For Sale: 2011 Subaru STI GRB Sedan with over 100K invested
VIN: Private message 
Miles: 14,190 on the body, a little more than 7,000 on the build 
Price: First $42,000 takes everything. That's right, you could make money parting it out if you have the time, but I got a baby on the way, and I need to sell her. I've been offered 32 31 and 27 by dealerships locally.

I have owned this car since 50 miles, I know everything about it, and I was there during every transformation, upgrade, mod, show, etc. I am the driver and the person responsible for the complete build coordination therefore I can explain the fabrication, installation, suspension alignment, motor build process, balancing, parts purchases, whatever you want to know about it, I can tell you. Please ask specific questions with regard to something you want to know, if you ask me to itemize every little thing, I will kindly refer you to Rallysport Direct or Full-Race's website orVividRacing.com to look at prices, The cost of this car was 37,500 when I bought it from the SOLON AUTO Dealership in Pueblo Colorado in August 2011. The cost of parts has been well over $50,000 alone and I'm not including the cost for dyno time, tuning, any installation, fabrication, etc, therefore I have estimated that over $100,000 has been invested. 

includes both sets of wheels 
19" Advan RZ's Gunmetal with Nitto Invo's AND 

Brand new 19" VOLK TE37 Tokyo Time Attack Diamond Cut with Brand new Advan Neova tires

three sets of suspension, currently installed is Air Lift Performance Air ride, but will include OEM Struts and coils, as well as the suspension used in most of the photographs which is Tein Flex Coilovers

My heart and soul went into making this car what it is. I have spent so much time and money making my car what it is that it is hard to imagine life without her. Unfortunately, my family needs me more than my car and I'm hoping that another Enthusiast can enjoy what I've been blessed with putting together. This is a turn key, completed project, take it to the track, next big show, or drive it to work like I did, all in the same day. My STI has won 2nd place at SPOCOM 2012 and 3rd place at SPOCOM 2013 Hawaii. Various magazines have also requested to feature it, I can discuss that with potential buyers. Also if you have a question about a part, please feel free to ask, I will answer you, and I can take a picture if you need to see something specific, it's not a problem and I'm glad to help anybody considering this purchase with evidence of the high quality and pride I have taken building this outstanding machine. There is so much I may have missed something when I wrote up the description, but I do keep receipts and all of the parts have been purchased from Reputable dealers like Full Race and RallysportDirect so you can verify the cost on your own. Some of the items, like the HKS Exhaust which I bought from RSD for almost $2,000 I have never seen again. So I will make sure that the receipts are retained for the next buyer so they can have the same confidence in the quality of everything that I have. Jarrad from PDX did all of my tuning, the car has spent about 3 and a half hours combined on 3 separate occasions to get the tuning where it is right now. Before switching to E85 when I got back to california, I was running premium pump gas and with about 23lbs of boost at peak, over boost was set for 24 on the eboost2 and I was hitting a solid 478 awhp, and 410 awtq, this was prior to the most recent charge piping my friend and I designed and tigged up. I really just need to sell her now for medical reasons and I'm at that point where I may have to accept the high offer from a local dealership because I'm in a tough spot. I never thought I would let her go for less than 60k, but here I am ready to take about half of that, there is no catch, nothing is broken and even if it was, I could build an engine for a lot less than this is costing me in the long run, feel free to do a compression check or whatever but I need a serious offer in the next day or so or the stealership is gonna rape me. Also, I've got most of the receipts for the parts, and if I don't RallySportDirect, Jarrad, and Geoff at Full Race can vouch for my legitimacy. If I was looking at this I would think it's to good to be true and something must be wrong, but it's completely the opposite.

Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S sales disappointing worldwide?

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Okay, folks - it appears we've got a problem. The Toyota GT86, Europe's counterpart to our own beloved Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S coupes, is apparently not selling too well. This, according to Toyota's European Vice President of Research and Development, Gerald Killman, is what's limiting plans for additional variants of the rear-drive coupe.
"A faster version of that car would be at the top of most people's wish lists, but like the cabriolet, it is hard to justify a business case to push either model into production based on the current sales," Killman told AutoExpress. "Personally, I think that engine could use a little bit more," he added.
More troubling is that slow sales aren't limited to the Euro-spec car, with Killman claiming that the GT86 have been missing sales targets in major markets around the globe. It may not be that the US is one of those major markets, though. Scion's Vice President, Doug Murtha, tells Autoblog that his brand is happy with the sales of its version of the GT86, the FR-S. 18,000 units were sold last year, which Murtha says is "generally in line with original expectations for the car."

2014 Subaru Forester gets big nod of approval from Consumer Reports

Wed, 22 May 2013

While more and more buyers seem to be opting for the functionality of car-based crossover vehicles every day, it's rare that your read much in the way of passionate praise for one. And, while Consumer Reports doesn't exactly lavish written paeans on the Subaru Forester in its latest review - that's just not its style - it did give the CUV a remarkably high overall score.
Praising its excellent fuel economy, visibility, roomy interior and a whole lot more, the testing publication bestowed an overall score of 88 out of 100 on the Forester. That's a really excellent number for just about any vehicle, but it's also a top-of-the-class mark for the Forester's small CUV division. Just about the only major gripe was that of ride quality.
Most of the direct competitors to the Forester have earned CR marks in the mid-70s. The Honda CR-V is some 11 points behind, for instance, while the Toyota RAV4 and the Mazda CX-5 earn scores of 75 and 74, respectively.

Subaru previews rally-ready WRX STI for Global RallyCross

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Subaru's long and distinguished history in the world of rallying is about to get another chapter, as it's set to field a team in the Global RallyCross Championship. The car? The all-new WRX STI.
Yes, Subaru will be fielding a GRC challenger, with drivers Bucky Lasek and Sverre Isachsen at the helm. This particular car was teased earlier this week, and is a preview of the eventual GRC model which will launch this fall. The race-ready STI boasts a custom widebody kit with a carbon-fiber rear wing. The roof scoop and the mirrors are also made of carbon fiber, while the wheels are provided by Method. As with all GRC contenders this year, the WRX STI is shod in Yokohama spec rubber. It's not clear what sort of engine sits under the scooped hood, although we imagine we'll find out before the season kicks off in a few months.
Perhaps even more exciting is word that Subaru will also prepare a version of the WRX STI for stage rallies, with Travis Pastrana and David Higgins fielding the new car in the Rally America Championship. That car should arrive later this year.
