Excellent condition, regularly serviced under extended warranty and service agreement at Cityside Subaru, just a couple of minor paint scratches (nothing is visible without a very close inspection), the car has the following aftermarket upgrades. 1. COBB air intake and airbox 2. COBB SS 3inch downpipe 3. SPT catback exhaust 4. SPT short-throw shifter and bushings 5. DEFI boost gauge 6. Grimmspeed turbo heatshield 7. Enkei RPF1 Special Edition Gunmetal 17x9 wheels (8k miles, brand new condition) 8. Bridgestone Potenza S04 Pole Position 255/40 tires (8k miles) 9. Hawk HPS brake pads (8kmiles) 10. Eibach ProKit Lowering Springs (20k miles) 11. Eibach Sway Bars (25/22mm) with Perrin Endlinks (8k miles) 12. 30/30 window tint 13. Rally Armor mudflaps 14. Red tinted taillights 15. Trunk bumper cover 16. Front license plate bracket 17. Audio improvements - Sound Ordnance B-8PTD Powered 8" Subwoofer (under the driver's seat) and JL audio front speakers 18. Other minor cosmetic/design modifications The car has been running on a Stage 2 custom map for the past 20k miles, no issues whatsoever, runs great with better than stock gas mileage. The clutch throw-out bearing has been replaced at 35k miles, no other issues at all, the clutch has about 70% percent of life left and holds the stage 2 power with no problems. This car has received all the attention and care it deserves, washed, polished and serviced regularly, no autocross, dirt roads or racing of any kind, just occasional spirited driving. The car can be returned to stock if so desired, all the parts are available. I will be happy to help with adding/removing modifications, changing maps, etc. The car is a blast to drive, incomparably better than stock audio quality, suspension professionally tuned by experts, no body roll whatsoever and phenomenal amounts of grip, both in dry and wet conditions. Crystal clear shifting thanks to SPT short-throw and bushings, re-adjusted at 35k miles. Not to mention - in my humble opinion - the best boxer rumble combination (COBB plus SPT) out there. Email or give Tom a call at 773 724 0862 if interested, the price is negotiable, the car has to go very quick. The only reason why it has to go is because I will be abroad for at least one year, I am sorry to part with it but will be happy to pass it on to a fellow enthusiast for a reasonable price. |

Watch Mark Higgins whomp the Isle of Man TT course in a 2015 WRX STI
Fri, 20 Jun 2014Subaru has made another trip to the infamous Isle of Man TT, bringing along its all-new 2015 Subaru WRX STI. The goal? Best the already impressive time set by rally ace Mark Higgins and the 2011 Impreza WRX STI on the same swirling, high-paced ribbon of tarmac. Of course, you already know how that went.
What we didn't know when the story first broke, though, was that Subaru was monitoring data. Specifically, Higgins' data. He was fitted with a monitor that would record his heart rate, breaths, skin temperature and the g forces he was faced with as he lapped the 37-plus-mile road course. While Higgins and Co. were aiming to best their 2011 time (19:56.7), this year's effort also saw a push to beat the time of the sidecar racers.
You can get a recap of the entire event, with plenty of footage and data from Higgins' lap in the exhilarating video below. Take a look.
IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013
Wed, 02 Jan 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
Subaru teases Viziv concept ahead of Geneva
Fri, 08 Feb 2013Subaru will be stocking its display at the Geneva Motor Show next month: The European debut of the Subaru Forester joins the world premiere of a diesel Outback with Lineartronic CVT and a display called Subaru 360 that showcases the "brand's history and future vision."
The genuine future-speak, however, is intended to be conveyed by the Viziv concept (click the image above to enlarge). This name "Viziv" is culled from the phrase "Vision for Innovation," and the "future-generation crossover" that bears the 25th-century name has been designed to be an embodiment of "enjoyment and peace of mind."
That's quite a holistic burden for just one crossover. In the more mundane world, the Viziv will suggest Subaru's new design and technology directions. Subaru has created a mini-site for the concept that will be updated during the show, but for now, it just lets us know that March 5 will be "the start of something exciting."
