For Sale by Owner ‘08 Impreza WRX Premium (with GPS), 38,000 miles, great condition. Lightning Red - Black Interior (Cloth). We own it outright, the plates have been removed, it is off insurance, in storage, and the title, bill of Sale, and possible meeting places are good to go. Hi! My 08 Impreza is my baby. I took care of her for 4 years after buying it slightly used and in mint condition, 2010. The car had 26,000 miles on it (roughly) and about 38 on it now, although I do have it off the road in storage since I moved to the city five months back. Point is -- I drove it every week, usually every day, and never put any miles on it. The engine has been kept in the perfect condition. I had one accident after driving it all the way up to college the very first time, that a little dings and pings that were worth getting fixed. I blew a valve but it was under warranty so the car has a practically new engine, which was broken in slowly and properly for 5,000 miles (serious perk). It drives awesome! Any ‘08 model year WRX is a blast to drive. Quick enough to 40 that you don’t have to shift and fast enough to 60 that second will get you there no problem. I have widened the wheels for a grippy ride and insane winter performance (the best I have ever seen, including friends who have 4-Runners and trucks. Aside from my own notes any other info on the actual ‘08 WRX can be found online. It is a prime example of a perfectly preserved model (off warranty for any mod heads looking to get 500hp from 8,000 aftermarket, I have a guy for tuning and DYNO if you’re in my area and need it done by a real professional) from that year. The warranty expired based on time not mileage and the car is gorgeous to look at. I will post some pictures I took a few years back. Premium package includes power windows, heated seats, country wide GPS, upgraded sound system and woofer, and lots more (see the website or Wikipedia for exact information). After-market parts include: Decals, Enkei GW8 wheels, 225mm Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires (widened from the stock 205mm for more grip and at .8 tred depth – with a warranty from Tire Rack for 50,000 miles), Weather Tech Rain-Guards, Rally Armor UR Mud Flaps, CURT Manufacturing Trailer Hitch with a 1 7/8” Chrome ball hitch and a brand new CURT trailer hitch (I have towed a large U-Haul, in the middle of a Northern New York blizzard, no problem. The car has a 2000lbs towing capacity, which is perfect for your dirt bike and ATV when traveling for camp or traditional family vacation), Dark Window tints all around and a Visor Strip on the windshield, License Plate cover, Multi-Hundred-Dollar insulated weatherproof car cover for outdoor storage, and decals if you want to change the GW8’s to white from red. I removed the “Subaru” and the “Impreza” decals from the back so it just reads “WRX”. That with the decals and the plate cover, the window tints and the widened profile you get from rain guards and mud flaps gives the car the meanest look I have ever seen. I have spent years designing; researching and looking for a more esthetically pleasing REX – and you have my word that there is no such car. Especially once you put a Borla exhaust on the back for that perfect amount of noise. For more info, or to just talk about the car (one fan to another), please give me a call and I can answer all your questions -- 914-960-2595 or brscag10@gmail.com |

2016 Subaru WRX: Is this successor worthy of the crown?
Mon, Feb 15 2016I was leasing a 2012 Subaru WRX, a car I had wanted since forever. When the lease was up, I decided to trade it in and get another WRX, a 2016 model. Now that I've put over 7,500 miles on the new one, I can offer a fair comparison of the previous-generation model and newest model. While the basic DNA is the same – turbocharged boxer engine + symmetrical all-wheel drive – these cars look and feel rather different. Exterior The prior model WRX ran from 2008 to 2014. In 2011, though, Subaru upped the ante by giving its rally-inspired baby a widebody look similar to the STI variant. The WRX was offered as either a sedan or a hatchback. I opted for the hatchback version because of the extra cargo space, and I felt it looked better than the sedan. I loved the look of this car, especially in the classic World Rally Blue paint. The flared fenders, hood scoop, and quad exhaust tips made for one aggressive-looking machine. It definitely stood out from the crowd. The new model, on the other hand, introduced in 2015, is only offered as a sedan. It blends into the crowd for the most part, but I think the front end looks great and the side profile looks sleek. At the rear, Subaru did a nice job with the stainless steel exhaust tips versus the old model's unfinished tips, but the taillight design is nothing special. The low-profile trunk spoiler is a nice touch. The 18" wheels on the Premium and Limited models look sharp, though they're a bit on the heavy side. Interior The previous generation WRX was criticized for its spartan interior, but I didn't mind it. I liked the simplicity. Everything was easy to use, whereas newer cars have a bit of a learning curve with infotainment systems and whatnot. The red stitching and WRX-embroidered seats added some uniqueness to the car. The fit & finish weren't great, though. There was a rattling sound coming from the driver's side A-pillar that I had to fix. Subaru did a good job with the new model's interior. It feels more elegant than aggressive. The climate control knobs have a nice feel and weight to them, and the steering wheel is superb. There's a digital display on the gauges, a small screen on top of the dash, and Subaru's Starlink system for radio and phone. A back-up camera is standard and displays on the Starlink's 6.2" screen for 2016, which has been a surprisingly nice perk to have.
2015 Subaru Outback
Wed, 22 Oct 2014Realistically, many enthusiasts give horrible, horrible car buying advice. They will recommend something bizarre, inappropriately high performance, compromised or utterly impractical for a given consumer's needs, and they'll almost never recommend something that makes sense. And then they'll come up with 3.7 million reasons why the leading vehicle someone is thinking about is a bad choice.
Or maybe that's just what I do.
Regardless, if you poke, prod, bother or just get us drunk enough, eventually you'll begin getting honest feedback. And more than likely, we'll tell you, in hushed tones, about the many virtues of very, very boring cars. We'll talk about why the Toyota Camry is actually a pretty decent purchase or we'll explain how spacious and feature laden the Nissan Versa is.
Mark Higgins sets new Isle of Man record in Subaru STI
Wed, 04 Jun 2014Subaru has done it again, setting a new four-wheel lap record around the 37.75-mile TT Mountain Course at the Isle of Man. Mark Higgins in a 2015 WRX STI rocketed through the country roads at an average speed of 116.40 miles per hour to circle the track in 19 minutes, 26 seconds, thereby beating his previous record of 19 minutes 56.7 seconds from 2011 in an STI.
According to Subaru, speeds during the lap ranged from as little as 30 mph to over 160 mph. The STI was mostly stock with the only major mechanical change being different springs and dampers to handle the course's famous bumps at such sustained high speeds. For safety, it also had a rollcage, racing harness, and fire suppression system.
"It was quite a lap we did today and I am really happy to have another record in the bank. The chassis of the new car is so much better it really allowed me to pick up time in each sector in the more technical parts of the course," said Higgins about the run in the Subaru.
