This is a 1999 Subaru Station Wagon in fair condition. I have owned it since 2003 and there was one prior owner before that. The mileage in the listing is not accurate because the odometer has been working intermittently for the past 6 years. The car runs and drives fine but in the past few months the engine has been running hot. My mechanic diagnosed the problem as bad cylinder heads or head gaskets. He also recommended installing a new timing belt, water pump and thermostat. Since I have put lots of work into the car over the years (including replacing the engine in 2005) I have decided to invest that money into a new vehicle. Perhaps someone more mechanically inclined than I could do the repairs.

Recent work (last 4 years)
  • Replaced tires
  • Replaced radiator and hose
  • Replaced front and rear brake pads and rotors
  • Replaced catalytic converter
  • Automatic transmission change
  • Front differential fluid change
  • Oil Change / Fluids

Other than running hot, the car drives fine. There are a few quirks and other wear-and-tear issues which do not affect the car's basic functionality:

  • Cruise Control does not work.
  • Air Conditioning does not work.
  • Small amount of water leaks into vehicle during heavy rains (through sunroof)
  • Odometer / Speedometer works intermittently and has been for the past 6 years or so (See description above. I would estimate it to have up to 10,000 more miles than the odometer actually reads)
  • Check Engine Light is on and has been on since 2007.
  • Sometimes has trouble starting during cold weather.
  • Some minor scratches and rust spots throughout exterior.
  • Trunk handle is falling off, but still functions
  • Some plastic pieces covering certain parts of exterior are loose or missing (most notably driverside windshield cover...see pictures for detail)
  • Cigarette power outlet does not work.
  • Various stains in interior carpeting (most likely from art supplies, possibly coffee or cola)
  • Radio antenna no longer recedes into car. It can, however, be manually pushed down if need be.

In the years that I have owned this car it has served me well with no major problems aside from the above inconveniences. Accident, smoke and pet free. The tape player and stereo work great and the seats fold down if you need to haul stuff. Spare tire included (never been used). Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.

Acura may go all AWD in bid to mimic Subaru's success

Mon, 13 Oct 2014

Acura's struggles have been well publicized. The Honda-owned luxury brand doesn't seem sure of where it's going or what it's trying to accomplish, with its cars and marketing lacking a coherent theme. Now, a new report from Automotive News claims that the brand could follow the success of Subaru and (to a lesser extent) Audi, and adopt all-wheel-drive as standard across its model range.
"I think that's the way we should go," Acura boss Koichi Fukuo told Automotive News.
Acura already offers some form of all-wheel drive on every vehicle in its line aside from the lamentable ILX sedan. That could change as Acura begins rolling out next-generation versions of its still relatively new stable of sedans and crossovers.

Watch Higgins' mind-blowing Subaru WRX STI Isle of Man record lap in first-person

Fri, 27 Jun 2014

Have you gotten sick of Subaru and the Isle of Man? Good, we'd hope not, because of all the videos we've posted so far, today's is the crown jewel. In-car, around the notoriously treacherous race track, with commentary from David Higgins himself.
It gets better, though. Overlaid with the video is the same biometric data that we showed you last week. The result is a heart-pumping, 22-minute video of the record-breaking sprint around the entirety of the Isle of Man TT circuit at a truly wild pace. Higgins commentary, meanwhile, simply adds to the experience of hurtling across the landscape. Subaru has also put together a second video, highlighting the WRX STI that was used in the lap.
You can view both of those videos, as well as a short press release from Subaru, below. Scroll down and take a look.
