Up for sale is my 1999 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS 2-door coupe. I am the second owner. In the last year, I have had the brakes, clutch, timing belt, water pump, right front axle, spark plugs, and all gaskets replaced. I also had Michelin tires put on the car in the summer of 2011, and after roughly 15,000 miles, they have plenty of tread left. There is a minor rattle and steering wheel shake from about 60-75 mph that a tire tech attributed to fix-a-flat that I had needed to use on two of the tires after I ran over some nails--but he told me that unless I found it to be very bothersome (which I have not), there was no need to replace them, and I've driven several thousand miles with no problems since then. As you will see, I have got New York plates (and clean New York title in hand), but live in Denver, where I moved in August for grad school. 


The interior is very clean, with the rare custom leather that you will only find on a handful of RSes. (I do have the 2.5 RS floor mats, as well as all-weather mats, which will be included, but did not make it into the pictures because I was having them cleaned at the time). The exterior is also in nice shape, as you will see from the attached pictures. There are scratches on the left rear bumper, and front bumper, as documented in the pictures. Other than that, there are simply a few minor scratches and dings that would only be spotted if one was looking closely for them, and the original paint has held up very well. 

The engine, 5-speed manual transmission, and brakes all work flawlessly. Except for the performance shocks that the previous owner had put on the car, this RS is entirely stock, and I can say with confidence that you will be hard pressed to find another one of these increasingly rare cars in such nice shape. On that note, I recently learned that only 1,500 manual RSes were produced in 1999 (for more info, see cars101.com), and when you consider how many have been destroyed or modified, cars such as this one are rapidly becoming even harder to find. This is reflected in their actual sales prices, which for nice examples, have been considerably higher than KBB listings--and from what I understand, the value of these cars has actually been going up in the last couple years. 

This car is a lot of fun to drive, is reliable, and gets very solid gas mileage (usually 27+ mpg per tank)--and with the work that I've recently had performed on it, am confident that it will be good to go for quite awhile. I am sure that both the Subaru enthusiast and someone looking for a fun, safe, reliable car, will be equally happy with its purchase. I am simply selling because I found a deal on a newer car that was too hard to pass up. If you need help with shipping, and you are far outside of the Colorado area, I will be glad to work with whatever company you hire, or to pick you up from Denver International Airport if you want to fly in and drive it home yourself.

Please do note that I will also have the car for sale locally, so reserve the right to end the listing should I find a buyer here. Thanks very much for looking, and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

2013 Subaru Legacy and Outback recalled over potential steering loss

Wed, 15 May 2013

Subaru today announced a recall that affects 5,379 Legacy sedan and Outback wagon models in the United States. All of the affected 2013 model-year vehicles were built between February 15 and June 15 of 2012.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "the inner and outer shafts of the steering column assembly may become disengaged from one another" in these vehicles. If that happens, the driver can lose the ability to steer the vehicle, which could obviously lead to all sorts of harmful things.
Subaru will notify owners of the problem, and affected models will have their steering columns replaced at dealerships, free of charge. Scroll down for the official NHSTA report.

Subaru facing class-action suit over excess oil use

Tue, 22 Jul 2014

A recently filed lawsuit in federal court against Subaru of America and its parent Fuji Heavy Industries claims that several recent models burn an excessive amount of oil. The case, which is seeking class-action status, covers examples of the 2011-2014 Forester, 2013 Legacy and 2013 Outback with the 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and the 2012-2013 Impreza and 2013 XV Crosstrek with the 2.0-liter four-cylinder.
The suit alleges that Subaru knew about the excessive oil consumption but didn't fix the problem, according to USA Today. It contends that owners have to spend an unreasonable amount of money to keep these models topped up with Texas tea, and that the people represented wouldn't have bought the vehicle if they had known that this could happen.
As proof of Subaru's knowledge of excessive oil use, the lawsuit cites four technical service bulletins from the company telling dealers about the issue, although, that would seem to partially invalidate the claim that the automaker hasn't attempted to fix things. The case was filed on behalf of two men, one with a 2014 Forester and the other with a 2013 Outback. "Following an extensive investigation, we now look forward to litigating the case," said Matthew Schelkopf, an attorney for the plaintiffs, to USA Today.

Refreshed 2015 Subaru Impreza priced from $18,195*

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

It was just a few weeks ago that Subaru unveiled its refreshed 2015 Impreza with refinements like a tweaked front fascia, upgraded infotainment system, standard rearview camera, slightly better fuel economy and other goodies. The Japanese automaker has finally decided to tell us what all of this new kit costs, and it actually hasn't increased too much over last year.
A base model 2015 Impreza 2.0i sets back buyers $18,195 for the four-door sedan or $18,695 for the five-door hatch (*not including $795 destination and delivery on all models). All of those prices are $300 more than the 2014 model year.
Moving up to the Premium trim requires $20,995 for the sedan or $21,495 for the five-door and adds 16-inch wheels, heated seats, heated mirrors and a windshield wiper de-icer. The Sport Premium pack, offered exclusively on the hatch, goes further with features like body-color side sills, 17-inch wheels, foglights, and more for $20,995 with the five-speed manual or $21,995 with the CVT.
