Listing is for a Classic 1984 Subaru GL 5 door wagon. Great shape for being 30 years old.

Let me start by saying I purchased this vehicle a couple years back. Unfortunaly it was mis-represented to me. I will NOT do the same to anyone interested. Vehicle came from a salt free area. The condition of the vehicle was good, but not as listed. Broken windshield, Very dirty, Bad brakes, Bad shocks and struts, Running rough! But overall solid enough to fix.

Here are the issues I've fixed:

Detailed vehicle in & out. Tighten all interior screws. Exterior removed or repaired trim and moldings.

Replaced front windshield with Factory original

Replaced shocks & struts all around

New front brakes

Oil change &Tune-up (Plugs,wires,filters,etc)

Exhaust replaced

Vehicle NEEDS!

Rear brakes NEED to be done

Rear diff fluid should be changed

Typical Subaru rust around wheel wells and door bottoms

Overall this vehicle is in Solid condition for the age. Tires are in Very good shape. Rust issues are fixable. No rust thru! Under carriage in good condition. Front hood has dents & there are misc. dents on body, but nothing serious. Bumpers shine up well with product. Door jams all look good as well as moldings. Vehicle runs & drives well. Cold blooded even in warm temps. Gets around GREAT in the snow! But does NOT like are bone chilling temps in the winter. Interior is in Very good condition. No cracks in dash. Rear passenger window does NOT work. All others power. 4 speed manual transmission.

This vehicle is in above average condition. Could be in Excellent condition if I had the time. Selling to purchase a newer Suburban for daily use. If you have one, we can deal. Again PLEASE!! ask any questions and I will answer honestly, as I want you to be satisfied with the vehicle. I can help with shipping on my end. Immediate Pay-Pal deposit will be required. Balance payment can be worked out. Thanks for looking!

Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Subaru gunning for 500,000 US sales by 2015

Fri, 20 Sep 2013

For the last four years in a row, Subaru has experienced incredible sales growth including record sales of 336,441 units in 2012. This trend is all but guaranteed to continue this year with 281,652 on the books so far, but Automotive News is reporting the automaker has no plans of slowing down anytime soon.
The report says that Subaru is gunning for around 500,000 sales in the US by 2015, which doesn't seem like too far of a stretch considering 2013 sales totals are expected to top 400,000 units. Through August, Subaru's sales are up 29.3 percent compared to 2012, thanks to popular models like the Forester, Outback and, surprisingly, the WRX.
A new WRX is headed for an LA Auto Show reveal while an all-new Legacy is due out next year, and AN adds that Subaru is planning to significantly increase its media spending next year and start production of the Impreza sedan in the US in 2016.
