THERE IS A REASON THAT THESE SUBARU "FORESTERS" RARELY COME UP FOR AUCTION ON EBAY. VERY SIMPLY, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE "SPECIAL" VEHICLES THAT ARE ABSOLUTELY BULLET-PROOF, REGULARLY EXCEEDING 400,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WITH LITTLE MORE THAN REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND AN OCCASIONAL SET OF TIRES AND BRAKES.

I AM SELLING THIS SUBARU FOR A GOOD FRIEND WHO IS NOT "INTERNET SAVVY". THE CAR WAS HIS "DAILY DRIVER" AND BECAUSE HE PURCHASED A NEW VEHICLE, THIS TRUSTY FORESTER BECAME EXPENDABLE. PRIOR TO HIS PURCHASE OF THIS VEHICLE IT HAD NEW HEAD GASKETS, NEW WATER PUMP, ETC INSTALLED. IN OTHER WORDS--ALL THE USUAL UPDATES THAT AN OWNER NORMALLY MAKES WHEN THE CAR HITS ABOUT 175,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WERE PERFORMED.

THIS SUBARU IS VERY CLEAN, HAS NO RUST ISSUES, NO TEARS IN THE UPHOLSTERY, AND NO DENTS OR DEFECTS. EVEN BETTER, I JUST HAD THE ROTORS AND PADS REPLACED AT THE LOCAL SUBARU DEALER-- AT A COST OF NEARLY $400. IT IS ROLLING ON A NEARLY NEW $600 SET OF ALL-SEASON "COOPER" TIRES. BUT BEST OF ALL, FOR THE LAST 8 MONTHS IT HAS BEEN PARKED EACH AND EVERY DAY AT THE EXACT SAME PLACE ON MY FRIENDS ASPHALT DRIVEWAY AND THERE HAS NOT BEEN EVEN A SINGLE DROP OF OIL OR ANY KIND OF FLUID UNDER THE CAR!!

THIS SUBARU IS AN EXCELLENT VALUE, AND AS WITH ALL MY AUCTIONS I NEVER INSULT A POTENTIAL BIDDER'S INTELLIGENCE BY USING A "BUY-IT-NOW" OR SUGGESTING A MINIMUM PRICE. ALL MY AUCTIONS START AT $.99 CENTS AND END WHEN THE WINNING BIDDER DETERMINES THE FINAL SALE PRICE.

PLEASE NOTE MY 100-PERCENT "FEEDBACK" RATING. LOOK THE PHOTOS OVER CAREFULLY AND CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE. I ENCOURAGE YOU TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE AND TAKE A TEST DRIVE. I AM LOCATED IN NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT, IN A SMALL "BEDROOM" COMMUNITY OF $400,000 HOMES. YOU CAN FEEL COMPLETELY SAFE EITHER INSPECTING, TEST-DRIVING OR PICKING UP THIS CAR. IN FACT, MY NEXT-DOOR NEIGHBOR OWNED AN IDENTICAL SUBARU THAT WENT OVER 450,000 MILES--WHICH IS HOW I GOT TURNED ON TO THE EXCEPTIONAL LONGEVITY OF THESE AMAZING VEHICLES!

2015 Subaru Legacy prototype caught testing in Michigan

Tue, 30 Jul 2013

The current Subaru Legacy is only three years old, but compared to rival midsize sedans like the Mazda6 and Ford Fusion, which have recently received thorough redesigns, it might as well be a million. In other words, a reworking is in order. Caught in these spy shots, the 2015 Subaru Legacy appears to be about the same size as the current model, but it appears that Subaru is looking to push the sedan a little more upmarket in terms of styling and luxury.
Despite the heavy camouflage, some elements of the new Legacy's design are still visible. The new headlights still have a scalloped shape but are much narrower, and we can also see the deep body creases that run the full length of the sedan. At the rear of the new Legacy, the taillights should get some added depth with a C-shaped brake light design similar to what we saw on the WRX Concept earlier in the year.
Showing that Subaru is aiming a little bit higher for this Legacy, this car is being benchmarked against all-wheel-drive luxury vehicles like the current Infiniti G37 and the Audi Allroad - the latter is likely for comparison with the Legacy's wagon version, the Outback. Following the XV Crosstrek Hybrid, we expect the 2015 Legacy to be the next Subaru product to get a gasoline-electric hybrid powertrain, which we hear will be paired with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, a CVT and, of course, all-wheel drive.

Hi-po Toyota GT86 to get KERS?

Fri, 09 Nov 2012

We happen to like the Toyota GT86 - and, it of course goes without saying that the same applies to the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S, as well - just the way it is. Yes, that includes the standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder boxer engine and its 200 horsepower at 7,000 rpm.
That said, a little extra power never hurt anybody, right?
The most obvious way to add some punch to the GT86 would be with a turbocharger, and that has indeed long been rumored for an STI version of the BRZ. Will Toyota follow suit? According to Top Gear, the answer is no. Says GT86 chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, "I think 300bhp with a turbo and 200g/km of CO2 would be tasteless in this day and age. And a turbo would mean the loss of the GT86's uniqueness." Perhaps a bit harsh, but there you go.

Subaru readying special-edition BRZ

Fri, 14 Feb 2014

Another week coming to a close brings another rumor of a potential hotted-up version of the Subaru everyone wants to turbocharge, the BRZ.
A fresh rumor out of the Car and Driver offices makes the claim that a new, special-edition BRZ model will be offered up within the next few months. Word is that the new model will not get similar upgrades to the recent BRZ tS (seen above) for the Japanese market, meaning we're likely in for a cosmetic update instead of a functional one.
The looks of the tS could still be in the cards, however, meaning swapped-out lip spoiler, wheels and even STI badging might be on the way.
