Jacksonville, Florida, United States
2005 Aspen White STi. 81,400 miles. Executive Summary Single owner '05 STi Highest quality aftermarket parts, fully sorted mechanicals Professionally built and tuned engine (last dyno 389/395 at the wheels) Street/Autocross weapon, DD and Track Ready The Good Original owner. I know everything about the car. I am technical professional who has treated this car with great care (and expense) since I took it off the delivery truck in May of 2004. Always garaged. NASIOC member since 2000 with spotless reputation. Powertrain. The car is a beast. It has been expert built, and professionally tuned. The engine was built by WJM (may he rest in peace), Subaru Master Tech, former TopSpeed engine builder, and all-around Subaru fanatic. Documented 389/395 in a dyno session (Doug Wilkes from TopSpeed), with explosive onset of torque. Has been road tuned (STi Mikey from PhatBotti Tuning) since then, so I expect it is more now. Very streetable power. A stop-light beast, and one of the fastest vehicles at local autocross. Solid, solid car: no codes, the synchros don't grind. Suspension. One word - spectacular. It can handle autocross no sweat, yet still be daily driven. RCE Tarmac II fully adjustable coil-overs with all sorts of TiC, Whiteline and Kartboy goodies. Interior. The interior is mostly stock. The alcantara seats are original and in great condition. Fully integrated Kenwood DNX7140 with Garmin navigation, Parrot Bluetooth, DVD with Blaupunkt door speakers and aftermarket under-seat subwoofer. A tasteful matching STi-red Omari boost gauge is mounted on the steering column. Exterior. The exterior paint is in great condition, and the car shines up nicely. The wingless trunk provides a great stealthy look, while the front scoop and lip are subtly aggressive. The JDM fogs will catch the most discriminating Subaru enthusiasts eye. Professional center grill pillar removal with charcoal metallic trim paint is gorgeous. The bad Nothing. This car is awesome. The ugly Nothing. This car is awesome. Okay, there are several small dings and scuffs that the car has collected over 10 years. The This is not a show car. It is a very well cared for daily-driver that was occasionally autocrossed. The dings/scuffs don't photograph well, but I'll point them all out to prospective owners.

The electronic aides in the car are all about helping you go faster. The car will make you look like a track hero, with 4-wheel power-on drifts that are very easy to control. However, the car will NOT save you from a mistake. I reserve the right to NOT show you the car or provide a test drive if I think you are not a serious buyer and/or a capable driver. Under 18 needs a parent. I have title in hand, buyers need to have cash/financing in hand. |

Subaru EyeSight: Autoblog Technology of the Year finalist
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Peering out of the top of the windshield of a growing number of Subaru models, looking like a pair of cyborg eyes on either side of the car's rearview mirror, are twin cameras that make up the visible portion of Subaru's high-tech EyeSight system. For 2015, the stereoscopic camera-based system is available on the Forester, Legacy, Impreza and Outback.
These cameras allow Subaru to equip its vehicles with such safety and convenience features as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning and pre-collision braking that can slow the car automatically if an imminent accident is detected, even bringing the vehicle to a complete stop.
Subaru has offered EyeSight technology on its vehicles in the United States since the 2013 model year. Newly upgraded for 2015, EyeSight's smaller cameras now see in color and are capable of scanning further ahead and over a wider swath, which means an EyeSight-equipped car will now be able to respond more quickly. That means a higher chance of accident avoidance for 2015, something everyone on the road will surely appreciate.
Subaru's first hybrid drawing close
Sun, 27 Jan 2013In 2011 Subaru parent company Fuji Heavy Industries confirmed that a hybrid Subaru would debut this year. Ever since, there's been speculation about what kind of technology the gasoline-electric hybrid would use - Subaru's own or some version of the Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive, which car would debut the new system - Forester, Legacy, or Outback - and whether it would come to America or be a Japan-only model.
A report in The Detroit Bureau says that whatever that first model is, it could be shown as soon as the New York Auto Show, and while the company feels it's a must-have offering for the Japanese market it will also come to the US. It will have a Subaru-developed mild hybrid system that could have been previewed by the Hybrid Tourer concept shown at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show, and is not expected to be able to drive on electric power alone. The Hybrid Tourer used a direct-injected, 2.0-liter boxer engine connected to a CVT and assisted by an electric motor rated at 13 horsepower. Subaru has yet to give anything away about the details of its hybrid plans, so we'll look to New York for the long-awaited unveil.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The 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.
