Up for sale is my 2008 WRX hatchback.  87,300 miles and counting.  Stage 1 Torqued Performance tune since I bought it when it had 30k miles on it. The car is primarily my daily driver and has never been autocrossed, rallied, road raced, pulled, shifted hard, or even redlined.  Other than when I got the car tuned on a Torqued Performance tune, it has been babied.  I use to drive to work, visit my girlfriend, and cart my bicycles around, and that’s about it.  That being said, the car does have an extensive list of modifications, all of which were done by me personally and a very good friend and trusted mechanic, so everything has been done correctly.  Most of the mods, however, are NOT power mods.  The only and very few engine-related mods were done while servicing something else that made whatever part easy to replace, and the tune has been adjusted for the engine-related mods.  Most of the work went into bettering the interior, chassis, suspension, and making the car nicer rather than faster.  Car has $7,800 worth of aftermarket parts.

THE BAD.  Hillstart-assist and traction control don’t work.  The lights came on two years ago and the car works perfectly other than those lights being on.  ABS still works, but no traction control and hillstart-assist.  To fix this might be as simple as plugging in a wire or something, but I just didn’t want to mess with it as it doesn’t affect the function and performance of a car.   Airbag light recently came on for a bad driver’s airbag, which I had replaced with a new one.  That code went away, but the airbag light is still on.

I did an STI center console swap and STI front seat swap.  Wheels and tires came off a 0 mile 2012 WRX and have 1.5 summers of easy, oldman driving on them.  Torqued Performance tune/Cobb Accessport comes with the car.  Tune is solid and has been adjusted for the composite TGV deletes so that there are no CELs.  Acceleration is buttery smooth.  Nothing like the Cobb OTS maps or the OEM map.  Rotella T6 full synthetic oil changed every 3k miles on the dot by me personally.  Only Subaru OEM oil filters used.  Full sound deadening on both inside and outside door skins on all four doors and the hatch lid and floor.  HID low beams from The Retrofit Source, 4300K pure white.  None of the weird blue color you see with other HIDs.  LED interior lights, license plate bulbs, and LED switchback turn signals.  Full list of mods is included.

The car will be sold as it sits.  No parts will be taken off to decrease the value.  I am getting out of the Subaru game entirely, so I don’t want to mess with parting it out.  I am selling the car simply because it’s time to move on.  Nothing more, nothing less.  Never smoked in and never had any animals in it.

Pricing: $15,000.  Cash or cashier’s check.  If using cashier’s check, then the car and title will not be handed over until my bank has cleared the funds. 

NO payment plans.  NO trades.  NO lowballs.  Reasonable offers will be considered.  The car accelerates, runs, stops, and corners perfectly and without defect.  Test drives for serious buyers only.  NO test drives without me present in the car.  NO hard accelerating, braking, shifting, etc, during a test drive.  If you test drive the car, know that it is still my car and will be driven lightly.  NO joyrides.  NO joyrides.  NO joyrides.  Buyer will be required to sign a bill of sale at the time of purchase.  No minors without their parents/decision makers present.  Be confident and knowledgeable of how to drive a 5-speed.  You will not be learning in my car.  And again, reasonable offers will be considered.

2015 Subaru WRX priced from $26,295*, STI from $34,495*

Fri, 14 Feb 2014

As you read these words, we're putting together our full First Drive report on the 2015 Subaru WRX STI. And back in December, we were given our first shot behind the wheel of the wingless 2015 Subaru WRX. Both cars will launch at the same time, hitting dealers this spring, and Subaru has now confirmed that pricing will start at $26,295 for the standard WRX, and $34,495 for the hotter STI, with both models subject to a *$795 for destination fee.
On the WRX, that price gets you a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine good for 268 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated to a six-speed manual transmission. There are three trim levels available - base, Premium and Limited - the latter of which will retail for $28,495 and $29,995, respectively. Premium and Limited models are also available with a new continuously variable transmission (it isn't bad - seriously), and the two-pedal setup adds $1,200 to the sedan's bottom line. Premium models add things like heated seats and mirrors, a sunroof, foglamps and a rear spoiler. The high-zoot Limited trim adds leather seating, a power driver's seat and automatic LED headlamps.
And then there's the STI, which, at $34,495, carries the same base price as the previous model. Like the standard WRX, the STI is a sedan-only affair, but boasts extensive chassis and powertrain upgrades (stay tuned for our full drive report next week). Under the hood is a turbocharged, 2.5-liter boxer-four, producing 305 hp and 290 lb-ft of twist, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission.

2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid First Drive Review | Finally, a Subie with a plug - updated

Mon, Nov 19 2018

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. — Subarus are pretty good to drive — capable, comfortable, generally affordable, interesting — and with one exception, they all offer all-wheel drive. And they're a relatively green company. The active, outdoorsy and often socially conscious drivers appreciate things like Subaru's commitment to diverting waste from landfills. But there's a fact that's been nagging many of us who love to hug dogs, trees and the occasional Subaru: there's no electric option. Subaru, an automaker small enough to get by with an efficient fleet of conventional gas vehicles, has been able to do without building a compliance car. Still, an increasing number of Americans want to be able to plug in their vehicles. For loyal Subaru fans, brand love and eco-consciousness have increasingly difficult to reconcile. That changes now, and not because of any specific regulation, but because Subaru sees the demand. By the end of this year, Subaru will be selling its first plug-in vehicle, the 2019 Crosstrek Hybrid. While Subaru has sold a Crosstrek that was a conventional hybrid before, the new 2019 Crosstrek Hybrid is Subaru's first plug-in hybrid. Sales of the previous hybrid weren't great, though, since it was expensive. Customers didn't choose to pay a premium for a few mere extra miles per gallon. Subaru hopes the extra fuel efficiency of the plug-in will increase the appeal. Even so, like Chrysler did with the Pacifica Hybrid, Subaru opted not to put "plug-in" in the name for 2019. Despite an arguable opportunity missed to set the record straight with a new and more descriptive name, there's no mistaking this thing is a PHEV. There are "Plug-In Hybrid" badges on both front fenders and the tailgate, and the door covering the SAE charging receptacle – at the rear of the driver's side, on the opposite side of the gas fuel door – is stamped with the words "PLUG-IN" writ large. While this thing looks every bit a Subaru, even if you pop the hood to take a look at the 2.0-liter boxer engine up front, the 2019 Crosstrek Hybrid borrows its PHEV technology from Toyota – more fruit of the partnership that bore the Scion FR-S and the BRZ. It has the same 8.8-kWh lithium-ion battery pack as the Prius Prime, but in the bigger, heavier Subaru it's only good for a modest 17 miles of all-electric range. If that figure is a little disappointing to you, you're not alone. We had hoped to see at least 20 miles of EV range in this thing.
