It is now a pearl blue so dark that you can only see that it's blue in brightest sunlight.There are gravel dings to be expected on a car this age.There's a scratch on the rear bumper and the stitching on the drivers side seat bolster is showing the effects of an ass getting in and out thousands of times.Oh yes, the clock doesn't work...fuse maybe?"

TALE OF A ONE OWNER 2002 WRX


YES, I AM THE SECOND OWNER BUT THAT WAS ONLY AS OF JULY 12 OF THIS YEAR AND I'M AN OLD GUY (62) TOO.

I FOUND THIS CAR ON THE INTERNET AT A DEALERSHIP AND FELL IN LOVE DAYDREAMING OVER ALL THE BEAUTIFUL PICTURES OF IT AND MANY OF THOSE SAME PICTURES ARE HERE FOR  YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE.

I LOVE THAT THE CAR CAME FROM THE FACTORY WITHOUT THAT RIDICULOUS "SPOILER" AND IT HAS ONE OF THE PRETTIEST BUTTS IN ALL CARDOME IN MY OPINION.

UNASSUMING, LOW-KEY, HAUL ASS. 

I WAS HELPLESS TO RESIST AND WHEN I REGAINED CONSCIOUSNESS, I  FOUND MYSELF DRIVING IT BACK TO L.A. FROM SAN MATEO...IT TOOK ME OVER TWO HOURS TO GO FIFTY MILES IN BAY AREA TRAFFIC ON A HOT FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND I CAN REPORT THAT THE CLUTCH NEVER COMPLAINED, THE TEMP GAUGE NEVER MOVED AND THE A/C BLEW ICE COLD AND THE CD PLAYER (AUDIO BOOK) WORKED PERFECTLY. 

ONCE THE TRAFFIC CLEARED AND I WAS DOING 85-90 MOST OF THE WAY, THE CAR WAS AS STABLE AND SMOOTH AS A MAGIC CARPET.

THE SAD NEWS FOR ME IS, THE JOB I DO CUT OFF AT THE SAME TIME I BOUGHT THE CAR AND LEFT ME FEELING LIKE WILE E. COYOTE AFTER HE CHASED THE ROADRUNNER OFF THE CLIFF AND LOOKED DOWN. 

WHAT I HAVE TO TELL YOU NEXT IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION AS TO WHETHER OR NOT YOU DECIDE TO GET THIS CAR.

I WANTED TO FIND OUT ABOUT THE PREVIOUS OWNER WHO HAD BOUGHT THE CAR NEW, SO I COULD ASK HIM ABOUT IT.

THAT WAS GOING TO BE IMPOSSIBLE BUT FOR ONE LITTLE QUIRKY HABIT HE HAD...STUCK TO THE INSIDE OF THE TRUNK LID WERE VISITOR STICKERS FROM DIFFERENT COMPANIES IN SILICON VALLEY, THE TYPE OF STICKERS YOU'D PUT ON YOUR SHIRT THAT GAVE YOUR NAME AND YOUR COMPANY NAME.

YOU CAN IMAGINE MY EXCITEMENT WHEN I LOOKED HIM AND HIS COMPANY UP AND HE HAS WEBSITES AND VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE.

I SENT AN INTRODUCTION TO HIS CONTACT ADDRESS BUT I NEVER HEARD ONE WORD BACK SO I TRIED ONE MORE TIME AND REALIZED THAT COMMUNICATING WITH ME WASN'T SOMETHING HE WANTED SO I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I WAS ABLE TO FIND OUT AND THEN SOME SPECULATION ON MY PART.

ACCORDING TO WHERE THE CAR WAS BOUGHT, REGISTERED AND SERVICED, (CARFAX) I SURMISE THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE MILES ARE HIGHWAY MILES BECAUSE OF THE DISTANCE BETWEEN HIS HOME AREA AND WHERE HE WORKED. 

BY HOW HE LOOKS ON HIS VIDEOS, HE LOOKS TO BE IN HIS MID 50'S, HE IS A SOFTWARE DEVELOPER, INVENTOR  AS WELL.

IN OTHER WORDS, A MILD MANNERED, MIDDLE AGED CREATIVE GENIUS AND NOT SOME TEENAGER SUFFERING FROM TESTOSTERONE POISONING. 

(OUT OF RESPECT FOR HIS UNSPOKEN WISH TO BE LEFT ALONE, I WILL REMOVE THE STICKERS FROM THE TRUNK LID AND NOT REVEAL HIS NAME)   

THIS TELLS ME THAT THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN ABUSED BUT WELL MAINTAINED AND THE STICKER ON THE LICENCE PLATE IS GOOD UNTIL MARCH 2014.

THE TIRES ARE EXCELLENT, AND THE WHEELS HAVE NO CURB RASH...WHICH IS A MIRACLE.

IT'S BEEN UP ON A LIFT SINCE I GOT IT HOME AND I WAS TOLD THE BRAKES ARE GOOD AND THERE ARE NO LEAKS ANYWHERE.

THERE ARE NO CREAKS OR RATTLES AND THE ENGINE SOUNDS BEAUTIFUL AND WHEN I STICK MY FOOT IN IT ON  AN ON RAMP, IT JUST PULLS HARD FROM 4K TO 6K...I NEVER GO PAST 6K RPM, WHY SHOULD I?

I HAD AN '02 WRX WAGON THAT I BOUGHT NEW WHICH I TRADED IN ON AN '05 SEDAN WHICH I TRADED IN ON AN '06 EVO9 BUT I NEVER FORGOT ABOUT THE WRX.

ANYWAY, IN SOME WAYS IT SHOWS IT'S AGE BUT FOR THE MOST PART IT'S REAL FINE.

IT HAS BEEN REPAINTED BUT I DON'T KNOW WHEN AND YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURES THAT IT LOOKS GREAT.

I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY AS IT IS BEING ADVERTISED LOCALLY AS WELL.

I DON'T DRIVE IT NOW SINCE I DECIDED TO SELL IT BUT MAYBE JUST ONE MORE TIME...

Subaru BRZ tS makes its brief video debut

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Ever since Subaru released the BRZ, fans have been eagerly anticipating the arrival of the STI version. But despite the recent release of the tS package, the brand faithful will have to wait a little longer, because the tS stops short of the full STI treatment. But at least it looks the part.
Though the BRZ tS doesn't encompass any major engine mods to speak of, it does benefit from a number of enhancements: a new driveshaft, aero kit, Brembo brakes, Recaro buckets and more. Which may be more than enough for some, but to tip the scales of disappointment, Subaru will only make 500 such examples, and they'll only be available in Japan. So chances are you won't be getting your hands on one, but at least you can admire it from this brief video clip below. It's not much to go on, but that seems about par for the proverbial course.

Subaru Legacy Concept has us getting our hopes up

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

It happens all the time. We get excited about a really attractive Subaru concept, and then the production car comes out and, well, "disappointed" isn't a strong enough word. (Compare that hot Impreza concept to the final production car.) So while we're hopeful that this new Legacy concept previews something sleek for Subaru, allow us to be fully on record as not getting our hopes up.
Anyway, let's talk about how good this car looks. From the front, comparisons to the Buick Regal GS are warranted, but from all other angles, it has a very four-door coupe-like shape. The concept rides on 21-inch wheels with bulging wheel arches that Subaru says hints at the car's all-wheel-drive system (standard Subaru fare, BRZ aside).
As for what exactly this concept previews, the safe guess is, of course, the next-generation Legacy midsize sedan. And while we'll keep our fingers crossed for a sweet-looking production sedan to come out of Fuji Heavy in the near future, it's safe to say we're still skeptical.

Climb to the Clouds returning thanks to Subaru title sponsorship [w/video]

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

The Mt. Washington Hillclimb, otherwise known as the Climb to the Clouds, hasn't been done since 2011. That year, Subaru Rally Team USA driver David Higgins set a new record for the event first held in 1904, running the 7.6-mile vertiginous course in 6:11.54. The race will be return in 2014 with the help of that very carmaker, Subaru of America having stepped in to the title sponsor role for what will be the Subaru Mt. Washington Hillclimb.
Taking place from June 26-29, 75 modern and vintage cars will spend three days racing up the 6,288-foot-high mountain. It's not as long nor as high as Pikes Peak, but it does have something that the Colorado competition doesn't: gravel; about 13 percent of the Mt. Washington Carriage Road still hasn't been paved.
If you want to know what a record-breaking run up the northeast's highest peak looks like, check out Higgins behind the wheel in the video below.
