This is the one you've been waiting for!!!!

 

One adult owner, ultra low mileage Florida car in Obsidian black with original gold BBS wheels.

(This is a completely unmolested car with an Autocheck score of 95, it just doesn't get any better then this!!)

 

I purchased this car brand new from Mastro Subaru in Tampa FL. At the time I was 34 years old, and drove this car every day for the first two years of ownership. Now I'm well into my 40's with three kids, and only drive the car once or twice a month. My automotive priorities have changed and it's time for this wonderful car to go to someone who will appreciate this car as I did back in 2006.

 

This car is in truly exceptional condition. Absolutely everything works as it should on this car. No issues, no dissapointments. All it's paint is original, the interior is completely stock, there isn't a single door ding on it. It's never spent a night outside, never seen snow, ice or salt. What else can I say? If you've been holding out for the right STI to come along, this is your chance... One day I'm going to regret selling this car as they're going to become a serious collectors piece very soon. This one is so good it belongs in Subaru of Americas own collection up in Cherry Hill, NJ. I have a reserve on it because I'm not willing to take the risk of a no reserve listing on this car, it's just too nice. The reserve is reasonable though and in line with other recent STI sales on eBay.

 

During my ownership, the car has only had Mobil 1 oil changes, I've only ever used Shell 93 Octane in it, and has only required a few service/maintenance items. I replaced the tires in 2012 with brand new and slightly wider (245/40/17) Yokohama S.Drives, Also in 2012 I replaced the front brake pads with StopTech pads and also replaced the battery with a brand new genuine Subaru battery. The wiper blades were replaced around the same time as well. To show you how detailed I am regarding this car, I kept all the original parts removed (battery, brake pads, wiper blades, etc..) so if the new owner wants them they're welcome to them. It has only two very minor modifications, an SPT intake and a Prodrive muffler, which I did a couple of months after buying it. I still have and will include the original airbox/intake. Unfortunately, I sold the original muffler some years ago... It also has a very nice window tint all around that I had done right after I bought the car. As the car doesn't spent much time outside, the tint is still as new.

 

Take a look at the all the pictures, it really is that clean in person, it drives exactly as it did back in 2006 when I drove it off the lot in 2006. The interior still has the new car smell, it's never been eaten, drank or smoked in... Yes, I'm one of those people who makes others take their shoes off when getting in my car. This car has never even had a drink in it's cup holders!!! This has to be the closest thing to a new 2006 STI out there, unless someone bought one and immediately tucked it away in a warehouse somewhere. The pictures show a ScanGauge 2 velcroed to the top of the steering column. I use this to show MAP, intake air temp, ignition timing and speed confirmation. The new owner can keep it or I'll remove it if desired.

 

The car has a clean/clear Florida title and comes with all the original paperwork, owners manual and sets of keys. Local buyers are very welcome to view the car in person. I require a non-refundable $250 deposit upon purchase commitment. Please make sure you have the funds available before bidding!!! I will be happy to meet any buyer flying in to drive it home at SRQ airport. I will also be happy to help load it on a car transport if shipping is required. If shipping is required it is the buyers responsibility to arrange and pay for shipping. Please ask any questions prior to bidding. I will be happy to email the shown pictures as well as other current pictures of the car to anyone who asks and provides a valid email address.

 

Best of luck and don't forget that reserve auctions need to be bid on early and often to drive the bid up to the reserve price.

Waiting until the end of the listing to bid doesn't work for reserve auctions.

Subaru looks back on record-setting WRX STI from 2011 Isle of Man

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

In what we can only presume/hope is a precursor to the launch of the next-gen WRX STI, Subaru has released three videos now giving us a look back at the history of the STI-badged WRX models. In this third video, Dominick Infante, national manager of product communications at Subaru of America, got ahold of the automaker's 2011 WRX STI that broke records for the Isle of Man TT Challenge a couple of years ago.
In 2011, rally driver Mark Higgins piloted this car to a lap speed record of 115 miles per hour and a lap time record of 19:56.7 around the 37.8-mile course. The race-prepped STI, which Infante refers to as an "STI on steroids," features a beefed-up suspension, a wonderful-sounding open exhaust and the removal of the speed limiter to go with full roll cage and racing seats and harnesses.
Scroll down to see - and hear - new driving footage of this 2011 WRX STI with Infante behind the wheel as well as some race footage from 2011 - including a near-disaster Higgins averted at 150 mph. Also, be sure to check out the previous videos from Subaru for the 1998 Impreza 22B STI and a 2004 WRX STI.

How Subaru saved itself by marketing to the gay community

Mon, Oct 17 2016

Almost everyone who's in the car community, and even people that aren't, have probably heard the stereotype that lesbians drive Subarus. What you may not realize is that stereotype was fostered by Subaru, and it helped make the company relevant again in the '90s. This is the story told by NPR's Planet Money podcast. Apparently, as the company was trying to figure out who was buying its cars, the marketing folks discovered that gay and lesbian people were a large segment – along with all those outdoorsy types. The discovery led to subtle advertising directed specifically at what we now refer to as the LGBT community, which in turn led to more sales to gay and lesbian consumers. There were other components to Subaru's sales strategy in the '90s, but this particular campaign was an important part and quite successful. Thanks to that success, today we still have Subaru around building reliable, all-wheel-drive transportation, as well as rally-inspired sport compacts. There are of course many more details, but we don't want to spoil them for you. For the whole story, you need to head over to the Planet Money site and listen in.

Subaru punches out 15 millionth Boxer engine

Wed, Feb 18 2015

It's a small milestone for our favorite manufacturer of gold-wheeled, all-wheel-drive sedans and crossovers, as Subaru announced that it has built its 15 millionth Boxer engine – a mere 49 years after it installed a tiny, horizontally opposed, four-cylinder mill in the 1966 1000 sedan. The milestone engine powers something a good bit larger than the 1000, which was (ironically considering Subaru today) the brand's first front-drive vehicle. Today's boxer, the so-called FB25 2.5-liter four, was built for the current Legacy and Outback. The 15 millionth Boxer hasn't been the brand's only accomplishment in 2015. The company built its 14 millionth Symmetrical all-wheel-drive system just last month. Subaru has only been at its trademark AWD system for 43 years, and with sales going the way they are, it seems only a matter of time before the Boxer engine is surpassed. Related Video:
