About this 2004 Subaru Forester XT (Turbocharged):

I am the original and only owner of this Subaru Forester XT. The majority of the miles on this vehicle are from highway driving which explains why I got 187,000 miles from the original clutch, which was still good when it got replaced by the Subaru dealer in July 2012. Prior to this the only other major repair was with the timing belt and two timing valves being replaced in January 2011. I religiously took this car into Jiffy Lube every 3,000 mile for oil changes and have had the transmission and transfer case oils changed several times as well. In March 2013 the check engine light came on and I took it to Subaru to be checked. I was told it was caused by a misfire and they reset the on-board computer. I drove it several days and then the light came back on. By the time I made it to Subaru the light went out by itself, however the code was still coming up as a misfire. I commute 130 miles each day to work and felt with 207,370 miles on a car that has served me well, it was time to buy another (Yep, I enjoyed this car so much, I bought a new 2014 Subaru Forester again). So where does this leave you the potential buyer? You will be buying a car that has been taken care of and properly routinely serviced. However, it does require some attention and is being sold "as-is" with the following known facts:

In need of service:

The front bumper is misaligned slightly from hitting a deer while going about 25 mph. The deer got up and ran away; however, left a dimple on the front bumper, on the passenger side. The dimple poped itself out over the summer, but there is a small gap to where the bumper fits next to the passenger front panel (see photo).
The trip meter is functional but will not reset zero.
The front driver's seat has the edge of the leather worn on the drivers side and has cracked.
The driver's side floor mat has a hole from wear, also the carpet under the mat is worn with a hole.
There is one fog light in the front that needs replacing accessible from under the car (these seems to go out every couple of years).
The check engine light has come on about four times, it is currently off (see pictures). This will need to be serviced for inspection.
The front of the hood has some chips from constant highway driving.
The mudflap on the passenger rear tire has a rub mark wear a car rubbed against it (no body damaged occurred).

Maintenance History:

Oil and filter routinely change every 3,000 miles.
Differential and transmission fluid changed every couple of years.
May 19, 2012 Windshield was replaced. (these cars are rock magnets on the highway).
January 13, 2011 Timing belt and two timing valves were replaced because of rough idle.
July 23, 2012 The clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, and bearings were replace at 185,000 mile.
April 2013 was retired and is stored inside my garage.

Condition and Features:

6 Disc factory CD Player
Heated front seats.
Rearview mirror dims and has built-in compass.
Fog Lights
Air condition works great!
Good tires and brakes all the way around (see photos)
Aluminum Alloy Rims in good condition.
Newly replaced windshield
Newly replace timing belt, and gaskets.
Newly replace clutch, flywheel, pressure plate and bearing.
Start right up and runs very good.

Conclusion:

I was the one and only owner of this car. It has been taken care of properly and had all its routine services performed. I have many receipts to show all work performed. The car has been in minor accidents and each were reported to my insurance agent. The car had never suffered any major body or frame damage nor has it required me to have any bodywork done to it. Many of the miles driven on this car were highway miles, This car does need service to fix the intermittent check engine light. The car vin IS: JF1SG69674G763747 (see photo) and it is currently being stored inside my garage.

Junkyard Gem: 1982 Subaru BRAT

Thu, Jun 22 2017

Like the AMC Eagle, the Subaru BRAT was a big sales hit in Colorado, much more than in the rest of North America, and you still see plenty of examples of both vehicles on Colorado streets ... and in Colorado wrecking yards. Here's a 1982 BRAT with camper shell that made it to age 35 before being forcibly retired. Based on the Subaru Leone (which was sold in the United States as "The Subaru"), the BRAT was a lightweight, four-wheel-drive truck that could slog through mud and snow, but didn't slurp gas quite as hard as other 4WD trucks. They rusted instantly in the Midwest and Northeast, but held together pretty well in the West. This one has the "Twin-Halo" sunroof setup. How much power do you need in a pickup? In 1982, 72 horses, from this 1,781cc boxer-four engine, were enough for BRAT buyers. Subaru evaded paying the Chicken Tax on early BRATs by installing jumpseats in the bed, which (legally speaking) made the BRAT a four-seat passenger car; like most BRATs that end up in junkyards, the jumpseats are long gone from this one. Many personal-injury lawsuits later, the jumpseats were nixed and BRAT buyers had to pay the tax. Note the Subaru-owner-stereotype-defying bumper stickers on the back window. It's faded and bent and worn out, but will provide parts for the many BRATs (and Leones) still roaming Colorado streets and trails. This content is hosted by a third party.

2020 Subaru WRX and WRX STI Series.White sneak in one more special edition

Wed, Nov 20 2019

LOS ANGELES — This generation of Subaru WRX and WRX STI is nearly done, and has celebrated with special versions here and back in the home country. But the company isn't finished with limited edition models yet, as proven by the 2020 Subaru WRX and WRX STI Series.White model (their punctuation, not ours). Just like past Series.Whatever models, the Series.White is distinguished on the outside by an exclusive Ceramic White paint scheme. It's accented by black mirror caps, black badging and matte bronze wheels. On the WRX, they're 18-inch wheels from Subaru, and the STI gets 19-inch BBS wheels. The paint color isn't the only perk, as each car comes with a selection of desirable options. The WRX basically gets the Premium trim's Performance Package, plus a few goodies. That means it gets Recaro seats, Brembo four-piston front calipers and two-piston rear calipers, LED adaptive headlights, and the sunroof is deleted. It also gets a special Bilstein suspension setup that hasn't been offered on the WRX before. The WRX STI gets a Bilstein suspension, too, as well as Brembo six-piston front calipers and two-piston rear calipers, Recaro seats, stiffer steering rack mounts and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Neither model gets any extra power, though. Subaru will only build 500 examples of each model, a total of 1,000 cars. The WRX Series.White has a price of $34,895, and the WRX STI costs $43,595. These special Subarus go on sale next year.
