Thinking about getting something else, thought I'd see if anyone was interseted.
2005 Subaru Impreza RS, 124K on the body, 40K on the engine. Almost no rust (had a few dings that had started when I first bought the car, treated all of them, nothing on the underside). Dark Blue in color with Tan interior. Will go with stock style brakes and 16's off of new car.
The good:
-07 WRX struts and springs with STi top hats, less than 40K on the struts.
-Injen modified "not" cold air intake (cut the intake and put a K&N filter on it to quiet it down)
-40K 2006 Engine with hard wired "on/off" switch for VVL. Engine came from Gorham Auto salvage with 29K out of an automatic.
-Sti rear sway bar
-Tactrix tuned to 06 2.5i engine, and tuned for Intake for a 2.5 N/A she's pretty quick
-$250 Alpine Radio with serious wired, and USB port. 2 new front speakers (alpine)
The bad:
-Car was in a fender bender with a truck before I bought it. Bumper has minor damage, headlight was replaced, and the hood was replaced. Hood was painted to match, but the finish isn't the same (isn't as glossy)
-I recantly started working on it with a tactrix cable, and noted knock events while shifting and at idle. I did my best to tune them out, with some sucess, also having read many forums it is commen for cars with non original engines to have this problem, and since events do not log while under accsseleration (only at idle and while downshifting) the general feeling in the subaru world is that there is little if any damage to the engine. Engine has been in the car for 11K miles, with no audable detonation, no leaks, not unhappy sounds.
I want a hatch, possibly a WRX, but I'm not in a huge rush, figured I'd see if anyone was looking for something like this. I'm not expecting to get what I put into it, but I don't plan on parting with her for less than 5, and I'd be happyer with 6. She's got a new motor and a lot of life left in her.
If interested please e-mail for pictures, any other information:
