Hello eBayers,
Up for sale is my 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX STi in great condition, with less than 84k on it. I purchased the car about a month ago from Porsche of Arlington for over $20k, and two weeks after the car overheated on a drive to New York. The car will crank but it wont turn over. The compression readings are 80, 35, 75, 30. I'm putting the car on eBay to see if I will sell the car for an amount I'd accept, or else I've already gotten started with a reputable motorsport company who would rebuild the engine for me. This is the perfect car for someone who's been wanting to build a 500+ hp monster, with a blown engine and a great place to start a build. The rest of the car is in fantastic shape; Brembo brakes, 6-speed transmission, original unpainted gold BBS rims, it is the essence of a dream WRB STi. Currently, I have the car set up to have engine pulled as of Wednesday, so all decisions or commitments will need to be made by then.
Body:
-Stock
-Original BBS Gold rims
-Has some small nicks around the car, nothing big (there are a couple stone chips on the driver door that I took a picture of), also some rash on the bottom of the front bumper
Engine:
-Upgraded intake
-Front Mount Intercooler
-Turbo XS BOV
-3" Catback Exhaust
-ROM Raider Tune
Interior:
-Stock seats (I don't want to say mint, but it's as clean as a whistle)
-Jensen touch screen MP4 with iPod connectivity, USB, AUX, bluetooth, GPS, etc.
-Boost gauge
-Ex. Temperature gauge (not connected)
-Trunk Pre-Wired for Subwoofers
All and all the car is in great shape, and I'm kind of hoping the car doesn't sell so that I'm forced to build my dream car- but it's just not a practical situation for me right now. However, it doesn't mean I'll part with the car for an indecent sum of money.
I would be willing to discuss putting in a rebuilt long block for you for about $4,000.
There may be some information I missed, but I feel like I covered just about everything. By no means does the car have any other problems other than a non running engine. The drivetrain is impeccable, never grinded gears on me. The brakes are amazing, and this is just a great car.
Mind you, "good" condition book value is $22,743. That is considering it to be under excellent, and very good, but one higher than fair. Of course that's with a running engine.
Please let me know if you have any questions before you bid, I'd like you to bid with confidence.
Thank you.

Mark Higgins sets new Isle of Man record in Subaru STI
Wed, 04 Jun 2014Subaru has done it again, setting a new four-wheel lap record around the 37.75-mile TT Mountain Course at the Isle of Man. Mark Higgins in a 2015 WRX STI rocketed through the country roads at an average speed of 116.40 miles per hour to circle the track in 19 minutes, 26 seconds, thereby beating his previous record of 19 minutes 56.7 seconds from 2011 in an STI.
According to Subaru, speeds during the lap ranged from as little as 30 mph to over 160 mph. The STI was mostly stock with the only major mechanical change being different springs and dampers to handle the course's famous bumps at such sustained high speeds. For safety, it also had a rollcage, racing harness, and fire suppression system.
"It was quite a lap we did today and I am really happy to have another record in the bank. The chassis of the new car is so much better it really allowed me to pick up time in each sector in the more technical parts of the course," said Higgins about the run in the Subaru.
Subaru mulls motorsports return, nixes small CUV plans
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The Subaru WRX STI breaking the automotive lap record at the Isle of Man might be just the beginning of the headlines trumpeting a Subaru racecar. According to the latest rumors, the Japanese brand is looking at taking motorsports more seriously in the future. That could possibly even mean endurance racing at Le Mans.
According to Auto Express, the brand is mulling a greater participation in motorsport, but the big question is where. The World Rally Championship isn't a certainty because it now favors smaller cars like the Volkswagen Polo. Subaru still competes in series like Rally America and Global Rallycross, but there are bigger stages to play on.
What's interesting, is that this commitment to motorsports comes right as the automaker is denying plans to build a small CUV for its passenger car lineup. According to Auto Express, the company has no intention of developing a crossover smaller than the current XV Crosstrek. Even if the sales are there, it would just cost too much to develop. In the US, at least, the XV is doing great with sales up 42 percent in July.
Subaru lifts leg at Super Bowl, goes with Puppy Bowl ads instead
Mon, 28 Jan 2013There will be many automakers spending millions upon millions of dollars advertising in the Super Bowl next weekend, but Subaru will not be one of them. Instead, the automaker will be catering toward animal - specifically dog - lovers with a set of commercials for the 2014 Subaru Forester that will appear during Puppy Bowl IX on Animal Planet.
The ads all build on Subaru's reputation of being a dog-friendly brand, and its latest "Dog Tested. Dog Approved" campaign will feature four 20-second spots. Of the four, "Tailgate" and "On The Lot" are definitely the most entertaining, while "Let's Talk Financing" and, especially, "Lint Roller" are snoozers.
Scroll down to watch all four spots, and there's also a press release listing other initiatives Subaru is planning to attract dog lovers. If you like dog commercials, you should check out the newest spot from Volkswagen, too.
