Lateral-g Forums - 2005 Subaru WRX STI, 37K miles, mint.

Well, it's Japanese Pro-touring anyways!

Jody (Camcojb) can vouch for how spotless I keep my cars, including this one.

I am the original owner, I bought this car new from Livermore Subaru with 9 miles on it. It has been 100% trouble free and has been a GREAT car. I'm pretty OCD when it comes to maintaining and cleaning my vehicles.

Since I know it will be asked... I'm selling because losing the payment will put me in a far better position to buy a house and also put twin turbos on the Chevelle this winter. I'm also tired of having a daily driver that is so nice I'm paranoid to park it anywhere I'm not familiar with.

Details:
37XXX miles
Oil changes with Mobil-1 every 4K miles
All maintenance up to date (performed by me), 30K service done with all fresh fluids (power steering, coolant, clutch, brake fluid, transmission, rear diff.) Coolant & rear diff fluid were Subaru OEM.
Fresh (<2K miles) RE-01R tires, 245/45/17. I got 34K miles out of the original RE070's.
I have a maintenance log with everything I've done.
Car has always washed & waxed with Zaino.
It's always been filled with Chevron 91 since day 1.
No curb rash on any wheels.
Has never been driven in any weather condition more inclement than rain.
Always garaged at night and if it's not raining or really windy it's covered with a Weathershield car cover at work (cover included.)

Mods:
Currently wingless but I also have the original trunk with STI wing.
Borla Hush exhaust, I have both the ball & socket adapter and a 3" flat flange, Kartboy hangers.
Catless Invidia downpipe, coated by Crucial
Cobb AccessPort (V1) Stage 2 with out of the box program
Autometer gauge pod with VDO oil temp & boost gauges
I have the original downpipe & exhaust.

Stereo:
RAAM audio fiberglass underseat sub enclosure with an Arc Audio ARC series 10D2 sub
RAAMmat and ensolite foam in all doors & package tray
Front speakers are Diamond Hex S600S
Rear speakers are 4" MB Quart components
Lighting Audio carbon capacitor under driver's seat
Soundstream Rubicon 702 for front components
Soundstream Rubicon 302 for rear components
Soundstream Rubicon 302 for sub
Eclipse CD8443 head unit with 8V preouts
Stinger "Expert" interconnects
All power wires covered in mil-spec braided polyethylene sleeving. Install was done completely by me.

Bad points...

The nose & hood have some slight rock chips, but none are down to bare metal. It's my daily driver after all and you can't avoid them all. There is one very small rock ding in the hood that is located near the front edge of the hood. My dentpro guy could not reach inside because the hood is double walled there. The dry ice trick may work but I haven't tried.

The passenger door needed some paintless dent repair, unfortunately one of the dings was sharp enough it left a little mark in the paint. The door is extremely straight though; it doesn't even show in pictures and you have to get right on top of it to notice where the work was performed.

Note: the PS front door and the hood are the only panels that have ever needed paintless dent work. The rest of the panels are untouched without any dings.

It will probably need fresh front brake pads and the rotors surfaced in what I estimate to be 8K miles based on my current driving habits.

Price
Asking $25K with all the mods, stereo, stock parts included.
$24.5K with stereo left in but drivetrain back to stock
$24K with the mods left but the stock stereo & speakers reinstalled
$23.5K completely back to stock.

PM me if interested. The car is located in the California central valley and has never been in any weather conditions harsher than rain.

Thanks,
Troy
