Background Information
I am the original owner of this car. It was my daily driver from new through 2012. It has always been garaged. I have always used synthetic oil, usually Mobil 1, since new. The car has been well maintained. I have maintenance receipts going back to day 1.
Options that came from the factory include winter mats, rear cargo tray, roof cross bars, auto dimming mirror and security system. I have the factory literature and original paperwork from when I purchased the car but not the window sticker.
Overall this car presents excellently – very sharp and unusually clean. I have been a particularly fussy owner.
I am selling this car because I have several other cars and find myself driving the car about once a month simply to keep fresh gas in it, rotate the tires, and keep everything lubricated. I have averaged less than a thousand miles per year these last few years. This is too good a car to sit. It needs to be owned and enjoyed by an enthusiast.
Maintenance Milestones
• Timing belt changed at 100K miles
• Transmission rebuilt by a local Subaru specialist shop, Agile Automotive, at 88,000 miles, new, single plate WRX clutch installed at the same time.
Pros: The car is in unusually good condition given its age.
• The exterior paint is in excellent condition due to my waxing it at least annually. I had it professionally detailed in the last year as well. A lifetime being garaged has helped.
• Everything on the car works/functions excellently. The engine is strong and consumes no oil.
• Interior leather is in excellent condition, in many ways it looks like new with no cuts, tears or staining in the leather. Carpets are in very good condition.
Cons:
• The car suffers from the sticky dash problem. I did not realize this until after the factory recall period ended as my car was always garaged.
• The car has minor scratches and imperfections on the exterior, mostly on the urethane bumper covers. I have included some photo of the imperfections. Wheels have some curb marks.
• Driver’s door had a rusty weep hole at the inside bottom of the door where the outer door skin and the inside panel meet. I suspect this is a consequence of the frameless window design. I rust reformed it, sealed and painted it 5 years back and have had no issues since. It is not visible from the outside of the car. There is no rust, bubbling, etc. on the body at all.
