothing less. Never smoked in and never had any animals in it. Pricing: $15,000.
Cash or cashier’s check. If using
cashier’s check, then the car and title will not be handed over until my bank
has cleared the funds. NO payment plans. NO
trades. NO lowballs. Reasonable offers will be considered. The car accelerates, runs, stops, and corners
perfectly and without defect. Test
drives for serious buyers only. NO test
drives without me present in the car. NO
hard accelerating, braking, shifting, etc, during a test drive. If you test drive the car, know that it is
still my car and will be driven lightly.
NO joyrides. NO joyrides. NO joyrides.
Buyer will be required to sign a bill of sale at the time of purchase. No minors without their parents/decision
makers present. Be confident and
knowledgeable of how to drive a 5-speed.
You will not be learning in my car.
And again, reasonable offers will be considered.

BTW: Subaru's SHARC won the 2012 Design Challenge
Mon, 03 Dec 2012Part of the festivities that encompass the LA Auto Show is the annual LA Design Challenge. This year's winner was the Subaru Highway Automated Response Concept, or SHARC. It envisioned automated, zero-emission highway patrolling.
The 2012 edition of the challenge was to envision the future of highway patrol in the year 2025. The goal was to conceptualize a vehicle that would account for the needs of "dynamic urban environments." In addition to Subaru's participation in the contest BMW, General Motors, Honda and Mercedes-Benz, all took part in the challenge.
The SHARC is essentially a law enforcement land-drone. It is entirely automated and runs on renewable energy. Subaru envisioned a future where the Hawaiian Islands are connected to each other by a large highway system. Such an expansive area would require considerable manpower to patrol. The concept of an autonomous patrol vehicle would eliminate the need for a good number of full-time personnel.
Subaru WRX STI vs. Audi S3 in compact AWD dustup
Wed, 23 Jul 2014It's not every day that a Subaru and an Audi can be reasonably compared head-to-head; the two brands tend not to compete directly in their respective segments. However, the latest WRX STI and the S3 Sedan offer the perfect chance to find out if the working-class Scooby can beat its upper-crust competitor.
The UK's Auto Express gets behind the wheel of these two all-wheel drive performance sedans, or saloons as the Brits call them. Across the pond, both of them are rated at an identical 296 horsepower, but the Subaru edges out the Four Rings on torque. Like in the US, British buyers have to pay a little more to get the Audi, but it comes with a nicer interior and more brand cachet, if that means anything to you.
The video starts out with a fairly standard road test comparing the two of them back-to-back - all fairly subjective. But then Auto Express takes the trip to the drag strip, and the results there are much more conclusive. There's a definite winner when they cross the line, but you have to scroll down to see which of these turbocharged models with rallying heritage wins out.
Subaru ups US sales projections to 500k units
Wed, 10 Sep 2014Subaru is going absolutely gangbusters so far in 2014, with growing year-over-year sales every month this year adding to the streak of 33 consecutive months. The prognosis is so positive that the Japanese brand is revising its 2014 forecast to 500,000 vehicles or more, from a previous estimated 460,000. If it reaches the goal, it would be the first time that the automaker hit the half-million mark here.
Subaru has been growing steadily in the US for a while now. Annual sales have increased for the past five consecutive years with 2014 not indicating for that to change. For August alone, the company moved 50,246 vehicles, up 22.37 percent year-over-year, and the business proclaimed it as the best month in its history.
According to Subaru, it believes that the growth for the last two years has been fueled by the latest Forester and XV Crosstrek last year and the new Legacy and Outback this year. "The market is telling us that we are delivering products that consumers want at the right prices," said Thomas J. Doll, president and chief operating officer at Subaru of America.
