Purchased used in April 2012 for $21,321.97 with $17,555 miles on it.

I've put all nearly every single one of those 40,000 miles on the car via highway miles for work across North Carolina, Virginia, and South Carolina. Typically averages 23.5 miles gallon combined. I am technically the 4th owner -- but really only the second owner. The middle two owners were 2 different auto dealerships that just had the car in inventory over a period of 8 months before I purchased. The 1st owner was corporate ownership from a company in Pennsylvania that I actually spoke with before purchasing from a local dealer in North Carolina who had left their registration information in the car. Never had any problems or accidents with the vehicle. They traded the car in on 8/23/11 and I purchased in April of 2012. All of this will be confirmed by a Carfax. The car has a clear title and is smoke-free.

Forester comes loaded with: 4-cyl PZEV 2.5 liter engine, Automatic 4 speed, AWD, hillstart assist, traction control, vehicle dynamic control, ABS (4-wheel), keyless entry (two sets of keys and remotes), air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, cruise control, power steering tilt wheel, auxiliary audio input/ipod integration, am/fm stereo, single disc CD, dual air bags, side air bags, heated premium cloth seats, panorama roof (extra large sunroof), privacy glass (tined rear windows), daytime running lights, roof rack, premium allow wheels, just put new Cooper CS4 Touring tires on it last year -- approximately 90% tread life remains, large trunk with storage underneath and spare tire.

Mechanically perfect -- no known issues whatsoever. Forester has been serviced every 3500 miles since purchased. There are just a couple of exterior blemishes to note: right rear bumper scuffed a little due to someone slightly scraping me in a parking lot and driving off. Additionally, on the right rear end of the roof rack finish is slightly scraped off in one concentrated area. I was parked at a restaurant near a stop sign and backed up underneath the stop sign in a slightly bone-headed move that allowed one corner of the stop sign to scrape this mark. Sorry about that one.

Otherwise, nothing else to note. Interior is very clean with the sporadic routine nick or scuff. Nothing noticeable.

I'm selling because my second child its on its way and we have too much money tied into car payments that is needed elsewhere. Hate to sell the Sub since I've just had it a couple of years, but other things in life are taking precedence at the moment. My loss is your gain! Local pick-up only. The vehicle is still under finance and my local credit union will have the title waiting on the buyer at pick-up -- so title is essentially in hand. We will meet at the bank and transfer payment and title. I will pass along those directions upon receipt of $500 deposit due at selling. Please read and ask specific questions -- no warranty is expressed or implied.

Subaru recalls 48.5k Legacy, Outback models for steering defect

Fri, May 13 2016

The Basics: Subaru is recalling 48,500 Legacy sedans and Outback CUVs from model years 2016 and 2017. The Problem: According to the NHTSA bulletin, the steering column in affected vehicles may not have been machined properly. This could cause the angle of the steering wheel to have no impact on the direction of travel – the wheel will turn and the car won't. Injuries/Deaths: Neither Subaru nor NHTSA have indicated whether there were any injuries or deaths associated with this recall. The fix: Subaru will inspect steering columns on the affected vehicles and replace them as necessary. Naturally, repairs will be done free of charge. If you own one: Subaru and NHTSA advise that owners do not drive their vehicles until they've been inspected. While Subaru is sending letters to owners, dealers will also reach out directly to schedule an on-sight inspection or arrange to have the vehicle towed to the dealership. More information: If repairs are necessary, Subaru will cover all costs associated with towing and provide affected consumers a free loaner.

Xcar rates AWD vs. FWD vs. RWD

Tue, Feb 24 2015

With snow and ice blanketing large swathes of the United States over the past few weeks, commuting hasn't been easy. Among some drivers, there's an ongoing debate about how much all-wheel drive really helps when it gets slippery and whether rear-drive is as bad in slick conditions as many people think. Xcar Films puts some of those beliefs to the test in its latest video by showing off three very different cars taking on a trio of low-grip challenges. Xcar's picks for the test include the fairly plebeian, all-wheel drive Subaru Impreza, the somewhat plush, rear-drive BMW 120d and the sporty, front-drive Renault Megane RS 275 Trophy. Things start out easy with a hydraulic plate forcing the back end out on a wet skid pad. From there, the tests get really interesting with a slalom on simulated ice, and the cars finish with a high-speed cornering challenge through a soaked turn. While an obvious winner emerges in the end, keep in mind this is hardly a scientific test of grip. For better accuracy, all three vehicles should be wearing identical tires, and the same driver should be behind the wheel of each one. Still, Xcar's examination is a fun chance to see how vehicles react when things get slick.
