This is a once in a lifetime buy. This 1992 Subaru SVX LSL is a very impressive vehicle with a very unique history. I came upon the opportunity to purchase this vehicle over this past summer, as it sat, having been garage stored since 2002. I could not pass up the chance to own this piece of automotive history. The vehicle was initially purchased in 1992 (believe it or not) by a woman born in 1926. In 1998 it was traded in at a local dealership. The owner of that dealership thought so highly of the car that it was the only one from his lot that he kept when they closed down. He stored it in his personal garage soon after. There it sat until this summer when he offered the sale. Upon purchasing the car I went ahead and changed the fluids, fuel pump, fuel filter & battery. It started up first try. To test the durability of this Subaru I took a Fall trip from Maryland to New Hampshire and back with no issues. I have included plenty of pictures so as to give full detail into the cars strengths and weaknesses. I will also try to describe everything as detailed as I can. Before the car was stored it was given a new timing belt, new brakes, and new tires (I have all paperwork to verify). I replaced the parts previously stated and gave it a full cleaning. What I have found so far is that the engine runs very smooth and is very powerful, the transmission shifts effortlessly, braking is solid, and the car (interior and exterior) is in great original condition. Some of the faults that I have noted are that the gas gauge is not working (probably the sending unit), the rear seat behind, the head rests, has small cracks in the leather (pictured), some areas on the roof and below the driver rear window have the clear coat coming up (pictured), and every so often the car will crank 6-8 times before starting (not sure what the issue is there). I really hate to sell the car as it will soon fall in the collector car category and promises to only increase in value with as low as the miles are (84.444). That being said, financially, I have no choice. I hope to find an enthusiast that will appreciate this rare Subaru for all of it's unique characteristics. If you are not familiar with these cars, do a little research before deciding your bidding price. I was incredibly surprised to read how few of these were sold in the US and the fact that they have been verified to achieve 160mph +. If you have any questions, or would like to see the car before the auction close, feel free to contact me. This auction is being offered with NO RESERVE, so the high bidder takes it home. This vehicle is being sold as is with no warranty expressed or implied. A $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 24hrs and full payment within 7 days. 

Thanks and Happy Bidding!

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota 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).

LA Design Challenge invokes biology for 2025 concepts [w/poll]

Wed, 13 Nov 2013

Participants in the annual LA Design Challenge always manage to come up with edgy, wacky designs for future vehicles, but with a theme of "Biomimicry and Mobility: 2025" this year's crop of cars might be the quirkiest we've ever seen. As usual, automotive designers from around the world participated in this year's competition, and all the designs will all be unveiled next week during the LA Auto Show with a winner being announced on November 21.
Chinese automakers made a strong showing with Qoros, SAIC Motor, JAC Motors (the company responsible for the Ford F-150 clone) and Changfeng all bringing interesting takes on the biology, human intelligence and sustainability theme. One of the more innovative ideas among these automakers is the Qoros Silk Road System allows autonomous vehicles to drive in packs similar to how ants travel. Speaking of ants, the SAIC Motor Mobiliant (shown above) gets its design from the shape of an ant's body, and, like the insect, it can climb building acting as a personal elevator as well. The JAC Motors design also merges vehicle and building design, while the Changfeng LaBrea inspired by the design of muscle fibers.
Other entrants include Subaru and US-based design teams for BMW, Toyota and Mazda. BMW's duo of concepts mimic plant and animal life. The LA Subways concept acts as a submersible, single-person vehicle to take advantage of the LA river, with a shape similar to an Ocean Sunfish. The Sustainable Efficient Exploratory Device (SEED) imitates the shape of a seed pod, and uses propulsion methods inspired by a shark, dragonfly and a water bug. Mazda's Auto Adapt might be the most car-like concept of the bunch, while the Subaru Suba-Roo and the Calty-designed, Toyota e-grus are the most mind-blowingly awesome.

Subaru issues recall over cars that may start themselves

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Subaru has issued one of the strangest recalls we've come across in some time. As it turns out, certain Subaru models may randomly start their own engines. The issue is confined to select models equipped with an automatic or CVT and the company's optional Audiovox remote engine starter (RES) accessory. If the RES key fob is dropped, it could "randomly transmit an engine start request without pressing the button."
Vehicles affected include the 2010-2012 Legacy and Outback with an automatic or CVT, 2012-2013 Impreza with the CVT, and 2013 XV Crosstrek with CVT (shown), all equipped with the Audiovox RES accessory. Likewise, certain 2013 Legacy and Outbacks may have received replacement RES fobs that could be affected. All told, 47,419 vehicles are included in the recall.
Should one of these cars start on their own, Subaru says they will run up to 15 minutes, but the vehicle may also continue to start and stop until either the battery in the fob dies or the car runs out of fuel. Of course, if one of these cars is parked in an enclosed area, that means harmful gasses could build up, which could be dangerous if inhaled.
