This Subie was my daily driver until I got a new car. This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION, car must go, I have too many. High bidder gets it. Runs and is drivable and the A/C is ice cold but needs some things done. Fine to be driven home locally but don't plan on driving it thousands of miles.
1. Needs the driver side head changed. I did the passenger side about 10,000 miles ago and it was good for a while. I pulled the motor and did head gaskets, water pump, timing belt, and so on when I first bought the car. Put it all back together and found out that there was a problem with the valves on the passenger side causing misfire code in number one cylinder so I replaced the head on that side, that cleared up the code. It's now starting to use about a quart every 1000 miles so I suspect it's time to replace the other head. The good news is that I have the complete driver side head that goes with the car. I just didn't get to installing it.
2. Windshield is cracked on passenger side but passed inspection last year.
3. Has evap control system malfunction code. Probably needs the fuel filler neck replaced. Not a big deal.
4. Will need front wheel bearings, driver side first. I have a brand new hub, bearing and seals that I bought but never got to install. Parts go with the car.
Tires are about 80% snow tires. I used to run summer and winter tires on the car but I'm keeping my summer set for my trailer. I put the stock factory radio back in, has a tape player but not sure if it works or not. I put the Subaru wiring harness adapter in the glove box so the new owner has it when he/she puts a good radio in. I have the drip catcher from under the engine, a few front end parts, and evap control parts in a box, the good driver side head, and new hub, bearing and seals in the back that all goes with the car. I was getting 24-25 highway with it. GREAT IN THE SNOW!!!
I can't really think of anything else. Once the 4 issues above are addressed, the car will be good for many more miles I think. Would be a good car to fix up for a college student or teen driver. Fix it the rest of the summer and it will be ready for when school starts. They are VERY easy to work on. I can have the motor out in an hour or two. The starting bid is VERY LOW compared to what the car is worth and NO RESERVE because I need the car to sell. High bidder gets it. Payment in cash, NO PAYPAL. Must be picked up locally, I will not ship the car.
Ask any questions you may have and please don't bid if you don't have the money to pay for it. I have had a very good experience on e-bay over the years and 100% positive feedback reflects that.

Plans for 7-seat Subaru Tribeca replacement becoming clearer
Mon, 11 Nov 2013Subaru is going to have its hands full at the Tokyo Motor Show next week, but while the Cross Sport Design Concept is expected to preview a Tribeca-replacing crossover, this new model could still be at least two years from production. It has already been confirmed that production of the Tribeca will end early next year, but in speaking with Yasuyuki Yoshinaga, the president of Subaru's parent Fuji Heavy Industries, Automotive News is reporting that there will be a lengthy gap between the Tribeca and its eventual replacement.
The next-gen three-row crossover wasn't included in an annual production capacity goal of 500,000 units expected in the US by the end of 2016, so it's likely that we won't see this much-needed CUV until 2017. While the details of this new model aren't known, Yoshinaga told AN that it will be "completely different" from the Tribeca. As we heard back in February, we do expect this seven-passenger crossover to grow in size in order to offer a larger cabin with more third-row space.
Automotive News even mentions that the Tribeca replacement could be based on the existing Subaru Exiga from the Japanese market. That three-row vehicle splits the difference between a minivan and wagon, with swinging doors instead of sliders, and a tall greenhouse.
Cosworth teases upgrades for Subaru BRZ
Mon, 19 May 2014Subaru may or may not produce an STI version of the BRZ. Things seem to go back and forth on the subject. But Subaru Tecnica International isn't the only company with a history of tuning Subies. So does Cosworth, and now the British racing firm appears to be turning its attention to the BRZ and its Toyota- and Scion-badged siblings.
For those unacquainted, Cosworth is more than your average tuning company. It's a racing firm first and foremost, having made F1 engines under its own name as well as Ford's (chief among them the all-conquering DFV 3.0-liter V8 of 1960s and 70s fame), not to mention engines for Indy, rally and even high-performance, road-going versions of the Ford Sierra, Chevy Vega and Mercedes 190E. The list goes on and on, but you get the point.
Now withdrawing from Formula One, Cosworth is focusing its attention on tuning road cars again with the launch of the Cosworth Power Package line, the first of which will focus on the Toyota GT86 (aka Scion FR-S) and Subaru BRZ. We don't know just yet what will be included in the packaged dubbed FA-20, but from the video teaser below, it seems there'll be upgrades to the exhaust, suspension, aero and - if we're lucky - maybe a super- or turbocharger for the 2.0-liter flat-four engine. We'll have to wait and see, but we get the feeling that with Cosworth on the job, it'll be worth the wait. Check out the minute-long video below in the meantime.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
